Hang up your Phone PERMANENTLY

This is the first and quite possibly the least well received post - I want you to ditch your cell phone!

If you currently are addicted to your phone, you may want to try a trial period where you take the battery out of your phone for a day and if you must, still carry the battery-less phone around with you.

So many people feel that they NEED their cell phone to be connected, but fail to recognize what a cell phone is.

Cell phones are machines engineered to interrupt you.

Many people feel the interruptions make them important, but in reality you can't be a jet setter if anyone can have direct access to your time.

Protect your time from interruption and ditch the phone, even if it is only for one day a week. You will find that you get more done, enjoy what you are doing more, and will have increased concentration - but you will only have these benefits if you get past the initial withdrawal phase and get back to living a life without interruption.

If you truly are worried about missing an important call - Turn off your phone and set 3 times in the day that you will turn it on to check your messages.

As long as you have a cell phone you are at the mercy of anyone who has your number!

Happy Cutting!
