Two people admit they check their phones first thing in the morning. Jim Kwik says he doesn't, because notifications and cat videos distract him. He argues for deliberately disconnecting in the morning to reconnect with yourself.
We're gonna check out some daily routines from other people.
I wanna know the very first thing you do. You get out of the bed, you go to the bathroom.
Oh, I don't— no, the first thing I do is look at my phone.
Oh, you look at the phone first? Okay, that's interesting. Yeah. I do that too.
Not everything's for everybody. I know Mark checks his phone. I heard an interview with Gary Vee and he checks his phone. For me, I just don't do it because I feel like I get easily distracted with every ring, ping, ding, like, share, comment, cat video, whatever.
I mean, I definitely check my phone for 2 minutes maybe in the morning just to make sure I don't have any Yeah. Then I walk my dog.
I think it's important to disconnect to be able to reconnect.
