A quick-fix to curb your smartphone addiction!

The farther you stay away from it, the less likely you are to pick it up.

The longer you stay away from it, the lesser time it takes for you to finish your tasks.

The lower the number of times you unlock the phone, the better your attention span gets.

Install an app for tracking the time of your overall daily phone usage and the number of times you unlock it.

The reason to track the time of usage is pretty obvious. However, why should you count the number of times you unlock your smartphones?

That is because, every time you come TO your phone, your attention gets OFF from any other task on which you must be paying attention.

This frequent attention-switching reduces the base level of your attention span over a period of time. That’s why, it is advisable to track the number of times you unlock your phone and keep it lesser than 30 times a day.

I repeat again,

• The farther you stay away from it, the less likely you are to pick it up.

• The longer you stay away from it, the lesser time it takes for you to finish your tasks.

• The lower the number of times you unlock the phone, the better your attention span gets.

So, the mantra is: Farther, Longer, Lower!
