How does trends affect the way of life?
Every day, new happenings that influence our daily lives lead to more (or less) creative and innovative ideas related to people and businesses and one thing is clear: trends have the power to let us focus on the perception of “here and now”.
By keeping up with trends, you'll constantly be learning; new tools, new events to participate in, new ways to be efficient. This will give you a wider variety of things to work with- therefore, you will be able to experiment with more things and use them to generate new ideas.
Trends also influence our culture broadly, beyond just an individual industry. You can think about trends as helping to solve problems. They gain power over time because they aren't about a specific moment in time, but the progression of time. On the other hand, a fad comes and goes more quickly.
First, a definition: A trend is a prevailing tendency that is gradually gaining momentum and might have long-term implications. It's different from a fad, which is a short-term burst of interest or way of being. The fact that more people are working from home is a trend.
Trends exist through a constant cycle of innovation and emulation. It's the way people embrace one another and interact with each other. People are obsessed with trends because joining a trend means you're part of a group; you are in, you belong. “Some changes are short-lived and they are normally called fads.

A trend, on the other hand, gets stronger over time and does stick around. Trends have identifiable and explainable rises that are driven by audience needs. They help solve a problem for people.
Why is it important to differentiate between trends and fads? Both trends and fads are useful for brands but mistaking a fad for a trend could result in a loss of credibility and making poor investment decisions on the part of an organization.
By enhancing our ability to spot trends, we can protect ourselves from propagating a design beyond its best years. We can also forecast ahead. We draw upon our informed position to evaluate where the next trend is likely to emerge.
A trend is the overall direction of a market or an asset's price. In technical analysis, trends are identified by trendlines or price action that highlight when the price is making higher swing highs and higher swing lows for an uptrend, or lower swing lows and lower swing highs for a downtrend.
What are some examples of trends and fads? As of 2019, some recent trends include food as a hobby or foodie-ism, ethical living, responsible consumerism, authenticity on social media, blurring of gender roles, and wearable technology.
What a trend is?
A trend is what's hip or popular at a certain point in time. While a trend usually refers to a certain style in fashion or entertainment, there could be a trend toward warmer temperatures (if people are following trends associated with global warming).
Trends are spread by nothing more than people copying and adapting the latest 'thing'. By breaking them down into the following 5 stages from innovation to slow demise, we can start to understand how trends are born and developed.
