“Smart Living”

Oregon Scientific, a symbol of smart living, has a simple definition of smart living. Smart living advocates the pursuit of a new perspective and attitude towards life and lifestyle enhancement.

The editor of Intelligent Life, a publication from The Economists further elaborates the idea of smart living to the question of how best to spend our own limited resources as we fend increasingly for ourselves.

Oregon Scientific is talking about what a smart living person is pursuing while Intelligent Life is justifying the need of having smart living. There are also minor differences in the way they define the term SMART. Oregon Scientific is advocating people who have multidimensional thinking and therefore smart people. Intelligent Life offers the trend-spotting skill to the readers for them to achieve a better social position in the future. These readers are at least trying to play smart in life. The magazine targets readers who feel that understanding the workings of the world is an essential first step towards nudging the whims of nature in their own favor for which I agree completely.

The pursuit of a new perspective towards life is a way to achieve smart living. The strategy of how best to spend our resources in the pursuit of a better living is a difficult problem. Smart living may just be one of the choices for a better living. At the end of the day, you have to think outside the existing life styles, believing there is another living style that is better and therefore smarter.
