25 PLACES THAT SHAPE YOUR LIFE
Some people are always out, going to concerts, restaurant openings, you name it. They never fall into a predictable leisure routine! Or so it seems. However, according to a new study, everyone has a set of places they return to regularly. Twenty-five of them, to be precise. 1. _____ With the use of GPS their whereabouts were mapped throughout the day. The study showed that although the students often visited new spots, they spent most of their time in roughly 25 places that they returned to repeatedly. They weren’t always frequent visitors, but they were regular enough.
This behaviour seemed linked to university life when students are relatively campus-bound. 2. _____ Again, to their surprise, it turned out that visiting 25 places on a regular basis seemed to be an unwritten rule for all of them. People didn’t show up in more locations when they had more free time to explore, or fewer when they had less. What the number of places they went to correlated with was the number of friends they had. More friends translated into slightly more places visited.
These results by no means suggest that we don’t incorporate new places into our routines. We do! All the time! 3. _____ This may suggest that humans simply don’t have the mental capacity for much more than 25 places. This finding could have implications for how cities are designed or how governments manage epidemics. 4. _____ After all, if you can only be a regular in 25 places, it’s worth selecting them carefully. Companies are constantly investing in offices encouraging creativity and collaboration and people have to start to think about the spaces they visit outside of work in the same way, seeking out layouts and amenities that help them feel their best.
