This cellphone is one of the most useful tools ever. I can check my email, send texts, make calls, monitor security, pay bills, do my banking, buy a car, handle insurance, and research ideas—all from my phone. It's amazing! But there's a downside. We are always thinking and creating. Unlike animals, we can have complex thoughts and build things. A whale or a dog can't build houses or make tools, but we can. This ability sometimes overwhelms us with too much information and distractions. Our phones connect us to endless possibilities, but they also demand our constant attention, pulling us in many directions at once. How do you balance using technology with staying focused and mindful? How can we use our phones without losing sight of what really matters?
