Digital minimalism

Note that every step I said I have tried before and is under one of the prior categories.

This one is very good for a start.

Scroll through your apps, shortcuts and widgets and think about them, and ask your self one of the following questions, what value does this add to my life in general, is it really beneficial?, How long and how often do I use it?

If the answer was not so much and you use it for too long and it doest add any thing useful to you or you use it too little so try to make harder to reach by either getting it away of your main homescreen or hiding it or putting a lock on it or even better delete it if you can

Social media is one of the most harmful and destructive things you could have in your mobile and will talke a long time to figure out what is right to be done, but generally you can start by first unfollowing less important accounts and geoyps, setting times for using it, and managing your time on them.

Here's a list of the most important social media platforms and what to do with them.

• Archive

Scroll through your contacts and see which of them you don't use anymore , you are going to find plenty of them ( I found around 50)

• Mute

Mute chats or groups that make a really big noise in your notification panel and aren't so important

• Custimize

Make special notification sounds for the chats important to you.

You could pretty much do the same plus you can cost

Tracking and controlling your screen time and app time usage help you be more mindful with the things you do digitally and the time you spend online

Set app timers

App timers are available everywhere: android or iphone.

even if you exceed the time limit it just makes you aware of 1the time you are spending in an application .

Here you have different approches:

1. Turn off notification for the apps that distract you the most and set a time for yourself to check it out in your day that goes along for emails.
2. Go to the individual apps and limit notifications at certain times of the day.
3. Either or, the goal generally is limiting notifications because they are the cues if a bad habit

Organising files is really reliefing and important, you should decide what to put where and put folders , sub folders and sub sub folders

Google calender is a fantastic machine to do that.

You can put reminders for the tasks you need to do and put tasks themselves, you can put events to decide the whole day and set routines and regular goals, you should definetly try it out
