A bird-eye view on our transformation in the past couple of decades. What we have become is worrisome!
We've transformed into millisecond attention-spanners, a zero-patient specie, individuals who are suckers for everything fast, proud supporters of the swipe-right-and-left culture. We have become on-the-go consumers, audio-book jugglers, impromptu storytellers with a social media fetish . A disastrous, albeit natural reaction to the abundance of choice out there, to the speed in which we can access this choice.
Nothing is important, because everything has an alternative, everything is dispensable.
Flings on the rise, fragile relationships, fast relationships, fast food, fast fashion, easy content, short videos, short stories, short tempers, 140-charactered paragraphs, everything in fractions, everything in intervals. We operate on fast everything, on easy everything, on short everything.. It is hell of a scare to imagine a future where this, would be the only way our brains work, where this, could be the only way we can operate and digest information.
We no longer have time to try things correctly, to delve in things courageously, to experiment things genuinely, to wait for inspiring outcomes patiently, we no longer know how, we no longer have time.
We are being trained to take in only small bits of information at a time, and its ruining our relationships, compromising our creativity, and seriously endangering our intelligence, as Humans —or as trained animals that is?
Are our brains growing or diminishing as we go?
