Stay within your own ecosystem. The ecosystem can get disturbed once new thoughts or new ‘unnecessary’ practices, tools or methodologies seep in to your daily system of doing things. Figure out the best components to your ecosystem, on your own. Plenty of shiny new youtube videos, tweets and posts will show you which tools, gadgets, items you need to have in order to win, which actually just works for them. Their quirky methodologies, ways of writing, thinking, might never fit into your ecosystem, even though it might seem great in theirs. One thing people don’t understand is that, not every shiny object is compatible with one’s ecosystem.
Instead, build your own ecosystem. Build your own quirks. Talk more about your ecosystem. Write more about your ecosystem. Have your own unique spin on things and show em off.
Feel free to try new things to test compatability, but make sure you aren’t sacrificing efficiency just to use the current trendy thing.
