Are We Too Dependent on Gadgets?
Good morning everyone present. I feel immensely privileged to have got the opportunity to express my views on ‘Are we too dependent on gadgets?'
Robin S. Sharma , the famous author and motivational speaker says, “Cell phones, mobile e-mail, and all the other cool and slick gadgets can cause massive losses in our creative output and overall productivity.” Modern life-style and man's increasing dependence on technology have literally affected his mental and physical faculties and capabilities adversely. Not only intelligence, the effect of technology and gadgets is visible on all aspects of his life. Machines, gadgets, vehicles, smart-phones, tabs, laptops, ac, blower, geyser, and whatnot, man cannot live for a second without technology.
As a consequence, he has become physically, mentally, socially, spiritually, emotionally weak!
The present signs of his decadence do not augur well! If he fails to check his dependence on technology and gadgets, he may become utterly incapable of surviving any longer on this planet. The ever increasing indexes of patients in the hospitals of the world are a red-signal for man. He must learn to use technology wisely and appropriately. After all excess of everything is always bad! He must use these gadgets as he uses other things for example, stove, shoes, water-tap, house, car, pen, bed, etc. He uses them only when they are required. However, his overuse of some of the gadgets such as smart phone, computer, TV, etc. are killing his time. They don’t let him use his other faculties. He must wean himself off these gadgets before it is too late!
He must use gadgets wisely. He must not be over dependent on them. Though they have become an integral part of man’s existence, yet he must use his faculties optimally. He must give due exercise to his body, mind and soul. Otherwise the dependence on gadgets will render him weak physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
