“I Went a Year Without a Phone to Learn How to Use It Without Getting Addicted”
Like an elimination diet, the author reduced his use of technology step by step. First, he stopped using social media, then instant messaging apps. Next, he gave up his phone, and finally, he lived without any technology for a year. During that time, no one could reach him except in person.
Surprisingly, he felt truly connected to people for the first time since he had started using technology. He came to understand why, and with this insight, he gradually reintroduced technology into his life. This allowed him to live with technology like everyone else, while still feeling connected, free, and productive.
