Now, are you addicted to your mobile phone? Apparently, almost a third of us are unable to go more than an hour without checking it and a quarter of us recognise we are addicted to these devices. The heaviest smart phone users click, tap and swipe on their phone 5,500 times a day.
Sam
Wow, 25% of people say that they are addicted to their phones. Hmm, I use my phone a lot, but I don’t think I’m addicted to it…

Kee
Well, I’m not so sure…..

Kee
Would you say that you can be distracted by mobile phones…?
Sam
Sorry, I was distracted there, wasn’t I – let’s get on with the show… so what do you think of this story?
Kee
Well, it’s clear isn’t it – people just use their phones way too much. No one seems to be able to pay attention to anything anymore.
Seunghoon
I think you might be right - ‘pay attention’ μ μ§μ€νλ€λ λ»μ

I don’t think it’s that difficult – for some things you just need to be able to pay attention. What’s so difficult about that?
<notification sound>
Sam
Erm… Sorry again, that might have been me. Do people still turn their phones off? Really – all I have to do is make sure I focus on what I’m doing.

Guys, just turn your phones off, then you can focus. There’s no way you can be productive like this, checking your phones every 20 seconds.

And how do you think you could be more productive?
Sam
Erm… by really focusing on my work.
Kee
And what do you think would help you focus?
Sam
I need to make sure I only pay attention to my work and not be distracted.
Kee
Really? And what do you think might be distracting you?

Sam
You’re talking about my phone aren’t you?

How did you guess?
