Stanford paid 35,000 people to quit Facebook and Instagram for 6 weeks
Depression dropped. Anxiety dropped. Happiness went up. Women under 25 on Instagram saw the biggest gains
That was 6 weeks. I'm going a full year.
Focus Modes: Schedule 'Wall-to-Wall' focus for your core hours.
Work from 9-11? Social apps are GONE. No willpower needed. #Focus#Productivity#Scrollless
The 'Infinite Scroll' was invented to remove your stopping cues.
Scrollless brings them back. When your 15 mins are up, the door closes. Period. #Focus#Scrollless
The 'Goldfish Effect' is a myth. Goldfish have a 9-second attention span. Humans are now at 8 seconds.
We are officially losing to the fish. Fight back with Scrollless.

A 90-minute focus block is a 'career cheat code.' It's how you do in 2 hours what takes everyone else 8.
Lock the distractions. Use Scrollless. #DeepWork#Scrollless
Being 'busy' is often just a socially acceptable way of saying you're too distracted to do what actually matters.
Stop the busy-work. Start the deep-work. #Focus#Scrollless
Professional output = (Time Spent) x (Intensity of Focus).
If Intensity is 0 because you're checking Twitter every 4 mins, your output is 0. Do the math. #DeepWork#Scrollless
Checking your phone to see what time it is, and then putting it down 20 minutes later still not knowing the time, is the ultimate modern struggle.
Stop the reflex. #ScreenTime#Scrollless
If it doesn't need to be answered in the next 10 minutes, it's not an emergency. It's just a notification.
Chill. Put the phone down.

Social media: 'Stay connected.'
Also social media: Makes you feel lonely, insecure, and disconnected from the person sitting across the table from you.
Reconnect with reality. #DigitalWellness#Scrollless
Screen time limits aren't for kids. They're for the adult children we've become who can't eat a sandwich without watching 4 strangers argue about politics.
Get help. (The app is free).
#DigitalWellness#Scrollless
Your phone is a slot machine in your pocket. The only difference is you're playing with your TIME, not your money.
Stop losing. Set a limit.

24 hours without social media is either a 'digital detox' or the start of a very productive panic attack for most people.
Try the detox first. #DigitalDetox#Scrollless
Checking your phone in bed is a $100 Billion decision. You're trading your most valuable hour for an algorithm's bottom line.
Wake up to YOUR life. #MorningRoutine#Scrollless
Social media is the only food that makes you hungrier and less satisfied the more you eat.
Log out. Eat a real meal instead.

Waiting for a bus used to be for thinking. Now it's for 15-second outrage loops.
Bring back the thinking. Keep your phone in your pocket.
