And somehow, we’re expected to keep up with all of it without losing our minds. In this special episode of NewVision OldWays, I’m diving into Flock cameras, AI, biometrics, digital fraud, surveillance, deepfakes and something I call “Reality Fatigue”—that growing exhaustion that comes from constantly wondering what’s real, what’s safe, what’s watching us and what we should actually do about it. But I’m not interested in simply scaring the hell out of everybody. There’s another side to this conversation, and it connects directly to my recent series on mindfulness and meditation. Because maybe one of our greatest defenses against a world designed to create fear, urgency and constant reaction isn't another piece of technology. Maybe it's learning how to control the space between what happens…and how we respond. And that's where my Ten-Second Firewall comes in. It's incredibly simple. But in the world we're entering, it might also be incredibly powerful - another tool in our mental stability tool kit.
