Writer Kevin Barry has admitted to checking his emails 150 times a day, picking up his iPhone on waking in the morning and to having something of a confidence crisis if there are no emails in his inbox.

It’s affecting him to the point that he now thinks and writes in small chunks, flitting from one idea to another – the way we absorb stuff on the internet – so much so that he now finds it difficult to read a conventional book.

I imagine that we all feel a but like this at times. There is a solution – switch it off. Have a few hours a day in the normal world, I’ll bet you that the world won’t stop turning because of it.

Try to find time to read these posts though.

Have a curious day.
