Some people want a life of meaning.
Some want a life of beauty.
Some want a life of peace.
The age has proposed an alternative arrangement:
responsiveness.
Reply quickly.
Decide quickly.
Recover quickly.
Optimize the transition time between one demand and the next.
Soon enough, a person becomes less a self than a surface area for incoming requests.
They will call this maturity.
They will call this professionalism.
They will call this being “on top of things.”
And perhaps it is.
Perhaps mastery now means becoming frictionless enough to move through systems without leaving behind the inconvenience of a soul.
