Some of the most important things have been done by people during when there’s a lot happening, socially, politically, or technologically. Hemingway wrote his classics from his experiences in conflict zones. Mark Twain lived when slavery existed in United States. George Orwell wrote "1984" and "Animal Farm" as the spectre of Soviet Union and Cold war grew.

In Business, the rise of Microsoft (80s), Google (late 80s), Apple (the second coming) all coincided with rapid changes in consumer needs during an age of personal computing, internet and personal technology.

Mahatma Gandhi saw racism first-hand while he lived in South Africa.

As the Chinese curse goes,

May you live in interesting times.
