What Was Your Life Like Before You Had A Computer?
Can you still remember what your life was life before you had a computer? Although it seems like computers have been around forever, they are relatively new and a large portion of the population has lived in a time when there was no pcs. However, there are some people alive today who use a computer and who have never known a time without a computer. There are even some alive who have lived far more years before the advent of the computer than they will ever live after it
As hard as it is to believe, there was a time when people got along without websites such as Ebay, Twitter, Facebook and even Google. For that matter, there was a time when people lived life with no computer or even a microwave in their home.
Do you remember sitting at the table using the typewriter to do your school report? Oh yeah, those were good times. That was when "delete" meant having a bottle of white out. In fact, now that I say that I wonder how the white out business has been going since the invention of the computer and the delete button on a computer?s keyboard.
Computers are a part of everyday life now and it is hard to imagine going back to a time before them. However, many could argue that while they have made it possible to get far more done in a shorter amount of time, that if mismanaged, they can also complicate life further.
The amount of time that we spend on a computer when we do not have to be tells a lot about our self control. While it may seem easy to turn off the computer, it is not necessarily that easy. Our PCs can be used to access and overwhelming amount of information that can help us to learn a lot. While this is not a bad thing on the surface, it can be a huge time consumer during times that we should be doing other things. If this happened to us, then we should reevaluate.
Kept within control though, computers can make our life a lot easier and more productive than ever before. From researching to writing to managing information, a pc can be a huge time and paper saver. It can also be a great way to share and stay connected with friends, family and others.
One of the keys to managing our computers and making them work for use rather than us work for them is to set our own house rules and live by them. An example of this might be to set a time limit of "free time" on the internet. Another is to set clear "computer times" and stick to that.
With the onset of new technology that will expand the definition of pc, it is important that we get our control now. Learn to utilize the computer to save time, not eat it all up. Once you have the computer under your control and not you under its control, you will find it very helpful to giving you more time.
