Continuously, our reliance on smart phones and PCs has increased drastically making it almost impossible for us to do without them. Now it's more like every three to six months there is an upgrade in mobiles making us stay glued like forever. For some of us, our mobiles are our lovers like me because each time I am far from my phone, I feel a part of me left with the phone too.
As little as Smart phones are that we can easily slide into our pockets, it has brought so much relevant to man's world and particularly I can go on and on stating how my device has been of benefits to me. As a student, it has made life so easy for me as I now have access to lots of PDFs to help me with my studies so even in the classroom I am still with my phone because most of our lecturers prefer to send our notes via this PDF rather than taking detections all they do is explain to us. For our assignments and research it is still via the phone accessing different websites.
I have gotten offers to help build my work life via my device that has created a path to financial stability as well thus my phone is my twin. A lot of times when I have a low percentage I do feel something important is about to pass me hence I don't want to take chances I had to purchase a power bank not because my battery is weak but electricity is unpredictable.
Although I have used my mobile for something productive, a lot of times I used it to spend time on social media laughing out load especially when I am in a bad mood. My phone has helped me forget lots of pain because the longer I stay on it, the longer I forget about life and its tantrums.
One thing I also understand is that with my device always closed, it has become addictive and coming out of it is not easy. personally I don't know how long I can do without my phone as long as I am holding it. The only time I am without a phone is when I am sleeping or my eyes are beginning to get affected by the constant light from the phone which is a must I stay away from it for like an hour or two other than that I am either busy doing something reasonable or not reasonable with the phone. Lastly, as much as we use our phones for business or pleasure, a time free from phones should be created daily at least for 30 mins or an hour cause it would help us reflect on ourselves more and addiction control too.
