Made some changes recently in an effort to break up with my phone.
- Analog clock in every room – no excuse that I needed my phone to check the time.
- No phone in the bedroom – found the perfect alarm clock that shows the current and alarm time on the same screen.
- No phone between 7pm and 7am except if the phone rings. I set up this automatic response to all text messages. Now there is no fear of upsetting someone because I didn’t respond immediately.
Taking a break from tech 📱💻 until tomorrow morning. Phone ☎☏📞 calls are welcomed!
Making progress!
Sometimes more stuff isn’t necessarily something bad. Getting a clock, even though our phones are also clocks, helps us to reduce our reliance on our phones.

Exactly! I am slowing finding the “reasons” why I cannot break up with my phone. The clock seemed like a solid reason until I bought small clocks for the various rooms.

I’ll probably need two. 1 for back up just in case the primary alarm clock dies on me. Not very minimalist though 😀

As The Minimalists say, “use things, not people.” Maybe 2 alarm clocks is perfect for you!
