Its Own Time (theory)

Its Own Time theory suggests that each object or system has its own internal sense of time, independent of an external clock. Instead of uniform ticking like a clock on the wall, an object's internal processes—like biological rhythms or quantum states—determine its experience of time. This idea highlights that different systems may perceive or measure time uniquely based on their internal dynamics, emphasizing the relativity of time perception across various scales or contexts. It challenges the notion of a universal, absolute time, proposing instead that time can be an intrinsic property linked to an individual system's internal state.
