New Time is designed as a result of a globally integrated world’s exponential speed of newly created technologies. New Time is a working perfection. It is the ideal transformation of time, conforming different time systems from those with borders to a singular system. A system that functions on a universal level.

The first change to the New Calendar begins with the average second. By changing the length of an average second from n = Second to n + .022221 = Second, each hour has an additional .57 minutes (60 seconds = 1 minute), giving the length of each day an additional 11 minutes. This forces the year into a simple 360 day cycle, eliminating the extra 5.25 days that deregulate the year. A day is translated and illustrated by 360°, the completion of a geometric circle and synonymous with days in the year. The day is broken down into quarters, every six hours = one quarter (90°).

The day broken up into four quarters instead of one half allows for increased flexibility in sleep time and a shorter standardized work day. For the optimization of jobs and hard-working time, it is normal for a work-day to take up 90 degrees of the day. This is beneficial to employer and employee of standard 90-degree jobs, and doesn’t affect self-employed or work-at-home cases.

The week has been adjusted from the 7-day cycle to the 6-day cycle for global and mathematical continuity. In mathematics, a perfect number is defined as an integer; the sum of its proper positive divisors, excluding itself. Six (6) is the first perfect number, because 1, 2 and 3 are its proper positive divisors and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. The next perfect number is 28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14. The next perfect numbers are 496 and 8128. Six is also the number of sides on a cube. Then, six is the number of inhabited continents, and the total number of continents if Eurasia (Europe plus Asia) is considered a single continent. The religious significance for the number 6 is important (discussed in The New Way), 6 is the number of days taken by God to create the world, and it was believed that the number was chosen by him because it was perfect. Saint Augustine (354-430) writes in his famous text The City of God:
Six is a number perfect in itself, and not because God created all things in six days; rather, the converse is true. God created all things in six days because the number is perfect...
Religion goes on to proclaim that there are Six Cardinal Directions : north, south, east, west, heaven, and land. Finally, the number six is important in compliance with the new calendar because 6 hours is a quarter day, or 90 degrees.

The argument for this began at a time when productivity was at its peak – goods were overproduced and sitting on shelves – workers have an overabundance of down-time, the employee of the 90 degree day is challenged to do the same job in two hours less time. In the majority of large-company cases, the employers are then encouraged to hire at least two shifts of workers, creating more jobs. The same amount of work is outputted and he/she also works about two hours less a day.

The benefits of New Time include but are not limited to:
A universal time scale without confusion
Shorter work-days
An ease into solely functioning on “the net”
Elimination of disruptions of time (daylight savings time, etc.) due to light versus dark, which is, if even noticed, completely irrelevant.
