Often times in school kids are using their phones, or n their iPads doing god only knows what. We all seem to find ourselves getting distracted from time to time, checking m stages, scrolling through Facebook, reading the latest blog post on tumblr, or looking up DIY on Pinterest. With all these different apps and websites, also comes an abundance of technology. On average, almost 10 hours out of 24 are spent using some kind of technology.. Tv, radio, phone, computer ect. 1/2 18-24 year olds check their phone within 5 minutes of waking up. Maybe you don't see this as a problem, but I'll tell you why it is. At school and even sometimes at work, people will say "well I can multitask!" ... But that isn't the case. Many scientists are starting to truly believe that the brain is not capable of multitasking, that it just switches from one thing to another very quickly. So what do we do? Put the phone down. Turn the tv off. Go outside, go for a walk. Go to lunch with a friend. Spend less time looking at a screen, and more time actually looking at someone.
