Time and Technology - We must Take Charge!
We need to ask ourselves one important question each and every time we reach for another "technology fix": Do I must say i need this?

We have been told that technology will save us time. Why, then, do people feel they have less time than previously? Because they do!

That's right - they have less time than ever before despite cell phones, text messaging, computers and a bunch of other gadgets available to us today. Why? Because folks are not in charge of their time. They believe the "hype" that this gadget helps you to save us time and that software will organize us and that new iPhone could keep everything at our fingertips. Does it? Yes and no. We do have our emails wherever we go and the internet and call functions. What does it cost to have all of this to utilize wherever we go?

It costs a lot of time! Not to mention the money and added stress of always "being on deck" every minute of every day. In the event that you feel you have no time, track the volume of time you are spending chasing the latest technology. You'll be amazed just how much time you may spend finding it and learning how to use it before you can actually use it.

For instance, Twitter is currently the rage as is Facebook. Facebook is amazingly difficult passed the bare bones minimum plus they don't answer emails either when there's a problem.

I wanted to master at least one of these social media sites and figure out how to use it well. I chose Twitter.

There are always a ton of applications related to Twitter - it isn't enough just to tweet! I have just read a fantastic eBook and paid attention to a few videos in the last couple of days only about Twitter. Here are several of the applications I found just in those two sources: listorious, twittas, bit.ly manage my tweets, Twellow, socialoomph, twitbacks, twiveaway, twitter feed, buzzom, bettween, pingfm, etc.

How can anybody person who includes a job, home life, friends, a health program and me time possibly ever learn each one of these plus tweet plus do Facebook plus text plus phone plus utilize the computer for other activities - where will the time result from? Are these application worthwhile? Sure - each one of these has a particular purpose but together they chew up a lot of time.

It's abundantly clear that people have to start taking charge of our time! We should start asking ourselves what we really need and only then discover the gadget to fill that need. One person I understand recently threw out his television. His comment was, "I'm happy to get my entire life back". I think exactly the same applies to the rest of the gadgets - we have to "take our lives back" and live - get out in nature, talk with friends at the restaurant without our mobile phones going off, play with kids, remember to reflect on our lives, create some plans for our lives and all other things that will reconnect us with ourselves, our friends and families and our "live" community "next door". Another person I understand returned her cellular phone. She now has a pay-as-you-go phone. She has saved herself a lot of money every month and yet has the phone in the event of emergencies or should she have to call someone - the keyword t here 's "need". She's the less expensive landline at home with an answering machine.

Every time we have been tempted to follow another application, another cellular phone, another software application or hardware, let's realize the amount of time it will take to learn it and utilize it - is it worth it? What will we need to quit to introduce this new thing into our lives? In terms of time and technology, we should, if we are to reduce our stress and add more pleasure to our lives, take charge of our time.
