Is your phone keeping you from gaining self-confidence?

Why is it important to cut back on phone time?
I’ve written a whole post on this, if you missed it, Klick here to head right over.
Any-who.. I really wanted to challenge you to become more aware of how much screentime you have daily, and how it affects your life.
Step. 1 become phone aware
If you’ve ever wandered how much time you spend looking into a screen, it’s your lucky day. Before you tell me that you don’t have time or whatever excuse you can come up with, I’ve got the solution.
Moment!
Moment is a screen time tracker that you can download in App Store. This app tracks how much screen time you have AUTOMATICALLY. You don’t have to do anything but download the app. How convenient is this? I’m in. Whenever I get my phone back..
Step. 2 Become self-aware
I wanna try an experiment with you… Spend one week without your phone.
Okay not completely without it, but as much as possible. Tell friends, family, your dog… whoever needs to know that you’re cutting back and taking this time for yourself…and put it away.
Exchange screen time for time with friends and family. Be present. Read a book. Go for a walk and be aware of your surroundings. Be present with yourself. Write down how you’re feeling, everyday. Keep a no phone journal.
Spend the following week as you usually would with your face glued to your screen, and then be aware of how you’re feeling. Compare the two weeks. How did it feel different?
Step. 3 Make a change
Any-who use your new information to make a better change in your life! Make a plan. How can you spend less time on your phone and more out in the world? Maybe you wanna start spending 1 hour a day without your phone. Or put it away every time you have a meal. Whatever it might be, any change is good.
