  • 40 years ago – communication was done via snail mail. Business was conducted at a slower pace.
  • Today – communication is instant. The pace of business has increased in tandem.
  • 40 years ago – hardly anyone had mental health issues.
  • Today – everyone is struggling.

Our mental health would improve immediately.
