There is no denying the fact that whatever achievements human
being has got, they owe it wholly or partially to their socializing nature. We
think of an idea and bring about some change in the world through that idea but
if we would have been unable to express this idea and communicate the
nitty-gritties of that idea to our co-workers or future generations, we could
never have been the same force to reckon with. But useful as much this tendency
of communication may be, it must have some limitations. Why communicate
something that is not important for either the party that is conveying the
message or for the party that is getting the information. Why the great urge to
listen to each and very peace of information and to act like a broadcaster for
the same. In my view, this tendency of over-communication acts as a barrier for
one’s productivity and efficiency if not his peace of mind. While I have
observed this tendency more in female fraternity nevertheless my so called
corporate experience has proved me wrong. My office sometimes seems to me as a
set of some reality show like Roadies, a slight exaggeration on my part, where
everyone seems to be propagandising and conniving against each other. While some
are more dramatic and idiotic in their approach, others join them too whenever
there is a chance albeit with a lesser zeal. My preparation certainly keeps me
aloof from them and that’s why I have become an enigma, a secretive figure for
them. Frankly speaking even I sometimes feel compelled to engage in these
conversations however unproductive and time-consuming they might be. It seems
that this is in the very nature of human being to be able to talk to others
whether it is for any purpose or otherwise. I can’t help but think if the world
would have been a better place if this tendency of over-socialisation in human
beings wasn’t there.
