Imagine being trapped in a massive room with over a billion people constantly tapping your shoulder for attention. Despite the exhaustion, you manage reasonably well-especially valuing interactions with those who truly matter. But eventually, you crave solitude. Searching the perimeter, you discover an opening revealing not mountains or valleys, but the star-filled cosmos. Do you return to the familiar tapping or leap into space? This metaphor perfectly captures our collective digital predicament. We've unconsciously adopted "Digital Maximalism"-the belief that connecting via screens is inherently good and more is always better. The balance between our social and private selves has tilted decisively outward, causing us to hear others' voices rather than our own. Though digital spaces offer endless self-expression, this expression happens entirely within the crowd, making us increasingly reactive rather than reflective. What's at stake isn't just productivity or attention-it's depth. When busyness becomes our default state, we lose the capacity for meaningful experience. The moments we treasure most are those we experience most deeply, yet our digital habits systematically undermine this capacity. Our screens have become both magical and miserable, transforming life while simultaneously diminishing it.
