To be honest, since I have come back from my vacation to Italy I have slipped a bit in terms of screen time. For my day job, I have needed to download TikTok and Instagram again for marketing stuff and so it sits on my phone now. Most of the time I have the self-discipline to not open it, but I slip up here and there. I tell myself "just a few minutes, I'll just check what my girlfriend has sent me." Those few minutes quickly get derailed and I feel like a need to physically pull my face away from my screen. This morning, I got back to my normal schedule of leaving my phone in the other room while I make breakfast. It was absolutely amazing. For about an hour in the morning, I was completely unbothered as I got ready for work, cooked and ate my breakfast. I don't think I had any groundbreaking realizations, but I reflected on my dream and the weekend ahead of me. It was a great reminder on how addicting your phone can be, as well as how peaceful it is to be off of it.
