I attempted to document how many times I reach for my phone in a day this past weekend. Needless to say I failed miserably.

My notes are as follows:

* 6:41 pm Start.
I am at work.

* Received a text, replied, almost got on Facebook immediately after but I stopped myself. Currently trying to do homework.

* 6:45
Checked the time

* 6:49
Checked again

* 6:55
Spent about nine minutes on social media

After that I got so bored at work (I work at a hotel with a lot of down time) that I just scrolled through Facebook and Instagram for almost an hour, back and forth between the two. I got so distracted I forgot to keep track of everything. I have failed myself. But look at how many times I check my phone out of boredom. I can't be bored for more than five minutes without reaching for my phone. It's crazy how much time I wasted being so unproductive. Damn it. This habit is gonna be a hard one to break.
