If so, that's a good week and I feel abundant.

Otherwise, it's not, which is very different than, did I have whole days where I had nothing to do?

Did I have something or not in the evening?

And correct me if I'm wrong, but what you're saying is when you switch to that mindset,

of am I putting interesting stuff into my week, a good variety, you just feel really different about your relationship with your time and your week.

Like you don't feel like make me feel better about this.

You're not going to feel as stressed.

You're not going to feel as anxious, right?

That having stuff to do doesn't stress us out.

It's not having control over what we're doing or feeling like there's no time for things that are important.

So is it,

Not that it's that simple, but we really can feel different about our time without having to do a major overhaul of our career and our lifestyles.

Just give us our reassurance, Laura.

This is possible.

I mean, I bet people will use their phones less once they're following this.

Just based on my experience with this is once you have more things in your schedule that are intentional, your life is more interesting.

And then the allure of what's happening on that device is less.

And I'm assuming once someone goes through this practice of being more intentional about their time that they find, oh –

I really haven't been that attracted to Instagram or TikTok recently because I have a lot of things on my calendar, scheduled things for myself, and this walk is coming up and I'm going to listen to Mozart, I'm going to do this or that, and that's feeling great.

I don't have a lot of time left where I have nothing to do and I get dragged into the phone.
