My thoughts on I am not addicted to my smartphone or social media, I am addicted to information, to thinking while consuming: I am not addicted to my smartphone or social media, I am addicted to information, to thinking while consuming

Commentary

  • I am not addicted to my smartphone or social media, I am addicted to information, to thinking while consuming
  • Eye opening take here, “However, my brain is still craving for those highs from the early internet. It craves for the discovery, the exploration” Brain carves information, the information that it has worked through, not spoon fed slop and macro level info dump.
  • Stimulation of brain is what is making it hard to complete the satisfying loop. We are short-circuiting the brain’s reward with the short form content. We have to break it out, to allow it to get bored and then explore some ideas, connect a few dots and get you excited for the action.
