RESET YOUR HABITS

Commit to 16 days. Build a new normal.

You've simplified your device.

You've designated distraction.

Now comes the hard part:

Committing to living differently.

THE RULE
  • Commit to 16 consecutive days.
  • No exceptions.
  • No "just this once."
  • No negotiating.
EXPECT RESISTANCE
  • The first few days will feel uncomfortable.
  • You'll reach for your phone.
  • You'll feel bored.
  • You'll wonder what you're missing.
  • You'll rarely leave your designated area.
  • That's normal.
  • You're noticing habits that were previously invisible.
REPLACE, DON'T REMOVE

Don't focus on what you're giving up.
Focus on what you're getting back.

Use the time for: Family, friends, excercise, art, reading, walking, writing, building.

PAY ATTENTION

Notice:

  • How often you reach for your phone
  • How often you feel bored
  • How often you feel more present during conversations.
  • How often you look up and notice.
  • How often new ideas are now appearing.
DAY 16

At the end of 16 days, ask yourself:

  • What changed?
  • Keep what worked.
  • Leave what didn't.
  • Build your own version from there.
