Immediacy.
That's exactly what's wrong in today's world. With the advancement of technology, we can get the object you wish for in a day, even in hours, a date with just a swipe, get thousands of people's attention with a post and what not?
We want everything to be happened now and if we don't see things working out in that moment, we get depressed, agitated and become restless.
With the advent of social media, reaching out people who are thousands of kilometers away has become possible. Now, if people don't get likes for our posts as expected in minutes, we become discontended. And our likes target keeps on increasing as the posts increase. Everybody wants to become famous, immediately.
We have thousands of friends with us, yet we never felt so lonely.
We've thousands of choices before us, yet we were never confused like this ever before.
We all are empowered more than ever before, yet we feel more worthless.
We have innumerable opportunities before us, yet we feel lost.
Success is a fruit. Most often, we forget that it needs to come from a tree called "Dedication". For that you need to sow the seeds of "Hard work". You've to grow your own tree to get the fruits of success.
No matter how much the technology advances, you cannot buy peace, you cannot get love with a swipe, google cannot answer the questions your soul is craving for.
Think again. Immediacy is not the solution.
