Productivity from a lazy perspective
In a completely distracting world, productivity has emerged as a shiny target everyone is striving for. Let's admit that we are addicted to our screens, whatever our patterns of usage are, we need to take our dose every now and then. How corporations expect productivity from their workers when they require them to check their emails every now and then and reply at once? If we really need productivity and innovation to thrive we need to embrace the need to disconnect from our hyper connected world. My father told me how in the good old days, when communicating with snail mail abroad, a minimum of two weeks between sending and replying on his mail was the norm and waiting patiently was the habit. I wish I can disconnect and read a book quietly as I did during my childhood. We have the choice.
