I’m listening to an audio book at the moment. Thrive
I’m still trying to figure out my groove with these audio books but while that’s happening, I keep a notebook on the seat next to me in the car and jot down a few keywords that will hopefully help me to remember what I was thinking afterwards when I try to blog about it.
I said hopefully because the other day I looked in my work notebook and I had absolutely no idea what my own notes meant 😮
In talking about being addicted to our phones, she mentioned a new thing which I think is a fabulous idea.
Apparently when a group of people get together for supper/ lunch/ whatever, everyone tosses their phone onto the middle of the table. The first one who grabs their phone to do anything – take a call, send a message, take a photo, etc – has to pick up the bill for the whole table.
Fabulous idea to keep focussed on connecting with friends or family, and not on the devices.
I often forget to take out my phone because of too much talking but I’ve got to confess – if the light is perfect and the food looks photogenic, I’m usually the one taking a picture. I won’t post it to Instagram right there and then (unless the friend I’m with goes to the bathroom), and sometimes not ever, but light + pretty = photo 🙂
Still, I really don’t like wasting money so if my friends and I agreed on rules like this, I’m sure I wouldn’t grab my phone.
What about you?
Would you be picking up the bill?
PS There are only 24 hours left til the pay what you want sale is over.
