- Ask yourself: Am I being intentional with my technology use? Is my use aligned with my personal values?
- Simple and enjoyable exercises like nature walks without phones and rediscovering neglected leisure activities can help you re-learn how to focus
- "What you give attention to will shape your life."
- Prioritize attention and intentionality in daily choices to find more joy in your journey.
