Are We Getting Worse Over Time?

A few years back, I remember looking around at my life and just thinking, am I getting worse? Am I getting worse over time? And so it was a little alarming. This has been the instrument that has made me sort of go in reverse in a lot of areas that I do want to be growing in. When I talk to other people about this, they have the same experience: They're like, I hate my phone. It's like a love hate relationship. Like this thing is awesome but at the same time, massive distraction.
