Know when to stay off your phone.
适时放下手机
This is another one of those things I'm still trying to be better at. There are times for Instagramming and texting, and there are times where it's truly obvious you're not present because your eyes are glued to your screen.
这是另一条我坚持实行的生活方式。很多时候你都在发短信或浏览社交网络,还有很多时候你“在似不在”,因为你的眼睛始终牢牢盯着你的手机屏幕。
I had one of those moments a fewdays ago, when I was out to dinner -- I was so focused on answering some workemails, that when I finally looked up, I realized my dinner companions were silent, and had been waiting for me to get off my phone.
前不久我也做过这样的囧事,当我和好友出去晚餐时,我始终低头用手机回复那些工作邮件,当我抬起头时,看见好友正安静的等待着我结束和手机的“约会”。
It was a disruption and a distraction, and frankly, quite rude. Let's all make a point to end the madness.
和朋友用餐时不断的看手机不只是对用餐的打扰,确切的说,非常的粗鲁、不礼貌。所以,是时候放下你的手机了。
