Ditching my cell phone – Day 1
Probably not for everyone, but I am going to live without a cell phone for the foreseeable future. I'm not talking about just leaving it at home, I'm talking about not having a cell phone at all. I've already noticed a nice work productivity boost. Perhaps one less interruption during my work day is going to pay dividends. I'm not sure how many minutes I am going to gain from this strategy, perhaps 20 minutes or more, but more importantly, I think it reduces the overhead caused by task-switching. I may get a VOIP line for home, not sure right now. Wife and kids have phones, so there's that.
