nce we begin to regress back, there is an emphasis on the importance of inner observation. We<br />

no longer feel the media pressuring us on what to feel or think, our ‘gut’ feeling is back. As we<br />

stem away from the other side of the spectrum of technology advancements, the transition to<br />

day-to-day life occurs in finding happiness, compared to the everyday pressure of what needs to happen<br />

next in order to get ‘this,’ done. Although it seems to be an organic and more ‘raw’ way of thinking<br />

and living compared to others, were still learning and maintaining the priorities necessary to survive.<br />

Money and time is what we collect to save up for meaningful content and experiences. Consumers are taking<br />

this, to reward themselves with premium experiences and products. <strong>The</strong> increasing interest in the power of<br />

the mundane, which is the cause of coexisting in harmony, and behavior are becoming the driving force for<br />

innovation. Thus, the desire to reconcile a need to be alone, with a desire to find intimacy increases more<br />

rapidly. As we relish in a redefined world of ‘luxury,’ powerful connections begin to resonate in the simplest<br />

forms and create humble routines. It is this state that we as people, begin to feel like an individual again.<br />
