Hi friends, It's time to do your first monthly review of the year, I plan to do it before this weekend. I already set my goals for the month and did a quick monthly planning by writing upcoming appointments and events on February's calendar. If you don't have a monthly calendar, try downloading mine, the download link is the pink one below. |

I thought of something fun to share with you today; my digital life report. However, last week's results were abnormal because I went Live on Instagram once and used my phone way more than usual to share about my workshop. I decided to share a glimpse of the report anyway, so here are my statistics according to my favorite social media management app Appblock: - I spent 20% more on my phone than the week before, daily average 5 Hours 14min, compared to 4 Hours 33 minutes in the previous week.
- My top three apps were Instagram, Whatsapp, and Netflix.
This week I will be mindful about using my phone by setting some rules. - 20 minutes of Netflix phone app.
- 1 hour on Instagram daily as a max (especially on posting days, content creators will get this).
- No whatsapp plans as I think I got it well under control.
Share with me your rules, I would love to know some of them and perhaps I will share them to inspire my social media friends. |

“A realist believes that what is done or left undone in the short run determines the long run.” In other words, if you want to succeed in the long run, you must learn to be consistent day in and day out, week in and week out, year in and year out.” ― John C. Maxwell, The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth |
