As I read The World is Flat, I kept thinking about how technology has made many everyday tasks easier. These advances in technology have brought people more free time than ever, regardless of where they live. However, many people don’t know how to spend time wisely in the technological world. I have a couple of ideas on how we can better manage our time.
One side effect of technology is the tendency it has to distract us. Some things aren’t evil by nature, but they will waste countless hours of our time if we aren’t careful. Video games, television, iPods, and other forms of technological entertainment can be beneficial if we use them in moderation. It’s a wise idea to set a time limit on how much entertainment time to spend a day.
The amount of information that is available in the flat world is overwhelming. Much of this info is essential to know. Other knowledge is not evil, but is not necessary to know. An important skill to develop in the flat world the the ability to discern the important topics from the irrelevant ones. To keep pace in the flat world, it is necessary to master time management.
