Have you ever felt like you were too dependent on technology? Maybe you felt a sense of anxiety when you couldn’t find your phone, or maybe you realized you don’t know how to navigate to your friend’s house without the help of your phone-based GPS app.

Despite the labels that baby boomers hate technology and that millennials are obsessed with it, the reality is that all generations embrace digital life to some extent, though some are more cautious than others when it comes to accepting our level of technological integration. The reality is, technological dependence is destructive, both on an individual and on a societal level—and we need to reject that dependence if we’re going to keep innovating.
