This is interesting because it touches on a broader topic that I am very interested in, but do not see anyone addressing directly. That topic is, humans and extremes. Meaning, humans seem to struggle with moderation in almost all aspects of life. We do one thing to the extreme, realize it's not good, so we over correct and go the opposite extreme. Then we realize that's not the answer, and rinse and repeat. But we fail to seem to realize that it's the extremities we take things to that are harmful, not the things themselves. Moderation in everything is closer to the answer than one extreme over another. It's almost as if most humans are addicts/have that addiction drive, it's just not narcotic drugs that the majority become addicted to. But it can be even simpler than that. Take love and hate. Anyways, as always, thanks for the share Ted!

i had exactly the same thought! its kind of one thing to 100% lock away your phone or sweets or whatever, but its soooo hard to go the moderate way and be deliberate.

@Mick Slann I think if moderation was natural, we’d all get bored pretty quick, and find something extreme. Humans are curious, and I think that also contributes to us being extremists sometimes, makes life more interesting too. There’s many factors to it, I think there’s a lot of things combined together that make it hard for some people to indulge in things moderately, and others find it hard to indulge in extremes. There’s so many people out there with different natures and needs that I don’t believe we can pin it down on moderation being natural or not

The occidental world and most of its moral values and behaviour is a purely and simply genetical psychological heritage from previous/parent cultures that ended up being the most dominant and effectively the most fit for survival and thriving over other cultures that might have had explored different avenues of behaviours and alternative hierarchies of values. We have countless examples of ancient wisdom and recognition of dangerous or toxic individual and group behaviour, philosophy has explored the topic since the dawn of time and recorded history. Simple answer is we're not as much in control as we think we are of our bodily vessels. It takes a lot of work to push against such established social behaviour on an individual level. We are addicted to convenience, comfort and the illusion of control. As the more we go in this direction, the more we seem to get rewarded somehow.... its always a trade-off. With every major evolutionary step we gain something and we loose something in return. We hardly notice or remember what or why things change or creep in into our lives and habits that comes with it. We never really grasp the implications of our involuntary drift, we're on a floating device with no real way to keep the cape, only our brain have become so good at rationalising, justifying our choices...

man, he can speak ! great talk. Another dopamine hit at 4 am because i needed a fix. I suddenly realize that i'm a dopamine addict... and as strange as it sounds, i really feel connected online because i live in a place with really un inspiring individuals who aren't really that intellectual so my go to place is youtube, its that place where all my virtual friends live who have no clue that i'm alive...

Making a conscious decision to do an internet detox, i may have an addiction and this video just made me realize it

My favorite book on this topic is "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze. I highly recommend reading it if you're interested in practical advice around digital detoxing.

Just bought because of this comment - thank you 🙏

My husband is a student of his and that’s what brought me here. I’ve eavesdropped on many of his lectures and he really peaked my interest. I love that what he says actually has substance. My phone is a vice and it only became more obvious after I had our daughter, then I couldn’t spend as much time on my phone. I will keep trying to be better without an iPhone in my hand.

Time for me to start doing digital detoxing too. I am definitely someone who can't get anything done because I get way too easily distracted, and I feel computers and phones, etc are controlling me.

I swear all of humanity needs to watch this

thank you for your experience and telling others.

Very enjoyable video ... Now I know through this gentleman's Digital detox problem that im not the only one going through this. Thank you for sharing and Ted X videos are educational.🙂

I totally confirm the point of increased creativity..I quit social media and minimized the use of mobile phone ..one day out of boredom I created my neography in chinese-like 'alphabets' (coz I like chinese and japanese alphabets)I refined and memorised them by the evening I was able to write paragraphs using my beautiful Chinese japanese looking neography !! That is awesome ..in the past it would look very challenging and difficult to memorise alphabets of an exisiting language let alone creating a system that is new and personalised and be able to use it in a matter of hours !!

Best professor ever!!!!

This is how men should lead their families!

you open my eyes

This is one of the best TedX Talk..The topic is very much needed to be discussed and the way he pitched out the topic and spoke its Amazing!!

Agreed! Maybe they should show this in schools or libraries.

Read his book. It's pretty amazing

Its a great idea to start a digital detox on one day of weekend.

Amazing :) Family quality time should be a priority to all of us

I’m just mad that my screen time includes when I’m listening to an audio book as I sew.

I thought not to watch until the end but it was really interesting in the beginning that I wanted to know more

Thank you sir

The best thing to tackle the addiction in my experience is to just put away your phone somewhere e.g. your car when you go home so that you don’t have the access to it

Nice job, Josh.

Thanks for making this. What were your motivations?

Thank you.

5:13 solution for digital detox

Please upload video with English subtitles

12:18 - 12:31 - the goal

But seriously, who in their right mind goes to Costco on a Saturday? Oh right. Everybody.

Spaß macht's darüber nen Aufsatz zu schreiben

so no books, magazines or hobbies? Just say that you want to dedicate 24 hours to your family....while I agree that screens are changing our free time and habits...I don't agree that screens are killing family time on their own....humans have said the same thing about learning to read, the radio and the TV....

Interesting you should bring that up; I just posted a 4-part video series on the various revolutions that have impacted the way humans communicate. You're absolutely right - this argument has been raging for thousands of years. The key is in learning to control our attention, and taking a day off to focus on non-screen activities is a step toward taking back that control. We need to break our habits, and screen addiction is one habit that can take over before we realize what has happened.
