Is technology distracting?

How is your day today? Mine is extremly borisng, but I also think im getting sick because I do not feel very well. Besides that lets start talking about this topic, technology is all around us, in our back pockets, around the corner or anywhere you go, from a hand held device to a desktop.

I, like many other people, get distracted by technology. It is all around me when I go to school, every student carrys around there own laptop and phone. I find technology distracting because it is all around us, the moment I get on a device i find it hard to get myself off of it, I just keep digging deeper into the internet to find so many magnificent information I have a hard time prying my attention off of it. Do you feel this way? where you are just so attached to what you are looking at or watching that you can not get yourself away from it. I find I most do this when I am watching a youtube video and can not get enough of them. It is a bad thing to do because if you keep getting distracted by technology we will not be able to see what is happening around us. We will continuously keep our heads bowed down to our phones looking at whatever we look at. Have you ever been soo attached to your smart phones or laptops that you missed very important or your focus was more on the technology than doing your homework, I do this all the time and get distracted form doing my homework. Thats all i have to say for today about technology, I do admit that I get distracted by it a little too much but I can tell myself to stop.

Heres a question for you, if you are like me and get distracted by technology, can you figure out a few ways to stop this from happening and put away your phone for a few hours? If so what would you do with your free time you make?

Thanks for your time and have a great week!
