The Things That Made Me Quit Mobile Game

Image
I once struggled to get a mobile game away from myself. I tried several things to stop playing the mobile game and eventually made it somehow. I had tried and managed to spend less time on my smartphone before, but quitting a mobile game was a different kind of challenge. (If you're interested, see this post about how I reduced my smartphone time .) In this post, I will tell you what kind of attempts I made and what really made me quit the mobile game.

You use your smartphone for long hours every day. Sometimes, you use them effectively to solve daily issues efficiently. But in other cases, you may use them as a mere way of distraction. Come to think of me, I struggled to spend fewer hours on my smartphone. I wanted to spend less time being distracted by my smartphone.

There were many things to learn, so I'd like to write what I learned from Better Than Before  in this post. Photo by Estée Janssen...
