Excerpt from the book To Sell is Human by Daniel Pink
Nowadays, everyone-whether we're the head of an organization or its freshest hire-faces a torrent of information. The McKinsey Global Institute estimates that the typical American hears or reads more than one hundred thousands words every day. If we leave our desk for a few minutes to grab a cup of coffee, greeting us upon our return will be new e-mails, texts, and tweets - not to mention all the blog posts we haven't read, videos we haven't watched, and, if we're over forty, phone calls we haven't returned.
~~
I cannot agree more on the above.
