I was at work today and as usual at lunchtime, I went to sit in my favourite coffee shop. Normally, I bring my smartphone with me and spend my break reading news headlines, updating my Facebook status and checking out Twitter. Today, I left my smartphone behind and so was left with nothing to do but just sit there and drink my coffee. What really surprised me was just sitting there and having nothing else to concentrate on but myself and the coffee was really difficult.
Nonetheless, just drinking my coffee without dividing my attention did me an awful lot of good. I spend so much time looking at a screen be at my computer, my phone, my Sony Reader or my television, that some time away from electronics can't be a bad thing.
