Dear Sunday Sparkers,
Notice the craving.
Notice how much power it has over you.
Notice when you can’t stand regular conversations, and you want to be alone with it.
Notice the eagerness for the new, the funny, the shocking, and the fascinating when you look at it.
Notice how rude using it with others is making you look, but you don’t even care anymore.
Notice how it is stealing your life hours and your life energy, because you don’t have much of either after being with it for a while.
If you think it is your willpower, it is not.
It is a battle, and you are always the loser.
Who is the winner, you ask?
It is them.
The attention managers who are plotting against you.
You don’t even have a chance.
Unless…
Unless you don’t use it as an alarm clock.
Unless you stay apart for the first 30 minutes of the day.
Unless it is literally out of reach while you are working.
Unless it is in the other room when you are with your kids.
Unless it does not live on your nightstand.
Unless it is not the last thing you see before you turn in.
Unless you use tools, rules, and accountability to use it responsibly.
This is how you win.
This is how you don’t miss it.
Your one beautiful life.
