2022/05/2 (Is Modern Technology Harmful to Humans?)

 Starting from today I will start writing my opinion about questions. This will be good exercise to improve my critical thinking skills and arguments skills. 


Is Modern technology harmful to human?

    Modern Technology have transformed our world. It allowed us to live in comfortable way compared with hundreds of years ago.  We have the internet which allowed us to communicate and share information with the whole world. It is now very easy to know the news of any country by the internet or the TV. You can call your family or friends while you are in your home instead to go to their house and meet them in person. Of course this comes with advantages and disadvantages. 

On one hand, Technology have allowed us to communicate very easily. Now with a click in your phone, you can call anyone anywhere in the world. If you wants to know about other cultures, you can just open YouTube and watch videos. If you want to share information with your family or friends, you can do it in few seconds. Technology have helped us to have Air Conditioner which have saved the lives of millions of people around the glob.  Finally, technology contributed in developing vaccines which have saved billions of people since the day it was invented.  

On the Other hands, technology have many disadvantages. For example, children can have access to the internet with no supervision and they might watch phonography. The internet have drove my people around the world to pornography addiction. This is a serious problem. Also, the internet contributed in the rise of people who have social anxiety because they are not used to talk with people in person. Moreover, technology have helped people to spy on other people and invade their privacy. 

However, technology is like a knife. You can cook with it and you can kill with it. It is all depends on how people use it. If we are talking about the general impact for technology, I will definitely say the advantages are much greater than the disadvantages. 

Thanks for reading

Why You Cannot Achieve More Than One Goal in The Same Period of Time

One of the most common traps people fall into is trying very hard to achieve more than one goal in the same period of time. They might be very motivated to master more than one skill so they create a schedule to help them work on all their goals in a daily basis. They keep working hard on multiple goals in the same time for months without getting a satisfying result. Then they start to question their strategy in learning each skill and change it and keep repeating the same cycle again. They start to work on one goal all the time but after two or three weeks they start to work in more than one goal and the cycle keep repeating.             What I mean by a goal or a skill in this post is something like, improving your academic performance, master a musical instrument, learn a language, have a good body shape, learn drawing, be a great engineer, be great writer, learn a coding language, …etc. These are just some examples but you ...

2022/05/04 (Why Calculus is Difficult?)

 During our 12 years in school, we have learned all algebra techniques such as additions, substructions, division and multiplication. In each one of these techniques, there are many techniques. If you have an exam, you know which techniques you need to study to pass the exam.  However, in Calculus it is more complicated. In each problem, you need to use a technique before you start solving the problem. In each exam, you will have to use many techniques before you start solving any problem. You are supposed to be able to use each one of these techniques. But there are so many techniques and you don't remember all of them because you haven't used them since long time ago. Or you might be not sure which technique you need to use because some problems can be solved by more than one specific technique.  So when students start studying Calculus, the teacher assumes that they already know all the simple techniques that schools teach. Calculus teacher keep repeating this phrases ...

Poison Positivity

 When I was in my third year in college, I had an acute depression. I had very bad grades and I had a lot of family problems. Starting from 2018, I decided to listen and read about self-development. I immersed myself in this world and I replaced my negativity with positivity. I literally brainwashed my brain. After I have have solved my depression problem completely, I started looking unsatisfied on many self-development post. I realized that often time, being optimistic is just a way of escaping the brutal truth. It is actually will make you less happy instead of more happy. Even too much positivity is bad for you.
