I mean, walking the streets of New York, I can't tell you how many people just have their smartphone out.

And then occasionally they bump into you or someone.

And you know, you know, I mean, heck, even when I'm driving the streets of New York, have I seen someone just like walk into traffic where the sword broke up?

Completely.

So that's an addictive behavior that I'm going to suggest could have very negative effects for, for, um, you know, some of those pedestrians.

Yeah, first, we've all been there.

And I think most people know that the most constructive thing you can do is take one action in the direction that you want.

So if you're looking at your behaviors day to day, it could be, okay, I can't do all this, but I'm going to say one hour without my phone before I go to bed.

If you decide to go bigger with Noble Mobile, I'll give you just my real life experience.

So I joined Noble Mobile and then I blew through the data cap in month one and it was like, okay, that wasn't great.

And then a couple months in, I actually got some cash back and then got a little excited.

And then I said to myself, because I'm a goal oriented fellow was like, Oh, let me just try and do better than that the next month.

And then the next month, I did not do better because I was very busy that month.

But then the month after that I did.

Um, so just having measurements and goals and positive reinforcement, uh, does make you more mindful, but the first thing to do is just take a concrete step that you can actually stick to.

And for me, that was look, I don't know what I'm going to do the other 23 hours, but the hour before I go to bed, I'm not going to have this thing with me.

Uh, and then what I did is I actually started reading a book and the science says that if you read a book, it helps you sleep better and you might even learn a thing or two.

One big mental switch for me, Rich, was realizing it is an important thing for all of us.

Just about everything can wait for 45 to 60 minutes.

Like you do not need to be instantly reactive to every message.
