Best Wishes for 2020
What you should wish yourself for 2020
We’re entering 20’s, a crazy decade, where everything will be possible. While the world is getting more interesting with every single day — just think, climate, politics, technology — let’s pause for a minute and think what we should wish for this coming year and the whole decade?
More focus
In our fast-paces world we are constantly on our smartphone, always online, always ready to respond. This, as we tell ourselves, boost our short-term effectiveness but has a heavy toll on our concentration and thus our long-term results.
Let’s wish ourselves that we spend in 2020 less time with ever smarter smartphones, less time with social media, less time looking at another YouTube video, less time on Netflix and less time online in total.
Let’s wish for more human eye-to-eye interactions, doing things together, offline experiences of the outside world.
More openness
Since 2016 US elections we became more aware of how social media can be used to influence social opinions and divide. The last three years showed that we became even more divide, entangled in our social media bubble, closed to different opinions.
