In this fast-paced world, everything has to be fast. Everything has to be efficient. Everything has to be as easy as possible. Because when it is not, you lose to competition.
Competition is a double-edged sword. On the brighter side, competition hastens growth. This is a proven thing. Because of the race to become dominant, players are forced to excel or else end up in the trash bin. In effect, this becomes beneficial to consumers because of the rising quality of products and lowering of prices.
On the darker side, I've already said it. Competition is a costly business. Every move should be well though of. Every move is important. One wrong move, and your adversaries have already left you far behind. And this is not good producers.
In the end, it's a question of whose benefit should be prioritized: the consumers and the society that they make up or the producers? Should we go for competition or for monopoly? Obviously, we'll have to go for competition as it benefits more people.
Anyway, back to my original statement. In the current business, you have to be fast. And speed does not come from the big things alone. Work efficiency starts from little things. What little things, you ask? Take, for example, wrapping up some office supplies. Surely, you would save more time had you used one of these self-adhesive lamination sheets and self-adhesive lamination rolls than manually sticking tape unto the surface of a plastic cover, right?
Now that's saving time. And that is, in a way, keeping to the competition.
