5 Effective Ways To Break Phone Addiction by JARUSHUB: 12:40pm On Jul 10, 2017 |
An addiction is basically when a thing begins to control your life and interferes with your daily activities, work and relationships. When your phone starts to do that to you, it has become an addiction you need to immediately break. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 5 effective ways to break a phone addiction. The First Few Minutes of Your Day The first way to break a phone addiction is to dedicate the first 10 to 30 minutes of your day, at least, to planning and creating a good start to your day, rather than unlocking your phone to browse various internet or social media platforms. Create No-Phone Periods You have to be strict with this one because this can significantly decrease your productivity and efficiency once you are unable to carry it out. If you find yourself constantly being distracted by your phone, it is necessary to create a no-phone period, where for a specific number of minutes or hours you close off your phone and stay completely dedicated to your work. Don’t Lose Sleep Over Your Phone Set limits. You should never allow your phone deprive you of your sleep. Be disciplined and set limits. The moment you stop putting energy into caring for your basic needs and start putting all your time and energy into your phone, you are allowing your phone dictate your health and well-being. Please stop that, your phone is not worth your health. Customize Your Notifications The fact is the lesser notifications you receive, the less likely you are to get distracted by your smartphone and constantly check your smartphone. Therefore, customize your smartphone notifications by turning off notifications for the apps that distract you the most. Work on Building Real Life Relationships Rather than spending hours building virtual relationships, try to get real and work to develop real world relationships. Real world relationships are more physically and emotionally gratifying than virtual relationships, so try to move your relationships with people from your phone to a real world platform. Instead of chatting, try to meet up somewhere next time (but be careful with this however and take this step with people you are without a doubt sure you can trust. The key phrase here is ‘without a doubt’.) source: http://www.opinions.ng/5-effective-ways-break-phone-addiction/ 8 Likes 1 Share

Some people live and conduct 90% of their businesses from their phones (good to also note our smart phones are more or less our Desktop Computers now). Virtual reality is the new reality. The earlier you accept this subtle fact, the better going forward -- this is where our world is headed. The only thing worth pondering over, are the health implications. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Phones addiction has taken alot of people into their graves. Broken marriages and those who can't seem to pass exams. Countless havoc it has caused. Once I get home each day, my phone is off from 7pm. Put in on again 7am in the morning. Some Nigerians have 2 phones. Some 3. Only in 9ja. No where in the world will you meet people carrying so many phones around. A word is enough for the wise. |
