So my new thing is I don't use my phone on Mondays. I turn it off Sunday night and back on Tuesday. I don't even know if I spend more time on my phone than the average person, but it feels like it just drags me in, takes up so much of my fucking thoughts...
Imagine trying to kick not just one, but two addictions at once. In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle dives into his journey of sobriety while also tackling a modern-day struggle—technology addiction. Boyle, known for his sharp wit and candid storytelling, shares his latest challenge: not using his phone on Mondays.
He talks about how this simple change has given him an extra hour and a half each day, making him reflect on how much time social media and instant gratification have been consuming his thoughts. Boyle's reflections are both humorous and thought-provoking as he navigates the complexities of staying sober while dealing with the constant lure of technology. He even shares his plan to switch to a basic Nokia phone that only allows calls and text messages.
This episode isn't just about giving up alcohol; it's about reclaiming control over one's life in multiple ways. Listeners will find Boyle's honesty refreshing as he discusses the challenges and small victories that come with making these changes. His journey is a testament to the power of self-care, healthy habits, and the ongoing transformation of mind and soul.
Whether you're struggling with addiction or just looking for a bit of inspiration to make positive changes in your own life, this episode offers a relatable and encouraging listen.
