In the modern world there is everything to satisfy even the most sophisticated needs, but people have not become happier. Technologies are developing, the pace of life is accelerating, and we often just do not have time to adapt. And, as a result, we feel miserable. Psychologists have identified the main reasons why this happens.

Too wide range
Many benefits and freedom of choice played a cruel joke. It would seem that in modern stores you can find anything, buy and be happy. But the problem is that too abundant choices are tiresome, time-consuming, and questionable in making decisions. As a result - stress, depression and other disorders.
Unfortunately, often only an illusion of choice is seen. Most of the products you choose can be made in one factory. Do not constantly experiment. If you bought one washing powder and you liked it, then buy it. If in doubt about your choice, discuss with friends or family.
Large amount of information
The World Wide Web has provided access to virtually any information. However, most of it is simply useless and unreliable. A separate problem is gadgets and social networks. Useless, time-consuming content pours through a wide stream through large and small screens in the hope of a like mark.
Of course, it is difficult to imagine modern life without the Internet, but you can reduce the impact of networks and gadgets. First, minimize mailing lists and do not visit similar sites. The information is most likely duplicated, and you just read the same thing, but in other words, spending many times more time. Regulate the use of gadgets for entertainment purposes. Turn off sound notifications for the duration of important work - this will reduce the likelihood that you will be distracted.
High speeds
The pace of life is increasing annually and requires us to constantly be in good shape, otherwise we won’t have time, someone faster will overtake us. This is fraught with stress, nervous breakdowns and even serious illnesses. Unfortunately, no one thinks about these consequences. Multitasking, saving time and even meeting other people only on business is the norm in the modern world.
To cope with this problem, you need to allocate at least 15-20 minutes for meditation and relaxation in your busy schedule. Give up multitasking. This does not improve the quality of work, but rather. The most effective at the present time is phased planning.
The same problem can be attributed to the desire to be successful. In this strange race, we lose ourselves, if only to grab a place under the sun, achieve a goal, realize a dream at all costs. As a result, when the goal is not achieved, we get emotional burnout, apathy and depressive states. Set real goals - this will keep you in good shape and will serve as an excellent motivation.
