Lately, I've been thinking about how many people are functioning under a level of stimulation that would have seemed overwhelming just a generation ago.
Notifications.
Multitasking.
Constant information.
Pressure to always be available.
At some point, overload can start feeling normal.
The challenge is that our minds and nervous systems don't always agree.
This week, I created a piece that explores the hidden cognitive cost of constant overstimulation, why recovery matters more than most people realize, and what sustainable human performance may actually require.
I'd love to hear your thoughts after reading it. https://www.strategictalentassociates.net/the-cognitive-cost-of-constant-overstimulation/
