Smartphones are amazing devices. They can do so many things.
They can even make phone calls.
But, there are two things smartphones take away from us.
The ability to be lonely.
And the ability to be bored.
When we can get acquainted with being with ourselves for a prolonged period of time, we can get some of our best work done. And when we're bored, we open up our minds for spontaneous, creative thoughts to enter.
Just leave your phone outside the room for an hour or two. Or put it in airplane mode.
After the initial feeling of discomfort, I promise you'll feel a difference.
Never miss a blog post!
For parents, students, and anyone else who believes that music can and should be a meaningful part of everyone's life.

Im Glad i wasn’t born in the time where u get a smart phone for ur 5th birthday!! Heck, I’m even old enough to be part of the tech challenged age group yet I’ve fought that one off.

Although that means invariably someone needed me at that exact moment and I could be reached!! Lol!!
