We are drowning in a sea of information. We are inundated with news, views, opinions, facts and information every time we log in to the internet or turn on the TV. This constant barrage of information thrown at us nonstop in a 24/7 cycle makes us weary and lost in this never-ending repetitive world. Therefore, it is very important for professionals, students, and anyone who wants to focus and concentrate to learn the art of separating the rice from the chaff and to lead productive lives that are meaningful and deep.
For instance, knowing what is happening all over the world instantaneously and uninterruptedly would produce a fatigue in our minds and lead to exhaustion that can drain productivity and lead to loss of focus. One does not need to know all the news and happenings on Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, and on TV all the time. Unless one learns the habit of separating what one wants from what is available, most likely one would end up with what has been called information overload that denotes the extraordinary amount of information that we are being bombarded with constantly.
