Alternatives for the Complicated



In order to survive in this universe, there are a lot of things to consider: the objective, the purpose, and its possible effects. Those are the three points needed to assemble the perfect plan. Every little thing that we do is based from the plan we conjure in order to achieve something greater than what we already possess. It might sound simple to the ears, but friend, it never is. At least, you never allow it to be as simple as it sounds. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, things get so complicated that you no longer understand what’s going on.

Not to make things complicated (as this is what this very article is about), let’s put our focus on technology, particularly those posh mobile accessories you find on mall stores and other well-known online mobile stores such as E_cell. Say you are “planning” on buying these accessories; you need a little lecture on what’s important, what’s not, and how to live with that.

What’s important? It fulfils the purpose.

Technology’s very purpose is to supply convenience to everyone who needs it, and that is every breathing person in the universe, not the Earth, the universe. Convenience can be defined as shortcuts to time-consuming tasks. Being the genius that they are, these shortcuts have been made their own shortcuts making our jobs a lot less complicated. 

What’s not? The price tag.

Do you really have to purchase a high-end charger to revive a gadget you’ve wasted all your thrifty savings to? If you are the rich kind, money is not an issue. But for the majority of us, striving to live by with what we have, those steep add-ons aren’t such a good idea. You know what’s free? The Internet! Instead of browsing through sites that offer you those gorgeous adornments for mobile devices, why not search the web for those do-it-yourself projects? DIY projects are meant to limit the consumer from consuming too much which is the best thing about them. A hundred bucks is reduced to ten or less dollars. You can have your own portable charger with only patience and strict compliance of the instructions.

How to live with it? Confidence is the key.

Even if you are dressed up with the cheapest sort of dress or jeans, if you have the confidence to wear it, pretty sure you can walk it. The same is true with the accessories you cover not yourself, of course, but your precious device. No one has to know where you bought them. As long as they function properly like the extravagant ones, you won’t have any problem.


There is absolutely no need for things to get complicated when there is a long list of alternatives, both simple and quite doable, to get you through the day.
