Life today move faster than ever before. Multitasking-handling several tasks at the same time - has showed the increased pace of modern life. Thanks to technology, the speed of life has quickly increased over the past century. Time-saving inventions like e-mail and ATMs have made daily tasks more efficient. People today expect speed. A recent Cable News Network(CNN)survey shows that most American can’t handle long waits. Sixty percent say they are unwilling to wait longer than 15 minutes for food or service.

Eating in a hurry has become a habit for many people. Supermarket shelves carry more easy-to-prepare processed foods than fruits and vegetables. Fast-food restaurants offer express lines. A popular restaurant in Japan even charges customers by the time spent at the table, not by what they eat!

Businesses are increasingly responding to customers’ need for speed. Many gas stations and convenience stores in Asia offer prepaid cards. In addition, convenient “smart cards”, like Taipei’s EasyCard, are available in a number of Asian cities. These time-saving cards can be used to pay for all kinds of goods and services, including public transportation.

Unfortunately, studies show that life’s fast pace produces stress and leads to health problems. Another concern is lack of rest and free time. An online survey at shows that 56 percent of people in China constantly feel short of time.

The negative effects of a high-speed life are not being ignored. A growing number of best-selling authors and speakers encourage people to take time to smell the roses. They offer healthy and practical advice on slowing down.

Whether you like speed or prefer a slower pace, it’s easy to be amazed at how fast life moves. And with tomorrow’s technology, it will likely get even faster.
