Phones Boon or Bane?
 
When a person opens his phone, time flies. The person doesn’t realise how what was meant to be a quick glance turns into several minutes of inane scrolling on the internet. Valuable time lost! The smartphone is a boon, a technological wonder, but, at the same time, over consumption of online data can be dangerous. Watching reels, memes, videos one after the other can damage a person’s power to focus and concentrate. It damages a person’s efficiency to execute any task or work and therefore the need for limitation on one’s screen time, so that time for meaningful activities can be prioritised.
