You’re in the zone, totally focused on crushing your workout. Buzz! It’s your phone. Do you stop everything to answer? Nope. You keep going. Why? Because you’re in control.
See, you’re not just taking a break whenever you drop everything for a call, text, or notification. You are disrupting your momentum. It takes time and effort to get back into the zone. You’re more productive and less stressed by letting some interruptions get put off until later.
Here’s the deal: your time is valuable. Not every call, text, or notification is urgent. Some can wait. So next time your phone buzzes, ask yourself: “Is this interruption worth it?” If the answer is “no,” handle it later. You’ll thank yourself for it.
Now it’s your turn: Choose a specific time of day when you’ll completely disconnect from your phone. No calls, no texts, no notifications. See how it feels to be fully present and focused. You might be surprised at how much you can accomplish.
