Depression and anxiety assume.
My belief is that the big problem with depression and anxiety, especially for people under 30 today, is they don't know the meaning of life and they don't even know where to look.
Well, the meaning of life is defined as a combination of why things happen the way they do.
That's coherence.
Why you're doing what you're doing, which is your purpose, and why your life matters, which is significance.
And they don't even know how to address those issues in the first place because you only take on those big philosophical questions in the right hemisphere of your brain.
And all the time you're spending on your devices, not to mention the hustle culture and the grind and the technical culture that we live in, is just pushing us to live exclusively on the left hemisphere of our brain.
We're living in the matrix, Mike.
They're doing that because that's what's on offer, number one.
That's how we work and how we're educated.
That's number two.
Number three is we're addicted because the technologies that we use are highly addictive.
And number four is that we've learned how to solve the life's biggest problem, which is boredom.
And we need to be bored.
Well, yeah, for sure.
That's why they do it.
That's why time and app is the number one metric when you're developing a technology.
When you want somebody to download your app, time and app is how you monetize everything.
But the truth is, this is highly, highly, highly addictive.
