Quick, practical one for your feed: your phone is designed like a slot machine — every notification is built to give you a small dopamine hit so you check it again. What's less obvious is that research shows simply having your phone nearby, even silenced, measurably drains your focus. You don't need more willpower to fix this. You need fewer notifications.

When you're the least successful person in the room, that's not a problem. That's the point. You get to appreciate up.
Chapters 9 & 10 of Permission to Unplug are about exactly this — being spontaneous on purpose and choosing environments where growth is unavoidable. Watch the full clip and let me know: what's a room that changed how you think?

You need this.
Book the trip and truly unplug. Explore the world and see who you find. It might just be a new you.
