Unplugging From Technology

Unplug

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to become consumed by technology. From smartphones to laptops, we constantly find ourselves connected to screens, notifications, and information overload. However, taking the time to unplug from technology can benefit our mental and physical well-being.

Unplugging helps us disconnect from the digital world’s constant distractions and noise. The important thing is it gives our minds a chance to rest and recharge. It provides an opportunity to be present in the moment, engage in face-to-face interactions, and appreciate the world around us. Whether walking in nature, reading a book, or practicing mindfulness, unplugging can help reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance creativity.

So, consider taking a break when you feel overwhelmed by technology. Set aside time daily to disconnect, be mindful, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Unplugging is the reset you need to feel more balanced, connected, and content in today’s tech-driven society.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future. Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society.
