Boundaries for smartphone use

- That smartphone you hold in your hand is powerful. Using this little device, you can work from anywhere. You can connect with anyone. You can find almost any kind of entertainment with a few taps of your finger, and we do tap, thousands of times per day. With great power comes great distractibility. When phones dominate our attention, they can destroy focus, increase stress, and strangely make us less productive. Hi, I'm Dave Crenshaw and in years of working with organizations of every size, from Fortune 500 companies to freelancers, I've found that getting the most from your smartphone is more than just knowing how to use it, it's also setting boundaries for when and how you use it.
