I turn it off sometimes too. But you have to appreciate that time is one of our most fundamental illusions. If a person really breaks all the way through it, lots of typical goals that people have become quite meaningless. Eg:
1. planning for an early retirement in 10 years time becomes meaningless.
2. performing very well at work so as to get promoted early next year becomes meaningless
3. exercising regularly so as to lose 5 kg in two months becomes meaningless
I think that if you successfully transcend the illusion of time, the necessary corollary is that you've practically attained enlightenment, and transcended desire as well.
