phones are a necessity in the modern world.
food and sleep have always been a necessity for human survival.
controlling your phone usage is the same type of differentiator that controlling your diet and sleep routine is for fitness and mental sharpness.

If a flip phone isn't an option, check out our iOS app! ClearSpace inserts a moment of intentionality before each time you try to use social media (we've saved users 10,000 hours and counting)

Phone notifications that stop you from getting hit by a bus? Very Cool.
App that gives you the control to not look at your phone while you walk? Even Cooler.

Okay this is amazing.
Push-ups to unlock time in addictive apps. You can choose your level—I went with 3 pushups per 1 minute 😅

having a billion dollars is difficult to fathom; even the number of 1 billion is hard to fathom. And while it seems like the best type of problem to have, often billionaires treat their money in ways that lead to personal demise.

introduced "traction", that which pulls you toward what you want to do, as a useful opposite of "distraction". mindfulness similarly seems to have a lot to do with intention

How do you stay focused on what matters to you?

may not have been intentional, but I think "being in the present and aware" is a meaningful place to consider what "mindfulness" is at least on some level
