Take a full weekend off social media

Friday evening to Monday morning. Apps off the phone, not just unopened.

Willpower loses to a home screen. Deleting the apps for forty-eight hours removes the negotiation entirely; the accounts are all still there on Monday.

The first evening is fidgety. Saturday is noticeably longer. Sunday is the one people remember.

Notice what you reach for instead. That is the actual finding.

How to actually do it

  1. 01Delete the apps on Friday evening, keep the accounts.
  2. 02Tell anyone who might need you another way to reach you.
  3. 03Write one line on Sunday night about what changed.

You already know if this is the one. Go put a date on it.

Send it to whoever came to mind.
