"Living in the Age of Smartphones: Are We Addicted or Just Adapting?

Nowadays, the phone has become a part of all our lives. From the time we wake up in the morning till we sleep at night, it remains with us. This happens with most of the people. If you are currently in school or college, you would probably use your phone more than others. Nowadays, everything has become online and most of the things we use have apps available, so it becomes a little easier to use them and we all are becoming addicted to them.

Ever since the online payment system started, I have stopped keeping money in my pocket. Sometimes it is a problem, but it is good to see that now everyone accepts online payment and it is very fast. Safe and reliable. Nowadays everything has become less dependent on the app, whether you want some food or go shopping or travel somewhere, you can do everything through their apps. Now there are many such apps through which you can do everything from one place, you take it on Google, they have added many things from bill paying to recharging at one place, so with this you do not have to install many apps. No need, you can do everything from one place.

It is very difficult for me to leave the phone, I have become addicted to it in a way, it is one thing for me not to keep money, in a way, let's assume that I am completely on the phone. Nowadays we all have become so dependent on the phone that we do not even try to use our brain. If you are stuck in any problem then just open your phone and Google, you will definitely get something and if you want a video then You just go to YouTube and you will definitely find something there. So overall we are trapped in the illusion of phone and it is very difficult to get out of it but it is not impossible too, if we want, everything is easy.

A few years ago, when I was preparing for government exams, I had given up my smartphone. For about a year, I was using a keypad phone and to be honest, I felt quite good. In those days, yes, I must have done a lot of matches. Maybe but to be honest, not having a smartphone saves you a lot of time and you do not waste your time unnecessarily. But now when I am not preparing, it seems a bit difficult to do so because my office group is on WhatsApp and if I leave the phone, I may miss important messages from my office and it might be from my boss. Don't like it.

There are many applications which I use on my phone and now it will be very difficult for me to leave the phone completely but by trying slowly and gradually, I can always do it, even if not completely, but I would say that we can do something. Can reduce time. And the best way to do this is to focus more on your hobbies or your favorite things, because you will be busy and you will not even pay attention to these things. And stay with your family and talk to them. If you will be socializing with your family, then you should still use your phone or keep reading something like a new book or do some study so that you can update your skills or Then get some higher education to achieve something big in your career.

We can do a lot of things to do, but then the point comes that we cannot give it up completely but we can do the necessary work for a few hours, like many people claim that they can just switch off their phones for an hour. Or 2 hours throughout the day. How many hours do you use your phone? I will probably walk for at least 8 hours. And to tell the truth, many applications are so addictive that you get addicted to them and you become addicted to them even without wanting to. I am very thankful that I have given up all other social media apps and now only use Hive in the bus, because I have realized that there is no use in wasting time there, if I spend the same time here, a lot can be done. . So in the end I would just like to say that it is not so easy for me to give up the phone. What are your thoughts on this?

see you in the next post, till then Keep learning and keep exploring...
