My brain are getting lazy these days.. I always use calculator whenever I want to count something, like discount price at mall, even sometimes only for small things: my changes after buying something at convenience store,.. I use calculator in my cellphone.. My brain is getting too lazy to think.. Sometimes I agree with word saying technology makes our brain lazy..

Calculator  - Calculator not to be used for every calculation.
You are not lazy really but this is your mind set which is making you lazy. Please come out of this set up otherwise you will be ..... one day. Using of calculator in hurry is good but not all the time. make a practice of avoiding daily. You will see that after few days of time you have started claculating at your own correctly without taking help of calculator. You are young, brain must work fast. Do so breathing exercise to improve memory power.

I am weak when it comes to mental math. I have difficulty adding, multiplying, etc. numbers in my head. If there is a calculator by my side, then I will use the calculator. But I made it to the point to calculate manually so as keep my brain from being dull. If the computations is complex, then I use a calculator.

its true for me too...When i was in 10th standard i used to calculate through brain only.I have even learned vedic mathematics on those days to make calculations simpler.That was the time when calculators are not allowed for the exams.But nowadays for my b-tech exams too calculators are allowed for exams. So we used to think why do u need to use calculator when technology is allowed. So for every calculations i started using calculator. Even i sit before computer,to multiply two numbers i will take calculator in system and multiply. Brain is getting ttoo lazy nowadays.I earlier thought that i shud change this habit. Thanks for making me remember this habit.

I don't use the calculator all the time. I remember when I was in College days, our professor do not allow us to use that gadget for no reason. It's really hard because he teaches us Accounting subject so we really need to use calculator. But then I realized, it makes the brain healthy. It seems like an exercise for the brain when we do not use the gadget.
