你沉迷在手机的世界里

 

Sure, cell phones are super cool gadgets² that can leave us entranced when we use them.

 

While that's fun, think about all the time you are wasting with your phone.

 

Even worse, think about all the relationships that might be affected³.

 

Maybe you're texting or searching the internet while you're having dinner with your spouse⁴ or kids.

 

If you are, you're missing out on meaningful time you can spend with your loved ones – or time you could devote to making a plan for your future.
