Today, with how IT Transforms Our Routines, well-applied technology has become an invaluable aid. From setting the alarm clock for several days to having coffee ready and hot when we get to the kitchen, it’s an integral part of our daily routine, almost like another organ that allows us to live and carry out our personal projects every day.
Therefore, and as a result, we can consequently see its positive impact on various aspects of our routines, such as: it helps us organize ourselves better, learn new things, keep track of our goals and personal progress, and bridge the gaps with friends or family. However, the other side of the coin is that, if we’re not aware, we can be bombarded with harmful or stressful information, or seek out situations in which we are exposed or at risk.
It’s a reality that the use of technology is a 50-50 balance. On the one hand, we have the opportunity to take advantage of this great tool to focus our time on areas of personal growth, such as studying or improving skills. On the other hand, there is a fine line between delegating everything to technology and becoming blind to its possible risks, so we can consider that although computing has transformed, or is already a fundamental part of our daily routines, we must use it as the best possible tool, without forgetting that, as much help as it may be, we also need to consider how we carry out our routines, leaving aside this valuable instrument.
