Put your cellphone down!
Every time I pick up my phone, I hand over a piece of my attention.
A few seconds here. A minute there. It adds up to hours.
And for what? Noise. Distraction. The illusion of being busy.
The phone keeps me comfortable. Numb. Reactive.
But comfort never built anything worth a damn.
So I put it down.
And when I do—I *feel* the silence. The pull to check. The twitch.
But past that itch is clarity. Action. Real work.
The phone doesn’t own me. Not today.
