All technological productivity and efficiency gains were meant to help us work less or at least more enjoyably. But then someone pushes the bar higher. It’s like running on treadmill - we can run as fast as we want but not get elsewhere.
Not saying it’s rewardless - running on treadmill is still healthier than not exercising. But we need to know why and where we run.
Some people get to set the bar. Most who set the bar for others also need to reach their bar. If we’re amongst the bar-setters, let’s not forget to identify with others’ perspectives. Most people are not lazy. Their circumstances are different from ours.
Let’s help each other out to achieve our goals win-win. And not to forget our “why”.
