Internet Addiction and Authority

A quote from a special report by David B. Bohl that states: “The internet is so addictive because it gives us instant gratification and also instant validation.  We search hungrily for people in the world who will confirm our hunches, validate our emotions, and concur with our likes and dislikes.  If you don’t care for what one individual has to say, you keep Googling until you find someone who does share your point of view.  Is it any wonder that the X and Y generations display such irreverent humor and disregard for authority?  It’s because they’ve discovered that, to some extent, “authority” has become a self-affixed label.”

Here’s a quote from my Special Report Slow Down FAST: A Revolutionary Guide for Being Productive, Efficient, and Effective:

“The internet is so addictive because it gives us instant gratification, and also instant validation.

Is it any wonder that the X and Y generations display such irreverent humor and disregard for authority? It’s because they’ve discovered that, to a great extent, “authority” has become a self-affixed label.”
