![]() ![]() And everytime I started a book, I never seemed to finish it. I used to be a voracious reader but I haven’t really read anything except magazines lately. I wonder if the lessening of my materialistic impulses are related to less social media and marketing exposure? I think so and that’s just one of several benefits I’ve found from being less addicted to my phone.Īnother benefit has been a generally better attention span: I can finally sit down again and read a book for prolonged periods of time. And not coincidentally I have recently decided to say no to any more gifted items and cool it with acquiring more items for review (though I’m finishing up my backlog of reviews still). But I can easily say that after a cooling off period, I now have a much healthier relationship with my phone and subsequently I feel much more balanced than I have in a while. Ok so I didn’t really break up with my iPhone in that I no longer use it or that I went back to a 90’s flip phone (that would be too drastic lol). When we decide what to pay attention to in the moment, we are making a broader decision about how we want to spend our lives.Īnd with that quote, I knew I had to read this book, How To Break Up With Your Phone. We remember only what we pay attention to. We experience only what we pay attention to. ![]() Our attention is the most valuable things we have. ![]()
