Remind me using Reminders!!!
Started a poll to check what people think about reminders, although very few responded, still covering same with some of my thoughts on this.
We all are living life full of hustle-bustle, we find ourselves completely occupied with one thing or other. Let it be personal or professional.
Since we all love to follow work life balance, we indulge ourselves in physical activities. Well, it is great.
But…
- do you also set alarms, reminders in mobile phones?
- purchased some smart watches to remind you to log how much water you drink, when to walk 1000 steps, when to move our hands, when to call family (to ensure so called balanced life)?
If answer to above questions is “YES” then congratulations, you are enslaved by these cute tiny machines (watches/mobiles).
I know, you might think writer must be using laptop/tablet/mobile for this story and she is questioning us? Its alright, you guys can laugh for a while!
Now let us move to reality. It is 2022, obviously directly or indirectly, we all are enslaved by machines and thanks to innovation happening around Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Meta and what not!
The thought which puts me in dilemma is that for the sake of making things easy we are losing our own identity, being dependent on machines for each and every chore of our day to day life. Guys come on do we really need all this, my intention is not to question any smart watch or smart mobile brands or technology. My thought is why do we need all of this?
Want and need, both are totally different things. We may want these expensive gadgets on our wrists but do we really need them?
Please prioritize yourself before anything else as these basic reminders we set are necessities, drinking water, moving, walking. Don’t you guys feel handicapped? Please give a thought, its always in our hands to use anything wisely. I know its not causing any harm but try to be more human rather than acting and responding on commands like machines do.
Keeping it short and concluding: Always put focus on health than work because if you exist then only your work does. Nothing can be more important than our health.
Stay safe, happy and healthy.
Let’s connect on LinkedIn for spreading love and awareness.
Please feel free to correct and discuss but these are my personal opinions which would not necessarily suit everyone. Its okay still cheers!!!
