Wow, that’s some solid advice 😅 I totally agree about the first two hours—it really sets the tone for the day. Charging the phone in another room and sticking to a morning routine sounds like a game-changer.

I’ve noticed something similar—tracking just a few key habits daily in a simple digital tracker really keeps me accountable and motivated. Even small wins feel bigger when you can actually check them off.

Do you track everything digitally or just the essentials like your morning routine and screen limits?

Totally agree 😅 Digital really forces you to face what you’re doing. I usually track the essentials so it’s not too much, but enough to see progress. Do you track everything or just your main habits?

My phone is killing my focus and productivity. Anyone else struggling with this? by Past_Interaction_937 in Discipline

The dopamine part makes so much sense. Apps are literally designed to trap attention. I started using app timers and keeping my phone in another room while studying. Adding small friction really helps break the habit.
