Stop Wasting Time On Your Smartphone!

 


Around 97% of students are distracted by cell phones.Are you a part of that 97%?

When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe,only then you'll be successful.

Whether your distractions are text messages, checking emails,surfing the web,Playing games or scrolling through social media.The fact remains that it is a distraction.

I'm saying to you today that there's some of you;if you give up your cell phone,you would be successful.But your cell phone is more important to you than your success.

Stop wasting time on your cell phone!

Facebook isn't going anywhere.Instagram will still be here this weekend.

Focus on your dreams,focus on your studies focus on your goals and aspirations.Put the thing down.

Look up! You're missing stuff.What is the long-term effect of too much information?We don't know, but we're finding out.

Focus on becoming a better you.A better you that is not distracted by unnecessary things.

You gotta cut off the cell phone.You got it, NO TV.

There were those of you who were watching the game last night.

You really didn't have no business watching these boys win a national title going to the NBA and making millions.

You didn't have no business watching them.Because you're not where you need to be.

One that is determined to succeed and not scroll,that is determined to prosper and not post,to grow all day and not game all day.

Stop wasting time on your cell phone.

And when you get to the point where all you wanna do is be successful as bad as you wanna breathe then you'll be successful.

It's about you and your future.It's about your grades.It's about your dreams.Ultimately, it's about your life.

The time you spend on your cell phone could be used for your success.

The time you could be using to be successful, you're using on the cell.And the cell phone is not bringing you nothing but a bill.

Is your life more important than that app, then that game, that post?

I need cell phones off!

Some of you are gonna be broke for the rest of your life because that little thing on up on the side.

You're gonna be broke for the rest of your life because of a little cell phone.We're so plugged into our cell phones that we have become blind to the world around us.

Has somebody told you that you couldn't live without it?

We can't take our eyes off the screen long enough to see the beauty of the world around us.


Let me break it down for you like this.You are given 24 hours in one day.Let's be honest, you're going to sleep for about six to eight of those hours.

So that leaves you with about 16 to 18 hours left in your day.

Digital distraction;how many people feel like your mind is so distracted and you can't focus on just one thing anymore?

And the fact that you cannot put it away is because you are addicted.

Right;if you wake up and you check your phone before you say good morning to your girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse,you have an addiction.

And like all addictions, in time it'll destroy relationships,it'll cost time and it'll cost money and it'll make your life worse.


You're in class probably for about 4 to 6 hours per day,That leaves you with about 10 to 12 hours left.


I get it.

You gotta eat a few times that day you might have to get a quick hour nap in.


Now you're left with about 7 to 9 hours remaining in your day.And that's on a good day that you're left with about 7 to 9 hours.On other days you might have even less time.

Don't cry to give up, cry to keep going.Don't cry to quit.You are already in pain,you are already hurt,Get a reward from it.

You can accomplish so much in seven hours.


You can type your mandatory paper in school in less than seven hours.


You can study long enough to pass an exam in less than seven hours.

There are so many things that you can complete within seven hours.that remain in your day.

But for some reason you can't put down your cell phone.long enough to realize you've had your cell phone all day.

Can you put it down?

Are you using it or is it using you?

And where is it leading you?

And I'm not telling you"Oh, I'm against the establishment and all that"

I'm telling you at least ask yourself,"What is the long-term effect of too much information?"

What is it doing to me?

Don't miss what I'm telling you:stop wasting time on your cell phone.

I get it.

You're gonna say "well I don't spend seven hours straight on my cell phone"

but watch this; you might check it up to 60 times per day.And each time you check it you might only spend about four minutes on it at a time.

Well, 60 times four is 240 minutes which equals four hours.

So before you even realize you may have spent four hours on your cell phone throughout the day simply checking it.


Be able at any moment to sacrifice what you are for what you will become.Some of you- you focus until the phone rings.and then you're like I gotta answer it,if I don't answer the phone I'm gonna die.

Now whether you're checking and responding to emails or texts,whether you're surfing the web,whether you're on social media or even checking the weather and traffic.


The fact remains you have just spent four hours doing so.Then you go home,away from work, away from school and spend even longer on your cell phone.


Now listen, I'm not saying that you should never check your cell phone.I'm not saying that it's bad to be on your phone.But what I am saying is,if you are on your phone more than you are being productive with your school or your business,that's a problem.


It's- a lot of people they give...they give away their sovereignty and their power first thing in the morning.

Like the first thing in the morning they'll just, they'll pick up their phone and they'll check everything, you know because there's- the way it's set up, right

They're getting their,their dopamine fixes and its really rewiring their brain.

So it's training them just to be distracted all the time.If you would rather check social media more than school, that's a problem.

If gossip is more important than grades,that's a problem.

If apps are more important than your accomplishments, that's a problem.

If Facebook is more important than your future, that's a problem.

Stop wasting time on your cellphone.I need you to study like you've never studied before.I need you up all night long studying.

Getting about 3-4 hours here,hour and a half here, two hours here,You hear me say this all the time,for some of you this is it.

There is nothing that is more important than you achieving all of the things you want to do in life.

And if you are being too distracted by your cellphone then you've got a problem.

I'm not here to sugarcoat it,I'm not here to ask you nicely.I'm here to tell you stop wasting time on your cell phone.


So here's what I want you to do:make a commitment to yourself right now.Challenge yourself today.That the same amount of time you have been giving to your cell phone will now be spent working on your dreams,your goals,your aspiration,your studies.

Push yourself to succeed just as much as you push those buttons on your phone.

Then and only then,will you be successful in life and in school.

Is there a need for 24 hours a day news?Is there 24 hours a day worth of news?

You have to give it everything you got.

No more TV, no more parties,no more playing!


If you have got more time ,what you need to be doing is studying.

Just get off the phone!

Understanding stress and anxiety,why does it matter?...4 Simple and Easy Tips To Reduce Stress

Image
1. Difference between stress and anxiety,Why Does It Matter? What's the difference between stress,anxiety, and worry? And why does it matter? Most people talk about stress, anxiety and worry interchangeably as if they're the same thing.  For example :  "my test really stressed me out. I was so worried about it."   or  " I'm so worried about this upcoming performance that is making my stomach hurt. "  Now the lack of differentiation between these different aspects of anxiety leads to difficulties in knowing how to resolve the effects of them.So we're first going to talk about the difference and why it matters. Worry: Worry is the thinking part of anxiety. It happens in our frontal lobes,the part of our brain that plans and thinks and uses words, and it has to do with thoughts like; "Is she mad at me?"   or   "what's going to happen at my upcoming performance?" Now we humans have developed this part of our brain for important ...

The Amazing Power Of Mindfulness.7 Techniques To Practice Mindfulness In Everyday Life

Image
Part 1: The Power Of Mindfulness. There is a story, usually attributed to the Native  American tradition, which illuminates different  ways of paying attention.  An elder, talking to  a child, says, I have 2 wolves fighting in my heart.  One wolf is  fearful, vengeful envious, resentful,and deceitful. The other wolf is compassionate, loving, generous, truthful and peaceful. The child asks,"Which wolf will win the fight?" The elder responds,"The one I feed."   That doesn't mean we try to deny, or hurt  or kill the angry wolf. If we did that, we'd end up in a long battle, all the while  somehow making  that wolf more powerful through our  hostility and fear.  Hating that wolf sucks. the strength right out of us. Instead, we calmly  pay attention to the angry wolf, and let  go of believing they have the answers. If we can do that, they end up lying down next  to us, no longer an enemy.  We help strengthen the ...

3 Simple Steps To Beat Procrastination.What Really Happens When You Procrastinate Too Much.

Image
1.How to beat Procrastination:(3 Simple Steps) Let’s be honest, you’re probably procrastinating while reading this blog. And because of this, I’m going to keep this blog as practical and concise as possible. In life, you’re often deciding whether to approach or avoid something.You’re always making a journey towards something or away from something. When you avoid a task, it’s called task aversion or Procrastination . In an eye opening study performed by Allan Blunt and Timothy A. Pychyl, it was found that the reason for task aversion changes based on where we are in a project: In the early planning stages, aversion is often due to a lack of personal meaning. In the action-oriented stages, aversion is often due to a lack of structure. Let’s reuse the journey analogy and assume that you want to go somewhere: Is the final destination worth going to? Does it matter to you if you make it there? If it does, this is a personally meaningful goal. Now, how prepared ...
