- Every time you feel the urge to check your phone, don’t do it immediately.
- Count to 10 so that your higher self is engaged. Now ask yourself “do I need this to achieve my goals?” The answer can be yes or no, of course.
- You don’t have to avoid using the phone completely. You can answer yes at times if it’s justified. Just be able to intervene between the phone and your intuitive addictive self, and make a conscious decision.
PS: I don't know a solution. Maybe meds, people suggest visiting a doc, but since I'm a professional at distractions I've yet to try it.
