They mean that they have trouble differentiating between time and the measurement of time.

The measurement of time is purely human invention.
Time itself, on the other hand, is a physical and necessary part of our reality.

My doctor put it this way “People assume that time is a strict progression from cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff.”
