Hi there! I am a freelance writer who lives and breaths content on a daily basis. I consider myself to be a living paradox. An old soul trapped in a modern world. A self-proclaimed hopeless romantic and a professional over-thinker. I can't start anything unless I have my coffee. Writing has been and always will be my way of calming the storms in my heart and mind.

You must have noticed that more than ever, this generation gets people more wired and tangled in a complicated mess of gadgets, mobile units, and smartphones. Considering the fun and entertainment you get to experience as you are living in the modern world of virtual life, you must be facing some difficult time trying to get yourself off the internet web and eventually be free of any addiction to the offspring of innovative technology.

Communication happened to tie people and makes them prone to schedule which keeps them uptight and time at which they fail to enjoy life to the fullest. Email, online messages, SMS, and video calls became a normal routine in every person who knows how to use the modern electronic they tend to overload themselves with.

At some point in this same life, you must have been trying to get off the meds and get back to the life where nothing beats you off the rest and sleep your body deserves. While the time seems to tick slowly back then, today’s technology made it beat faster as checking your phone every now and then get you off-balanced. Here are a few quick tips you can live by in order to manage your addiction to technology:

Offline Time

Spare an hour or two of going offline. Yes, your mobile phone can be addictive but you can always get yourself some self-discipline so you can work out of it and it least see how the outside of your comfort zone is a little every day.

Regular Messaging Withdrawal

Get rid of the urge to respond to an SMS message or reply to a messenger chat.

It doesn’t hurt if you fail to check who sent you some generic message or a general quote for a while and save your response for later. That will give you some time to rest.

Get Some “Me” Moments

The world has turned into a huge social circle. Every now and then, someone updates their status, and people by nature want to get to see those updates. Hold up for a while, close your eyes, and ignore those notifications and instead reenergize by resting.

Priority Management

Know what you need to finish first. Identify which among your priorities require completion over another.

See to it you put your social media inclinations at the last or else you will be too wind up to it you see yourself staying awake late.

Bottom Line

You need not become an anti-social. You are not required to deactivate your social media engagements nor is your advice to ditch off your mobile phone. You will be out of place in this technological world if you do not have at least one gadget or mobile phone around.
