Is infinite browsing limiting your ability to commit?

Do you find yourself infinitely browsing? Never able to make a commitment? To a movie? A partner? A job?

Pete Davis is a writer and civic advocate from Falls Church, Virginia. His Harvard Law School graduation speech, “A Counterculture of Commitment,” has been viewed more than 30 million times.

His new book is “Dedicated: the Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing”. He explains WHY you can’t make a choice of a movie...why you end up scrolling all night before going to bed in frustration. WHY you can’t stay in one job for more than twelve months....and WHY you keep wondering what it would be like to be partnered with someone else.

In today’s Briefing, how to address our ‘counterculture of commitment’
