Life without Modern Gadgets
LIFE WITHOUT MODERN GADETS................

A lifestyle without the modern gadgets, sounds quite a hard life to live. But lets look deep and analyse both sides of this.
Life de-modernised would be a time consuming one requiring a lot of time and effort, for example, can u imagine urself carrying around your home stereo, you cannot!!.. instead we have mp3 players and iPod's too boost our speed in life.
Although there are so many negatives to be seen on the surface when considering a lifestyle without modern gadgets, we as people have actually forgotten the beauty and simplicity of life without modern technology. The simplicity of learning to do things by yourself instead of a 'machine', the simplicity of working together physically instead of creating your 'own workspace at home' as 'teleworking', confining you to a lonesome boundary in life giving you all the opportunity to procrastinate in ur own home..
Technology is good but has also brought people to a height of extreme convenience where we easily forget our roots of simplicity.

Time is very precious in today’s era. Everyone wants to do things in very short span. The quotation “Stitch in time saves nine” means if you finish something in time, you will be able to do ten things in the time you saved. Keeping this in view, scientists and technologysts developed many new things to save as much time as possible. In each and every sphere of life we can find machines and gadgets that saves our time a lot. Wether it is business, transport, education, communication, new technology did a lot. ATM is one of the inventions of time saving gadgets. ATM is expanded as Automated Teller Machine. Or sometimes we can also say it as Any Time Money machine which is true in its sense. We can draw money at any instance of time with the help of ATM, a day or mid-night, in emergencies, or when we shop we need not have to carry cash, we simply apply the credit or debit card, same like ATM card. Initially, we have to stand in long

    But it seems like people depend on this technology too much. For example people almost cannot live without their mobile phones. We will not be able to be out of touch for even a few minutes. Another point is the Internet. Now any information is available to anyone who has a computer and an internet connection. However, there are a lot of bad things about the net – pornography, viruses, spam. It is much easier to steal important information or commit a crime. Companies could lose huge amounts of money because of cyber-crime. Moreover, failure of electronic appliances, for instance computer equipment, could lead to unpredictable consequences in business, and such fields as military forces and aviating.…

    I have some older friends who know nothing about technology and would not know how to use it. They do not have the internet or a cell phone and say that they do not need it. We sometimes tease them by calling them Fred Flintstone and ask how everything is in Bedrock. I think that now a day’s technology has become a necessity and not just a luxury.…

    Can humans live without their smartphones in their hands, their music playing from their MP3s, and their TVs flashing the latest news 24/7? Probably not. Electronics have been a major part of our lives since their beginning. They have provided communication worldwide, and send information about the important events in real time. Connections have increased, and social boundaries have disappeared. Take a step forward to what electronics have done to people today, and it can be assumed that electronics have done nothing but benefit us. However, this is proved to be mistaken when the devices we held interfered with the relationships we possess. In Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, people are so dependant on technology it damages their need to socialize, and instead it detaches them from important relationships and issues within their community.…

    Everyone I know, myself included, relies to heavily on technology. When my iPhone reaches a level below 25% battery it makes me nervous. I begin to question, what will I do without my phone, what if someone posts something on Facebook, or tags me in a tweet? A couple of years ago I was involved in a research project. I let my phone, computer and iPod die and didn’t charge them for 48 hours to see what I would do with my time instead of face book, twitter, and other useless time-fillers all contained within this small computer. On top of that I unplugged my television and did not touch any of my electronics for a whole day. That one day was one of the most productive I have ever had. I finished all my homework completely and thoroughly in what felt like no time at all. When I took a break from doing my work I had nothing to do except think; which I loved. I thought, I drew, I read, I talked and I had a great day. I never thought that I could survive the day without technology but I did more that…

    The world is full of technology; Almost everywhere you look you will see some form of technology, from a cellphone that can speak to you, to a computer that can run anything your heart desires. As Martin Lindstorm writes in his article “Friends who have accidentally left home without their iPhones tell me they feel stressed-out, cut off and somehow un-whole.” (Lindstorm). People tend to be overly attached to their phones, as if they were people capable of loving them back. I see how this could be possible because your phone does connect you to the people that you care about and when you can’t contact them life is a little bit more difficult. The people of this country seem to always need the fastest and newest piece of technology, often because it is viewed as a part of one’s social status. For this assignment I was tasked with going a full 24 hours without using technology. Since, society is so connected, I found this project to be very interesting, and relevant to the present day. This seemed like it would be an easy task that would not take much effort or thought; however a simple 24 hours unplugged from technology subsequently unplugged me from the world. I have never seen myself as someone who needs their devices so much; however we often learn new things about ourselves.…

    Given the prevalence of technology in the majority of mass consumerism, society has grown accustom to its existence in everyday life utilizing the benefits that technology would have to offer. “In the past four decades technology has fundamentally altered our lives: from the way we work to how we communicate to how we fight wars.” (Al-Rodhan). Emerging technologies has made information readily available and tasks that were once too laborious are now done with a touch of a button. Consequently, some of these “benefits” become too irresistible, creating a very strong dependence for everyday tasks.…

    I find that being a teenager living in a first world country in the 21st century, it is nearly impossible to not be reliant on technology. Our whole life is ran by computers from our ride to school all the way to what makes our coffee in the morning. I find that even if I don't want to, I will never not be reliant on technology. Each and every morning I wake up and turn off my alarm which means the very first thing I do in the morning is use technology, all the way until the last thing I do at night which would either be turning off my lamp from reading a book or finishing an episode on netflix, technology is the first thing I use from when I close my eyes until I open them.…

    If we stop depending on technology so much we would know how to do without. Like for an example if when we go out with family or friends we all put a bowl at the table and have everyone put their phones and soon they will notice how better it is without their phones . An learn how to use it less. Instead of buying a book online go to the barns and nobles and buy a book . It will keep you off your computer laptop and etc. we should try less to depend on technology and see how far we go without and how less we see we need it…

    When I have no access to technology, I feel so much more independent. I have more time to myself, and time to get things done without distracted. When I have technology, I constantly find myself checking my social media to see what friends are doing. With no technology, I don’t have to worry about what others are doing, or if I’m missing out of something. I don’t have that longing. I can also focus more on myself and what I need to do for me. I feel like I have independence from the outside and that I’m not being controlled.…

    The short, informative essay “Could You Live With Less” by Stephanie Mills describes a simple life that is comfortable. “There's electric lighting, indoor plumbing, a tankless water heater, a second hand refrigerator and range- but no microwave oven, no dishwasher, no blow dryer, no cordless phone” (1). Mills feels as though technology has redefined what it means to live. She wrote,“Technology should abet my life, not dominate or redefine it” (1). Mills wants readers to see another option of living. She tells her admirable point of view in a way that informs people that technology does not satisfy emotional needs. Stephany avoids technology because she believes that…

    What was life like back in the simpler times? Everyone can agree that life back then was extremely different from what it is today. There were no phones, or e-mail. No Facebook, cars, dishwashers, or microwaves. In fact if one could travel back in time and see what it was they might think they were sent to some other planet. All of the advancements have improved human civilization and helped people move forward. Life today is much better than it was back in the simpler times by far because of our technological advances.…
