E15: Don't let your phone rule your life

29m · Your Uncommon Life · 11 Feb 17:00

Do you carry your phone with you everywhere? Phones can be helpful and necessary but many of us are addicted to them, treating them more like security blankets than the tools that they are. We let them interrupt us constantly and take us away from our priorities. Today we will discuss how to break the screen addiction so we can bring focus back to what matters most to us.

In today’s episode:

Why phones are so disruptive

Set boundaries with your phone

Behavioral shifts to break the phone addiction

How to balance necessary screen time with unnecessary screen time

Life is hard! It’s chaotic and sometimes the ongoing chaos can cause us to feel unwell.

E17: Where is the passion in your life? Pt 1

Have you ever been told to pursue your passions, no matter what? When we make passions our primary pursuit, we often end up chasing a fleeting thing. Before doing so, we need to make sure we are grounded in who we are, content with where we are, and know why we want to pursue our passions. Furthermore, we need to consider if we could become passionate about the opportunities in front of us - where we are already at - before we pursue the next best thing.

In today's episode:

Work shouldn't be your primary source of passion and fulfillment

How does contentment relate to passion?

Understand who you want to become first

Discern your "why's"
