RE: Thoughts over coffee: Part ten

in Galenkp's Stuff13 days ago

I'm not like some modern teen, but I do find I need to remind myself occasionally to just put my phone down. Usually I am checking emails and stuff like that, but since I already have trouble focusing in the first place due to my ADHD, it's better just to set it out of sight and out of mind. It's harder than I would like to let on though. My wife would probably argue that I spend more of our "down time" checking my phone for work versus spending my work time checking my phone for fun.

Sort:  

It's a pretty bad habit and one that is difficult to break. People put it down to being productive but entire generations of humans were productive without having to look at their phones all the time right?

For sure! I am glad I grew up when I did and I can easily have one foot in the digital world and one foot out of it. Kids these days almost don't get that luxury.
