When you are stuck in your past, a new environment, new opportunities and even new technology will not help you detach except you have a changed perspective. New technology could make you improve the way you relate with your past but it cannot make you change how you see your past. I see people whose only point of reference in life are old friends, an old job, old ways of solving problems or even old school entertainment. Whatever they want to do must be seen through the parameters of how it used to be done if not you cannot get them on board. With new technology, they just develop a new and more effective way of presenting old ideas. Carrying that kind of weight from your past makes progress almost impossible. The world is moving very fast, not just technologically but in idea generation. You can only create and do innovative things if you are abreast with the current realities and not when you have the latest smart gadgets. Changing the world and pushing your boundaries require being mentally smart and being up to date with the current challenges, trends and ideologies. If you have smart devices that cannot help you look at ways of improving your life and your environment, you are like fish out of water. What is the use spending so much money on smart gadgets if they will only help you try to translate your past to people who are in another time zone. We need to know the reason why the world is getting smarter if we have any intentions of making a difference. Come out your past and do not look back except you need information to help you understand your present and conquer your future. Have a nice day!
