RE: How Much WORK Does it Take to Make a Difference?
You're right about us living in 'changing times'.
More technological change has occurred in our lifetimes than all of previous human history combined.
Technological change drives cultural and sociological change...so you're right again.
I've heard it said that it takes ten thousand hours of practice to become a master at any subject. I think that's an underestimate. In fact in ten thousand hours the subject you are attempting to master has likely GONE.
What can you do?
Dunno.
The Amish comes to mind.
Much of the time, it seems like tools and technology we have built to help us are advancing faster than our physiological capacity to keep up with them, especially in the last couple of decades.
Even though such older benchmarks as Moore's Law have broken down... I am still not convinced that we won't end up in a place where the technology is running us rather than us running the technology.
And I don't mean that in a "evil robot" way.
there's no doubt that technology has been advancing
faster that we can keep up with it.
and it's just beginning.
