I got rid of my smartphone for 3 months
What I learned will shock you…
How I ended up going without a smartphone for 3 months
It was an accident…
It wasn’t planned at all. I tried getting rid of my smartphone for years, I’ve always been someone who enjoys nature. Someone who loves to experience the world through my own eyes, rather than through a screen or someone else’s.
Anyway, back to the story.
I was in the gym, I’d just done a strenuous 3-and-a-half-hour training session. I was training hard on the punchbag, sweat dripping off me like water sliding off an ice-cold can of juice (soda) on a hot summer day.
I must note that my attention span is horrendous.
I was getting my stuff out of my boxing bag, ready to go into the shower; placing my phone in the locker. My mind was on 87 things at once, and I forgot about the 88th thing — my phone.
Consequently, I ended up swiping my phone off the locker with my boxing bag; resulting in my phone smashing into the floor like a hammer hitting a nail.
I nervously gazed down at the rear of my phone case, hesitantly turning it over — discovering that the screen was totally obliterated.
