“Technology has become a crutch I'm using to get through an uncomfortable experience. Its a way of putting off the work but still convincing myself I'm doing something worthwhile. Aside from talking to my family, none of it has been worthwhile. In this instance technology is a distraction that is keeping me from feeling uncomfortable, from thinking too deeply, from doing too much. The biggest culprits behind the endless scrolling:
- Boredom
- procrastination
- emotional discomfort
- self sabotage
- self loathing or dissatisfaction
- habit
- looking for someone or something to inspire us.

Always pay attention to what we're doing and why we're doing it. Use it as a tool, not as a crutch.”

“Let your new goal be to be a person who is “imperturbable”, a person who is very hard to disturb or upset. Set your mind on your goal and let nothing distract you from it.”
Jeanette Coron
