Phone Habit: Present in Body, Absent in Attention

Share

What is it with us and phones that we have become virtually attached to them that we can barely spend 5 minutes without them.

I was watching a live TV show earlier today, a lifestyle discussion program that involved 4 persons. I can tell you that apart from the host who paid close attention to the others when they spoke, the other 3 people were practically focused on their phones anytime it wasn’t their turn to speak.

Yes, I know the viewers at home are the intended audience, but by putting a focus on the phone rather than on the person sitting next to you inadvertently sends a negative vibe to us at home that perhaps the conversation doesn’t matter to you. I believe giving eye contact on live shows makes for quality broadcasting.

We can definitely do better with the use of phones.
