Your concept of time changes.

When you live anywhere besides the city, your to-do list can take an entire day to complete. But in New York? It can take, like, an hour or two tops. For this reason, it can feel like people are always on the go and accomplish a million things in one day. Don't let that intimidate you. New York is literally a pissing contest of who is busier. That doesn't mean you should feel obligated to join in! If you get a bunch of stuff done, take what free time you have to decompress.
