Technology is such a a a....

I know it can be positive, but at times, technology is such a stress to your life. All I wanted to do was sit down and start my Chem HW: the sitting part was a success. I click on the MasteringChemistry tab on my laptop and just when I'm about to log in, I remember I wanted to call someone. When I unlock the screen, I am immediately distracted by the new notifications on WhatsApp, Snapchat + more. And there goes some 5+ minutes I can never get back. Why? Why? All I want is to work productively to achieve my dreams. God help me!
