Dedicated: The Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing Free Audiobook Download by Pete Davis
Media critic and writer Pete Davis, who is best known for the book "The Big Con: The True Story of How Washington Got Hoodwinked and Hijacked by Wall Street," has a new book out on the topic of commitment. The book is entitled "Dedicated: The Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing."
Author Pete Davis argues that the internet has led to a "constant state of commitment-phobia" where people are looking for ways to avoid commitment, often at the expense of real relationships. Davis offers a solution in which he explains how to commit without regretting it later. The book is written in a conversational tone and contains many examples from people's own experiences with commitment.
A podcast dedicated to the case of commitment in an age of infinite browsing. If you're trying to find a way to improve your life, the search engine is not going to help you. You'll have to scour through books, or visit a library, or visit a museum, or walk around and talk with people who have interesting lives. The internet is not just there for porn, shopping, and news; it's also crucial for finding out what makes life worth living--and staying committed
"Whether it's from your phone or not, the truth is that most people are always on the go. It's easy to get distracted in a world where everything is supposed to be on tap." So says author Pete Davis. He argues that we need to make some commitments because there is no such thing as being too busy for what we really want.
It's a day of infinite browsing. We browse until the very second in which our eyes are too heavy to keep open, we stumble down the stairs and collapse into bed without remembering the words that have been on our lips for hours. Our minds slip into dreams or memories. It's enough time for an article about clogged arteries, a recipe for pancake batter, or a story about waiting tables in high school—anything at all.
