a story about phone use (i was addicted)

Has anyone ever told you that you use your phone too much? I have. Multiple times. But what does that question really means? What does it entail? Do I have a phone addiction? There's no right or wrong answer and quite honestly, the answer will be different from person to person depending on who it affects and how it affects those around them. This video is about a story that happened in the past 6 months that gave meaning and answer to those questions in my life.

Just two disclaimers:

1. Reading is a way for me to break my phone addiction and is not by any means an alternative to spending time with Milo or my wife. The difference between the two is that for me, it is much easier to put a book down versus putting my phone down. By addressing the underlying problem and cutting off opportunities for failure, I am able to put my priorities in order which is my family.

2. The book I showed in this video was actually my own copy of Atomic Habits by James Clear. I did borrow this book from the library back in Fall 2023 after being on the waitlist for weeks. Midway through the book, I found a used copy at a local thrift store and purchased it for myself. I wanted to bring the audience back to that moment because it was a key building block of this story.

Happy watching!
