INFORMATION OVERLOAD OR INSIGHT?




http://theerrantaesthete.com/2008/04/20/rip-father-of-chaos-theory/

The dilemma of today is: do you have to read everything published about your field of study or work, or do you take time to think and experience new views. You simply can't read all the blogs, magazines, books or tweets... And if you would have the time to read them all: by the time you're finished it has become old news. To transform information into knowledge and understanding needs reflection and debate. Today's hastiness doesn't leave us room for contemplation, peace and tranquility that might lead to an "epiphany". Let's take time to understand about order where there is chaos - although without trying to control the disorder -. Try to feel and live virtuality rather than transform it into a new "real" life. Embrace the unknown and insecurity and opt for a multidimensional future: there is not one truth in the same way there are not two human characters identical.
