JumpStart – Quiet

SYNOPSIS

Here’s a game: the next time you’re at the airport take a look around and count the number of people NOT on their smartphones.

Thanks to smartphones, we never have to be bored, we can never be lost, we are drowning in both information and entertainment….and we’re miserable.

Get away from tech on a regular basis.

Hand write notes for personal reflection and to other people.

Sit quietly and listen to life happening around you.

Dare to be BORED, which is the treasure chest from which nearly all great ideas have spilled forth.

Let’s talk about building parks of quiet inside the bustling city that is your life.
