In this topic of procrastination, I feel that screen time on our phones plays a major role on that. Thankfully, Apple has already provided a user setting to help keep you accountable! Introducing, the screen time setting.

The screen time setting (available only for Apple iPhone users) is one technique to help you lessen screen time. This utility comes with controlling which apps that you spend the most time on- and you get to choose the screen time limit on it. If you exceed the screen time limit on the app (while you’re using it), it will lock you out and you are unable to use it for the rest of the day. It helps you manage time wisely and help you regain focus on everyday tasks.

My experience using this utility really did help me realize the time and recognize the urgency of getting everyday tasks done. Have an accountability partner to choose the password so that you won’t know it.
