THE ILLUSION OF TIME

Time flies but a watched pot never boils. Time is relative. We are often in a hurry and it is true, that we don’t have much time to get e.g. the climate change under control. But a sense of urgency doesn’t always mean that there is a real need to rush. Not having enough time is a common belief in modern life. It is usually an illusion. Home is a place where we calm down.

How can we make our homes havens of no rush?

Water is an essential part of our lives, more so than we think. Most of the human body is water. It has been estimated, that there will be shortage of fresh water in the future. This has created new business opportunities. Watching water has a calming effect.

How is water visible and present in our homes?

EMPATHY & EMOTIONAL DATA

 
Our emotions influence our decisions but we are good at fooling and convincing ourselves that we base them on rational thinking. Emotional intelligence and empathy are needed more and more now that much of our communication is digital. Without eye contact there is a big chance for misunderstandings. The importance of sound for communication has gained attention recently. Connection is vital for our welLbeing.

IN THE BUBBLE

 
We look at the world from our own subjective perspectives and tend to consider our views as the objective truth. It is surprisingly difficult to understand people with totally different values and mindsets. Diversity is wealth, however. We live in a polarized world but fortunately also open-minded discussions have been conducted all over the world.
