Answer to Question 1

Turn it off. Turn off your cell phone while at the movies, while enjoying dinner, or when wanting to spend uninterrupted quality time with family members and friends.
Slow down your reaction time. Though technology often seems to run at hyper-speed, it doesn't mean you need to try and keep up at an impractical pace. Utilize email filters, and schedule set times during the day to check texts, emails, and phone messages.
Remove digital distractions. Don't let your gadgets distract you from your school and work productivity, particularly in situations that require sustained attention and concentration, like studying for an exam, finishing a project, or writing creatively.
Avoid the urge to multi-task. Research has found that multi-tasking actually lowers overall productivity, and students and employees who constantly switch between tasks are less likely to retain important information and more likely to make mistakes. Instead, practice focusing your energy on one task at a time through completion.
Take time to fully unplug. Don't let technology dominate your life. Schedule regular gadget-free time away from your computer, cell phone, or other handheld devices to allow both your eyes and mind to rest.
