SMARTPHONES





We all know that we are addicted to smartphones and also using the smartphones in a wrong way. But we never tried to get rid of it. Let’s discuss some of the most common aspects or areas that we are being addicted to and how we can actually utilize it in a better way.


Games:

Many of us are addicted to Games like PUBG, FREE FIRE and many other games. Playing games for a while is ok. But being addicted to those games are eating your time without you knowing it. When it comes to PUBG, we are playing till now by using VPN’s even the game is banned in India. By this you can realize how much you are addicted to it. Playing games for hours may give you the satisfaction, but it will not create ladder for your career and future unless gaming is your profession. Set a limit to your gameplay. I also used to play many games, but I stopped playing games 4 years ago. 


Online Betting and Gambling:

Most of us are being trapped into the online betting and gambling scams. Don’t ever fall into those traps. We are placing our parent’s money or our own hard-earned money on betting which we can only depend on luck in the chance of winning. If we win, it’s ok. But if lost we will lose all money, right? The main problem is if we lose in the betting, we will become emotion and try to place bid again. Usually when it comes to money, we think emotionally rather than thinking logically. So, be aware of the fraudulent betting apps.


YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels:

Almost all of us are addicted to YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. Mainly Instagram reels. It all started with the TikTok. When the TikTok come into existence all are started to use the TikTok and gradually addicted to it by continuously scrolling and scrolling for hours. After TikTok banned in India, Instagram applied the same concept of TikTok in the form of Instagram Shorts. The main problem is there is more useless content than Informative content. Now-a-days, fortunately many creators are creating much informative content. But the cringe and useless content is also coming up equally. 


Pornography:

I know it will be bit uncomfortable to discuss about this topic, but it’s important to realize the fact about it. So many people are being addicted to pornography. Realize that the content shown in it is not true. If you consume those type of content, believe me it will bring very negative impact on your mind. In the present world 12-year-old is accessible to this type of content. Just imagine if a 12-year-old kid consume this type of content and believe that what he/she consume is true, then he/she will be misled in their life. It will bring much negative impact to their minds. You are the reflection of what you consume. 


How can we utilize the smartphones in a better way?


Let’s discuss some of the ways to get rid of smartphone addiction and how we can utilize it in a better way.


Coming to playing games, one can set a particular time for gaming and not to cross the timeline set for it. By doing it consistently one can get rid of the gaming addiction. But the best suggestion from my side is to stop playing the useless. One can prefer games like online chess, puzzle games for the mental exercise.


Coming to the Instagram reels, YouTube shorts. You can actually control the type of content you want to watch. In case of mine, I divide my content consumption in three categories. 

  • Informative Content
  • Infotainment (Information + Entertainment)
  • Entertainment


I give more preference to informative content and Infotainment content. So, I consume more content from those two categories and less content from Entertainment alone.


So, you can start with the Infotainment content and then go to the Informative content and give less preference to entertainment if you want to consume good content.


Coming to the Online Betting and gambling, instead of that one can spend time on leaning finance concepts, Block chain technology and investment concepts in block chain technology like bitcoin, Ethereum, and even learning about NFT’s and Buying NFT’s, investment topics like stock market, Mutual Funds, and many more. Being a 21-year-old, I’m investing in Mutual Funds and holding an NFT. 


Coming to pornography, as I said earlier, it will bring much negative impact to our minds. Stop consuming those content. Remember that “You are the reflection of what you consume”. 


You can earn money through Smartphones. You can learn and do Mobile photography, Digital Illustration (Digital Art), Create and upload content on YouTube like Vlogs, music, cooking, teaching, personal finance, gaming etc. 


As I said earlier “Playing games for hours may give you the satisfaction, but it will not create ladder for your career and future unless gaming is your profession.”


You can create gaming channel and do gaming videos like game play, doing live game playing, through which you can earn money from YouTube if you add some fun and creativity to it.


Those who are preparing for jobs can prepare for their interviews and aptitude through their Smartphone itself. 


There are many other ways too to utilize our Smartphone for our career growth and for knowledge gain.


Unfortunately, many of us are stuck at scrolling the reels for hours and hours, watching useless content. Our mind must be controlled by us, but our mind is being controlled by the Smartphone. It’s ok to being entertained for some time but don’t addict to the entertainment alone. At least realize now and wake up from the loop and utilize your Smartphones for your knowledge and career growth.

MISTAKES

According to my opinion, these are the three common categories and aspects in life where we make mistakes In Academics: Many of us did many mistakes in our academics and even failed in exams too. We see many students are committing suicides when they are failing in their exams, mainly in their 10th standard that too in our India. We, society has influenced the students or children that they should get pass in their 10th standard or else they will fail in life. Not only about the 10th standard there are many parents who inculcate in their children mind that they should get high score or top rank in academics that too in a frightened manner, telling their children that they will be given punishment from their parents. Both parents and teachers need to be awake from the misconceptions. Parents need to understand that Marks alone neither decide the success nor the future of the children. It’s fine if your children get less marks. It’s fine if your children are not able to perform well in a...

COMPARISON

  Comparison Comparison can kill your confidence and goals. On the other side it can make you achieve your goals.  Yes, there is both positive and negative side for comparison. The positive side comes from gratitude and the negative side comes from comparison alone.  Let’s discuss on both positive side and negative side of comparison. Comparison (Negative Side): Most of us become depressed or lose hope mainly due to comparison. We compare ourselves with others who are successful. We compare our current financial status with someone else’s financial status. Not only us, even our parents compare us to our siblings, cousins and neighbor’s children and make us feel we are worth nothing. It makes us feel like we are useless thus lose hope towards our goals, dreams and even in life.  Gratitude (Positive Side): We make mistake by comparing our present status/situation which includes money, job, car/bike, home, and many more with someone else who is having all those things. ...
