I am most critical of social media and our checking habits

 

Bertrams talks about us mixing business and private life. Networks are blurred. We don’t always like that transparency. At the same time, we don’t want to appear unpopular and we hunt for connections and appreciation.

Concentration and creative problems are the rule rather than the exception. I know all about it. Sigh, I remain a content snacker! FOMO – ‘ fear of missing out’ – is not the underlying cause of this. I love knowledge and as a perfectionist I am looking for the best of the best, but where do I find my desired rough diamonds in the intimidating desert these days? I snack myself silly along the way. My infobesity remains a lifelong challenge.
