“People Live A Life Pressing Buttons”
Achieve A Better Life And Work Balance By Pressing Less Buttons
“People are so tied up in the worst parts of technology these days. They live a life pressing buttons. They don’t use their imaginations.” — Iris Apfel
We can’t live without the buttons, but we could live with less button-pressing.
Iris Apfel is such a riot and usually spot on! Now, this 101-year-old fashion icon (and self-proclaimed oldest teenager in the world) is a celebrity on Instagram — which doesn’t mean she is pressing the uploading buttons herself. Ms. Apfel takes care of the imagination, and her entourage takes care of blasting on Instagram her endlessly colorful creations to her worldwide fans.
Even though there is a lot of input and imagination behind all those buttons we like to press and swipe throughout the day, it makes us stop perceiving and using our own imagination and intuition.
This article is about giving you a different perspective on balance, noticing what can “balance you” and becoming aware of the tiny little things in daily life that are “balancing factors” in your day.
