There is a new book out that talks about the way we use our electronic devices. There is a theory that we are so into clicking and getting instant information and multi-tasking that our brains are being rewired. We don't stop to think deeper than 14 seconds or the time it takes to receive the needed or wanted information request. Do you think that we are rewiring our brains and the ability to think conceptually is being lost? Share your thoughts. Now do take longer than 14 seconds.

Maybe it's true, I use many electronic devices to do all the things faster, checking emails, reading information and more, but yes, sometimes I use them but I don't take more than 14 seconds reading anything, just I drop it, we are changing our brains, and we don't let time to take a stop and analyze the information we are receiving...

....Hi there elrvld, Welcome to the ranch, it's a great place to meet new friends, enjoy. What you have stated is the exact point that the author of the book was making when he was interviewed. The corrolation was made to some of the decisions that are being made in business and in government which are decided so quickly without a complete analysis of the broader long, term picture and sometimes are wrong. Something to think about. Thanks so much for stopping by. Take care.
