We all know this great idiom “No pain no gain”, but most time ignore it.

We all need changes but don’t do anything to change. Nowadays, we become so lazy we don’t even know who lives in our neighborhood. We became so divided.

Sometimes we try to find a cure for an unknown disease. Have you asked yourself what’s preventing you from achieving your dreams?. As human beings, we love to cover things up. Sometimes we really know the answers to questions but don’t want to answer. Sometimes questions are more important than answers.

Here is one thing that’s stopping you from achieving your dreams. You might think something else, but it’s your phone. Phones are made to facilitate our daily life, but they seem to make us lazier somehow.

How many times have you checked your phone today?. Probably more than 100 times. According to new research by Global Tech Care Company, “Americans check their phones 96 times, — that’s once every 10 minutes”.

Here is one thing we’ve all tried but failed. We try to limit our usage but never do it.

Deloitte’s study show 63% of respondents reported trying to limit smartphone usage; however, only half of those succeeded in cutting back. It’s unfortunate to see how phones became a part of our life.

Isn’t that crazy?. Phones are meant to make life easier but nowadays it’s complicated to say so. A lot of people have big dreams but are afraid to do and make changes. They become so addicted to their phones. They can’t even make their beds.

There is something you need to know, everything has a positive side and a negative side. Most of the time, we put technology on the positive side, but it has some negativities that needs to be addressed. I’m not saying we should get rid of it, but we should use based on our needs.

Vox has said recently, “The time we spend attracted to our digital devices is growing”. This is true, and we should consider if this increasing our knowledge now destruction.

A lot of times, we want to do something, but rather to watch videos on Facebook. Once you become addicted to social media, you become part of it. You feel like you can’t even live without it.

But little do you know, it’s destroying you unknowingly. Here are tips and tricks to overcome this little enemy.

  1. Know why you are using it
  2. Put away your phone (anytime you are doing something important)
  3. When putting away your phone, don’t put it near a place where you can reach (It’s more likely that you would touch your phone)

We shouldn’t take this for granted because it’s sometimes that God has blessed us. We should use it accordingly and benefit from it.
