Heya playas, when you wake up in the morning what is the first thing that you do? If it's

reaching over and grabbing your phone then you've got a problem, but you're not alone.

We all are obsessed with our phones but today I'm gonna explain to you why it's bad for

us and how you can break that cycle. This is The Josh Speaks. You're watching The Josh

Speaks. Technology is great, don't get me wrong but we are slowly becoming zombies who

can't focus on something for more than a few seconds at a time. Whenever you find yourself

waiting in line, do you take out your phone? Even if you're walking through a hallway or

down a staircase, our natural instincts are evolving to make us feel like we always need

to reach for our phone. Some of you might feel like, what's so bad about that? In that

moment I'm bored and I'm just curing that boredom. That's what you think is happening,

but here's the truth. A study was done on rats to see how they would react to a consistent

reward system and a sporadic one. In the first test whenever the rat pushed the lever he

was rewarded with a piece of food. Slowly the rat stopped caring about it because he

realized that his action led to that reaction. But in the second test the delivery of food

when pressing the lever was randomized. He could press it 1 time or he could press it

100 times and somewhere in between the food would come down. This excited the rat, so

much that he kept pressing it and pressing it because he was waiting for that big delivery

to happen. Humans aren't all that different. The majority of us are always carrying our

phones and whenever we hear a text message sound, an email notification or a Facebook

IM we feel compelled to check it out. Those sporadic gems throughout the day keep us on

the edge of our toes, so much that we constantly check our phones even when there's nothing

new to check. How many times have you been caught in the loop where you run through all

your social networks, pause for a second and then run through that loop again? That's not

curing boredom, that's obsession. And on top of all that this sense of "multi-tasking"

that we think we're doing really isn't multi-tasking either. One of the only times where we actually

can successfully multi-tasking is when we're walking. But any time we're switching tabs

on a computer or doing two things at once, we're really task switching. For most people,

it's easier to task switch all day long because it prevents us from having to deal with what

we're absolutely terrified of, our simple existence. But are we too far gone at this

point? Is it impossible for us to pull away from our phones and not feel like when we

do we're gonna miss something important? Leave your comments below so we can talk about it.

At first detaching from this thing can sometimes make you feel weird and in some cases, naked.

If you can set aside time each day to focus on one solid thing without any distractions,

you'll feel a lot more relaxed and awakened. Trust me on that one. As always guys, love

and peace. Hey thanks for watching! If you're new to the channel make sure to hit the subscribe
