Like I'm pretty sure with things like alcohol or nicotine somewhere in the store, there's something that's like, oh, this can be addictive.
If not, there should be.
I could be making that up.
But I feel like I've seen it somewhere.
But I feel like phones need that warning sign these days.
It is becoming a drug.
It is becoming something that is so addictive.
And I saw someone say once that imagine if people picked up, for example, their Bible.
as much as their phone.
Imagine if next time you're feeling anxious, everyone picked up that.
Imagine if every time you wanted someone to talk to, you picked up that.
Imagine if every time you're feeling lonely, bored, isolated, you pick up that.
Imagine if you want to do something first thing when you wake up, you check the Bible instead of your phone.
Imagine if you wanted to do something before bed, read that instead of your phone.
And I know not everyone is religious, but this goes for anything, literally anything, your art, your passion.
your exercise imagine if you look to these things if you are passionate about a certain sport maybe if you're passionate about music imagine if you started playing your instrument and using that to boost your mood and that to um help pass the boredom right but instead this is just way too convenient for us and i think that's the number one obstacle that i've seen
It's so convenient.
Number one, the issue comes from us being able to bring it with us everywhere, okay?
Old phones, the landline, you can't take that anywhere with you and you also can't scroll.
Even old computers, you used to not be able to take them places with you.
