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.
