One topic I remember relating to the topic I presented is about smart phones and social media.
There are sources (which I can give), which discuss the negative effects of using social media and smart phones. For example, some sources say social media isolates you socially from others. Now it falls to the question of "chicken and egg".
Or for example, a famous motivational speaker encouraged NOT to use smartphones right after getting up, or when going to the toilet.
Now I want to say something about using phones on the toilet. Yep, quirky specification. The speaker encouraged NOT to use the phone while using the toilet so we can "enjoy the moment" and just look at the walls around us.
One thing which was overlooked is in the past, people used NEWSPAPERS while using the toilet. So now it's all just on a small device rather than paper. Besides, it's so flexible and you can do so much with it, such as solve puzzles.
This example strengthens my point where doing is better than not doing - better to solve puzzles or read an article for instance, than to stare blankly at the walls
