There is a fine line between being tech-savvy and being tech-dependent. Being tech-savvy entails harnessing the power of technology to elevate a process or add value to our lives – communicating, creating, learning, sharing, and working.

My grandfather spent the last years of his life watching TV from his recliner and died at 76. My father spent the last years of his life watching TV from his recliner and died at 79. Both men were so afraid of death that they spent their remaining years hiding from life. Look, we don’t know when our time will be up, but no one dies wishing they spent more time watching TV.
