Situation is far worse than what we can imagine. Consumption of endless information on the internet is getting easier as top paid social scientists at facebook etc. make sure you fall victim of FOMO ( Fear Of Missing Out). An anxiety that something exciting or interesting event may currently be happening elsewhere, often aroused by posts seen on a social media website. Every digital/social company out there is desperate to grab our attention.

We have constantly being pulled away from paying attention to the beautiful things that enrich our lives to some totally insignificant notification sound on our mobile like our life depends on it.

Facebook is not selling anything to you. If you’re not paying for the product, You are the product — remember?

Lot many of researches have proved that our minds are being hijacked by the excessive use of technology. Chemicals are in play like Adrenaline Broadcasting, Oxytocin Release and Rush of Dopamine and you lose control and you just lost another hour on mobile/internet without getting anything done.
