The powering of switching off 📴
The last couple of days I’ve taken the time to come away from my phone,
I purposefully didn’t buy an ESIM for my trip to Naples with B, because I wanted to actually have some time off for my birthday.
And I can’t tell you how much better I feel for it.
Not constantly checking out the latest on instagram, not checking Arsenal’s most recent transfers on X and certainly not playing my addictive games I’ve got downloaded!
Taking some time away from the screen.
Being in the moment.
Enjoying some VERY good food,
Having a lot of conversations with B,
Taking in the sights and sounds of Naples.
And the only time on my phone was the take a picture or pay!
It’s quite sad how much we, myself included, rely on our phones, I know I need it for my job, but I definitely could do with cutting out my screen time.
It’s one thing I preach to my team, but one thing I don’t do well enough myself.
So time for a change for myself,
Time to be a little bit more selfish because
Life is so much more beautiful when you look up.
