The amount of our lives that revolves around technology is amazing. There isn't anywhere you can go where you won't see someone on a cell phone, staring at a tablet, or a laptop. We rely so strongly on technology these days, we sometimes forget they aren't immune to human error.
Frustration kicked in for me after a solid four hours of work lost because my computer shut down unexpectedly on my and I had not set up for auto backup of my work to be saved so I didn't have to manually do it every so often. Well needless to say the lost work was a tough reminder to go into the settings and correct that human error.
Going to the power of positive thinking, it forced me to take responsibility for the lost work because I didn't set up the autosave option as well as gave me the ability to accept the previous changes may not have been the correct ones but if they were, I would repeat them the same. Everything happens for a reason.
Technology is part of our lives and will continue to be, but we still have to keep in mind, it is not perfect and will fail because of human error.
