Egunjini lokulinda likadokotela. Ukulinda kuba yinde. Okufanele ngikwenze? Sikhipha i-smartphone, sibheka imilayezo, singena ku-inthanethi, sidlala imidlalo - noma yini, hhayi nje ukuthi sidinwe. Umyalo wokuqala wezwe lanamuhla uthi: akumele ube nesithukuthezi. Isazi sesayensi yemvelo u-Ulrich Schnabel sithi ukuba nesithukuthezi kuhle kuwe futhi uchaza ukuthi kungani.
Lapho senza okuthile ngokumelene nesithukuthezi, yilapho siba nesithukuthezi. Lesi isiphetho sesazi sokusebenza kwengqondo saseBrithani uSandy Mann. Uthi esikhathini sethu, umzuzwana ngamunye ukhononda ngokuthi uvame ukubhoreka. Emsebenzini, izingxenye ezimbili kwezintathu zikhononda ngomuzwa wokungabi nalutho kwangaphakathi.
Kungani? Ngenxa yokuthi asisakwazi ukuma isikhathi sokuphumula esivamile, kuyo yonke iminithi yamahhala evelayo, sithatha ngokushesha i-smartphone yethu, futhi sidinga umthamo okhulayo ukuze sikitaze isimiso sethu sezinzwa. Futhi uma injabulo eqhubekayo iba umkhuba, ngokushesha iyayeka ukunikeza umphumela wayo futhi iqala ukusidina.

Ungazama ukugcwalisa ngokushesha umuzwa owesabekayo wokungabi nalutho osondelayo "ngomuthi" omusha: imizwa emisha, imidlalo, izinhlelo zokusebenza, futhi ngaleyo ndlela uqinisekise kuphela ukuthi izinga lenjabulo elikhule isikhathi esifushane lizophenduka isimiso esisha esiyisicefe.
Kwenziwani ngakho? Bored, uncoma uSandy Mann. Ungaqhubeki uzivuselela ngemithamo eyengeziwe yolwazi, kodwa vala isimiso sakho sezinzwa okwesikhashana futhi ufunde ukujabulela ukungenzi lutho, wazise isithukuthezi njengohlelo lokuqeda ubuthi engqondweni. Jabulela izikhathi lapho kungadingeki senze lutho futhi kungenzeki lutho esingavumela ulwazi oluthile luntante ludlule kithi. Cabanga ngombhedo. Vele ugqolozele usilingi. Vala amehlo.
Kodwa singalawula ngokuqaphela futhi sithuthukise ubuhlakani bethu ngosizo lwesithukuthezi. Lapho sinesithukuthezi, kulapho amaphupho engeziwe avela emakhanda ethu. Lesi siphetho safinyelelwa izazi zokusebenza kwengqondo uSandy Mann noRebeca Cadman.
Abahlanganyeli esifundweni sabo bachitha ingxenye yesine yehora bekopisha izinombolo encwadini yezingcingo. Ngemva kwalokho, kwadingeka bathole ukuthi lezi zinkomishi ezimbili zepulasitiki zingasetshenziselwani.
Egwema isithukuthezi esikhulu, la mavolontiya abonakala ehlakaniphile. Babenemibono eminingi kuneqembu elilawulayo, elalingakaze lenze noma yimuphi umsebenzi oyisiphukuphuku ngaphambili.
Singalawula ngokuqaphela futhi sithuthukise ubuhlakani bethu ngesithukuthezi. Lapho sinesithukuthezi, kulapho amaphupho engeziwe avela emakhanda ethu
Ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwesibili, iqembu elilodwa laphinde labhala izinombolo zocingo, kanti elesibili lingavunyelwe ukwenza lokhu, ababambiqhaza babekwazi ukuphenya kuphela encwadini yocingo. Umphumela: labo abaphehla ibhuku lezingcingo baqhamuke nokusetshenziswa okuningi kwezinkomishi zepulasitiki kunalabo abakopishe izinombolo. Uma umsebenzi owodwa uyisicefe, yilapho sisondela kolandelayo ngobuciko.
Isithukuthezi singadala nakakhulu, abacwaningi bobuchopho bathi. Bakholelwa ukuthi lesi simo singase sibe usizo kunkumbulo yethu. Ngesikhathi lapho sinesithukuthezi khona, kokubili okubalulekile esisanda kukufunda kanye nolwazi lwamanje lomuntu siqu lungacutshungulwa futhi ludluliselwe enkumbulweni yesikhathi eside. Ezimweni ezinjalo, sikhuluma ngokuhlanganisa inkumbulo: iqala ukusebenza lapho singenzi lutho isikhashana futhi singagxili kunoma yimuphi umsebenzi othile.
