Next morning you will not allow for any reactive activities. No social media, mail, news, or YouTube.

To remind your half-asleep brain of your commitment to this challenge the next morning, charge your phone somewhere much further away from where you usually charge it. If you use your phone as an alarm, place it closer but noticeably farther away than usual. Perhaps underneath your bed.

Instead of using your phone, attend more closely to perhaps the sensation of eating your breakfast. Likewise, think about what you want to do to be happy at the end of today. What would make you proud?

After you leave your apartment, go back to this challenge and complete it. Afterwards, you can put your phone in your pocket or, optionally even better, in your bag during your commute. You can check your phone when you arrive if you want to.

How do you feel? Ask yourself, might it be true that your phone is so concerned with what you will watch, sometimes at the expense of what you want?
