THE MISSION!šŸš€
If your children had your phone use habits would you be concerned?
I’m 24 and I think about the world my future children are going to grow up in.
With digital technology becoming more and more ingrained into our lives.
Because a massive factor in my addiction spiralling out of control was due to technology advancing too rapidly.
And my parents and other adults around me, and myself not having the information or tools to be able to guide and put in guardrails in place.
Even at a basic level, normally people couldn’t predict or understand the landscape of consumption as it is today.
Or thinking about the version of you that first picked up a phone, no awareness of what you were about to experience.
But I don’t blame anyone, as I got into my adult life, took responsibility for my behaviour and started making 1 or 2 small changes.
Taking that responsibility doesn't excuse the manipulative design of these platforms. But when you're at rock bottom you need to be able to take a step forward
Looking at the small things you can control.
I don’t want my children and or the next generations growing up to be anxious, confused, distracted, not being able to hold a conversation or a thought.
Or not caring about nature and the world around us because it isn’t optimising for maximum dopamine.
I’m forever grateful that my earlier childhood was protected, and will hold those memories as a reminder for my future vision.
Ultimately, that’s my mission as a young adult who was a part of the last generation to not have to grow up with a phone in hand.
To take lessons from 7 year old me
And get back closer to living ā€œbefore the feedā€.
