Go camping for 1 night and go screen-free. Or just go somewhere without TV/smartphone/internet/smartwatch (you have to really disconnect)
You'll magically find that your brain works just like you remember within a very short period of hours.
Sadly, even knowing the detriment to my life, it is still extremely hard for me to stay away from smartphones and note others seem to have the same issue.
- more_corn 1y agoGood idea. Ironically I’m getting it from a screen.
- leakycap 1y agoIt's wild to remember we sleep under a blanket of stars every night and could have S'mores whenever we want... but most of us rarely spend a moment out there away from our smartphones and smartwatches. I'm not going screenless in life, but there has to be an ebb and flow.
- whatamidoingyo 1y agoI had a similar idea, but without the camping. Just really want to set a day (probably Sunday) where I don't look at a screen at any point during the day. Just books, magazines, and my own brain. Thinking about it, I think I looked at a screen multiple times every single day for the last ~15 years. Maybe longer.
