I recently started intentionally leaving my phone behind precisely to get those uncomfortable feelings back again, albeit to some controlled degree. I enjoy having to problem solve, I enjoy navigating novel situations, I enjoy feeling real accomplishment after solving problems rather than just having the answers given to me.
Of course there's other ways to get those feelings in life, but I was in general just finding myself getting way too comfortable in daily life. It felt abnormal, unnatural, in a way. There's also the added benefit of not being able to retreat into your phone for entertainment, it forces you to engage with the world around you.
- shkkmo 4y agoI find the value of a smart phone irreplacable, it allows me to do all kinds of things and live all kinds of ways that were impossible before. Yet I also love leaving my smart phone at home, or in my pocket, and trying to get lost and then get home.
- eptcyka 4y agoWhy not focus on solving problems the smartphone hasn't solved yet?
