Your phone should provide as little distraction as possible

Your phone should provide as little distraction as possible. A few systems to help you stop a phone addiction:

  • Don't look at your screen immediately after waking up. Use an analog alarm and keep your phone on the other side of the room.
  • Turn off notifications for all social media apps
  • Delete unnecessary apps that you are not using.
  • Stop keeping your phone next to you while sleeping, eating, showering, or working.
  • Use a habit tracker on your desktop to stay on track with all these steps.
