Simplified Meaning:

In today's world, we are very good at creating and improving tools and technologies. However, we often forget about the reasons why we are using these tools in the first place. For example, consider smartphones: they are amazing devices with powerful features that help us stay connected and get things done. But many people spend hours aimlessly scrolling on social media, losing sight of more meaningful activities like spending time with family or working on personal goals. This quote highlights that we are excellent at perfecting the ways to do things but often get confused about what our true goals should be. To make the most out of life, we need to remember the purpose behind our actions and use our skills and tools to achieve those meaningful goals.
