#20 Our All-in-One solution for Life- Our Laptops!
Psst, listen... We had a little chat with your laptop and they told us something which is sure you would want to know. Read today's fun blog, if laptops could be our physical buddies!
Rewind your day or your past week and think, what time you open your laptop and what time you shut it down?
Most of you will answer is “9 AM to start with office work and I shut it down at …….. Oh! I don’t shut down my laptop, I just pull the screen down and sleep next to it.” So, technically my laptop never sleeps it just hibernates :P
Some Common phrases that our readers could think that our laptops would say to us
Fair enough! that is the story of almost all young gen people who are hustling, more than people; one thing that has become an inevitable part of our schedule is ‘Our Laptop’. Should it be still called a part of life or given the status of running over lives?
Think for a moment, all the tasks of a good buddy are easily fulfilled by this tiny piece of machine. What?? No??
Work Buddy: The world has gone virtual and adopted Work From Home, so you sit in front of this buddy to connect with colleagues, discuss work and manage your workday
Chill Buddy: You are feeling bored and can’t think of what to do, you type Prime or Netflix or other OTT channel and start binging. Now, you can even binge with your groups taking a feel of watching the show together just like old times in theatres or show halls.
‘Connect with Friend’ Buddy: You want to talk to your friend, you just ping them with a meeting link and talk for hours.
Advise Buddy: Ever you find yourself in dilemma, you just google out your mind and read what 1000 random people have to say in that regard
‘Doing Nothing’ Buddy: we are not doing anything, and just to spend time, we surf the internet or social media platforms or listen to music or discover something new. Nothing is possible without this machine buddy!
Pretty much everything we do in our day needs involvement of this cute machine! That’s our all-in-one solutions to each activity, problem, decision. Undeniably like earlier books are man’s best friends, now it’s replaced by laptops!
But, with this read today, I just want to make you conscious that we are living in the virtual world partially because of the pandemic and partially because we find it easy, quick and comfortable. There is a whole lot of life that resides beyond these screens and it’s time that we make some way to explore it, not inside this rectangle-size machine but in real.
Find alternatives of working around without the laptop, for example, if you are reading a book, try doing it as a hard copy or kindle instead of wandering your mind on a laptop, meet friends in cafes instead of Google Meet/ Zoom. The idea is to have time off from the screens and figure out what you can do, or just take a rest; the alternatives and new activities will automatically find a way to reach you. We just need to allow them to enter!
