Amazing, but too often overlooked benefits of digitization

We live in a time when everything is changing. In the year 2008 we adopted smartphones, today four billion people use them every day, maybe every hour. Smartphones have sped up our lives, enabled us to get all the information in the blink of an eye. Maybe we also feel that nothing works anymore without a smartphone. Actually, it is true.

Along with smartphones came the digitization of various processes, from shopping over the Internet or, even easier, through the smartphone, which has become an everyday and secure means of payment, to the integration of all processes in the cloud. Companies, cities, and our lives are being digitalized.

We could write a lot about it, we would also find the weaknesses of digitalization, among them is certainly too much screen time. Some of us fear the surveillance of our lives by technology companies. In addition, that is true, and we should also look at the good sides of digitalization, which makes our lives easier, speeds up the execution of tasks and erases distances between places - it makes the world much smaller than it was in the past.

Digitization helps us in our everyday life when we buy tickets to the cinema, public transport, make dinner reservations at our favorite restaurant, turn on the air conditioning in our office or home or apartment, check our children's grades and possible absences from school. In our workplace, it simplifies the execution of our daily tasks, speeds up processes, digital signing, simplifies monitoring of the company's fleet in real time, enables quick access to data and reporting, timely notifications and much more.

That is right, digitization makes our lives easier, and it gives us time to dedicate to ourselves. In fact, it essentially distances us from human contact, but at the same time, it allows us to have more time for them. It is only important that we use the technology of the modern age in the right way, to our advantage.

This also applies to electric cars, which still cause discomfort to many people. Long charging times, high prices... and nothing else!

You might not know it, but electric cars are like your phones. You can be connected to them at all times, using apps you can turn on the air conditioning and cool the interior, check the battery status, enter the destination of your trip in the navigation and plan charging stops at electric charging stations, and in this one you completely get rid of those worries from the beginning of the paragraph.

Once you get used to living with them, you will find that they actually improve your quality of life, bring savings with every extra kilometer and allow you to be connected to them all the time you want.

If you prepare for the digital and electric age in the right way, that is to set up a charging station in your home and office, life with an electric car becomes easier than with an ordinary one, on gasoline or diesel.

Plug the phone into the charger every night, you can do the same, although it is not necessary because of the 300 or 400 kilometers you can drive with a full battery, with a modern electric car.
