Gadgets Make People Lazy and Dependent
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.
