The NOT-TO-DO list as a response to information overload
Are the technological conveniences actually helping?
The rapid changes in technology has enabled a quick and easy access to information. We can simply seek out a piece of information by typing on google or by scrolling through a social media news feed.
It has become extremely convenient to download an app and use its content to drive our intellectual pursuits or curiosity. All is well until we find ourselves with a myriad of apps and now, we need to find extra storage, remember to check updates and for bugs.
We add to the to-do list like an overflowing tank that never seems to stop.
Everything is out there, as long as we know what we are looking for. But do we know what we are looking for? Or have we just become blind consumers of information?
Every new piece of information brings with it the added responsibility of storing it in our brain or do something about it.
The exposure to so much information in the world of business triggers the need to filter it, dissect it, analyse it and report it, adding to the To-do of the entrepreneur.
