I’ve just finished reading Johann Hari’s book Stolen Focus - it resonated so powerfully for me!

I’m really prioritizing building focus and minimizing distraction right now. I try for a digital detox on Sundays, have used the downtime setting on my iPhone to turn off apps from 7pm to 7am everyday and am trying to get my average screen time below 1 hr a day (a work in progress for sure).

To be honest, I have a very complicated relationship with my smart phone - it’s too invasive for me and I’ve often got it on silent. I wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry when my (adult) children told me recently they’ve put their father down as ‘next of kin’ because I so rarely answer my phone. Yikes!
