      I always do that, listen in the background when I do my chores or working. It helps me focus on what I needed to do also

    • @cousteaufan
      @cousteaufan Місяць тому +2

      Same here: I do watch some in bed or while waiting for a plane or train. But at least 80% I just listen while driving. UA-cam can be good company on long drives.

    Probably my favorite digital minimalism video. It ended up being really helpful that you only focused on one topic rather than a lot of tips. And elaborating helped it stick all the more. I’m going to really cling to creating over scrolling! Thank you!

  • @corlawesley8993
    @corlawesley8993 Місяць тому +2

    Thank you for this. This helps a lot because I was struggling with limiting my screen time. Some of your videos I watch more than once because I wanted to use that information in my life and wanted to make sure I understood what you were saying. Now instead of figuring out how to listen to everything, I will just listen to what I need. Thank you again.

  • @kjw79
    @kjw79 Місяць тому +3

    Thanks for the encouragement. I DO know more about 1 thing than 90% of people. I was in the frame of mind that if there is one other person who knows more than me, it’s not worth it. I like your attitude better. So I’ll try to start creating more.

  • @lisipilz
    @lisipilz Місяць тому +5

    My why is doing my UA-cam Channel. I just started and the joy of filming and editing keeps me off my phone quite well. Because it is a time consuming hobby and working full-time is I have to stay on top during the free time that I have left. 🙂

  • @terrilynnrowan
    @terrilynnrowan 29 днів тому +2

    I do this thing called "tethering" where I tell myself that my phone must remain plugged in (tethered). So if I want to use it I have to use it in that physical location...which is usually somewhere not super comfortable.
    I am working on using my non-doomscrolling time to create mentorship opportunities in my profession.

    I've just had a couple of weeks of social media detox time. Phone always far away, allowed myself to use it only for what it was originally intended for: communication. Now, one big rule is no social media one hour before I go to sleep, and especially once I'm in bed, no phone whatsoever (it's in another room), but either read a book or do some sketching (I draw and paint watercolour). Same thing after waking up: no phone for quite a while. It makes such a difference! Too much phone makes me feel restless

    • @Annadivine108

    Just took crack book off my phone and tablet this morning. Fortuitously came across your video. My big “why” is learning how to share my passion for native plant / habitat gardening in urban yards. I’m not interested in being a talking face on video. I’d rather blog or do voice overs of short video clips of living things in my gardens.

    Good message. One thing I need to be aware of is thinking I need to keep up with Facebook. I don’t. And most of it is useless ads or stories about the Chicago Bears for same reason. I’m a Packers fan.

    I set time limits on apps on my phone and often think "can I change the playback time to make the video/audio shorter?" I listen to your and some other videos at 1.25 often and the audiobook I'm listening to currently I'm listening to at 1.5. It doesn't have to do with scrolling, but the amount of time I'm spending.

    I am a graphic designer that works from home four days a week and I am on my computer for work literally all day. I use things like Instagram and Facebook as a break from my “work” and then it just continues throughout the day and into the evening once my job is over. It just seems natural to always be online and I can multitask very well, so how do you stop doing something that feels like an important part of your life?

    I don't know what I am good at though? I love music but these days the kind of music I like is very underground but there is not a huge following and I have used udio and soundcloud to become quite good at making underground music but it's not at a professional level because no one help build up my skills at all. I am just doing cybersecurity just for the sake of it so I stay relevant as the previous and current job I am doing (Call Centre) makes me feel stuck and I can't get out because I am glued to the screen all day long and get micromanaged and I don't get paid if I take regular breaks meaning more than the allowable ones I am allowed. What do I do? By the way, I also get paid minimum wage as well.
