Present Guy vs. Future Guy

Although Seinfeld jokes about the struggle between Night Guy and Morning Guy, there are a lot of truth in this comedy sketch.

I am subscribed to Cassidy Williams’s newsletter which always includes many cool ideas, tips and links. One of the article links she shared in issue #244 made me think about the eternal struggle between Night Guy vs Day Guy (Or in the context of this post – Present Guy vs Future Guy): The Present Bias: Why You Keep Sabotaging Your Future—And How to Stop .

The article gives some cool tips in terms how Future Guy can get the upper hand. Hopefully it helps, because Future Girl, normally gets knocked out by Present Girl in my life.

I am a failed industrial designer, who ended up completing an undergraduate degree in economics, political science and philosophy. I did my graduate studies in philosophy. I am currently working in the field of international education. I also use technology in strange & interesting ways. I have a real interest in terms of how technology, gender, sexuality, education and studying abroad intersect. For me technology should be an enabling tool (maybe this is also why I sometimes use / approach tech in non-traditional manners). Also, I tweet too much! I believe the world is complex and to better understand it we need to approach the world in an intersectional manner.
