Dean Graziosi deletes Instagram from his phone between posts because scrolling always makes him feel worse. He reinstalls it only for the 20 seconds needed to post or reply, then deletes it again. It's a way to stop pretending the app isn't harmful.
I never finish a 20-minute scroll of Instagram feeling better in life. Not once. So I said, fine, I'm gonna have Instagram deleted from my phone because I can't trust myself. If it's there, I'm gonna go on it. I knew that. I recognized that. Think of it this way. I'm like, when I am honest with myself about how pathetic I am in certain areas, that's really helpful. So it's like, if that's true, let me stop pretending it's not. It's— it can't be on my phone. But what I can do is take the 20 seconds it takes to read down download it when I need to post something or when I need to get back to a friend of mine. But other than that, it's not there because I know that it will— I will go to it and it will make me feel bad.
