Adam Alter : Why our screens make us less happy

Adam Alter·TED2017

Why our screens make us less happy

Summary

The reason why our screens make us less happy is that screens steal much time from us, it’s limitless, and current screens rob us of stopping cues also.

Steve Jobs who created an iPhone that has amazing screens said that his kids don’t use it and the limit that how much technology they use is necessary. There are people who don’t use their own products because they know that it has withdrawal symptoms. 

Some screens and apps are enriching, though, using the other one too much makes us miserable. We’re really bad at resisting temptation. We should have time not to use it and put it far away sometimes. It must lead to our richer and meaningful time.
