The Book "Resonanz" by Hartmut Rosa.
In the book, Rosa explains why a fulfilling life doesn't depend on a faster pace or more resources, but rather on genuine, meaningful connections with people, work, and the world. In an era geared toward acceleration and optimization, this helps me keep sight of what digitalization and progress are actually meant to achieve.
