I have a friend who's taken to putting his phone in the backseat when he drives (so he doesn't look at it) or turning it off when his kids are around. I'm just trying to think about what I am doing, and does it deserve my full attention. That question seems to be helping me. We need a support group or something... Brad Candy & Jeannie;

I get bored easily and I'm a HUGE multi-tasker (yes, I've read those studies that say it's not effective, but if I'm not doing at least 3 different things at times I feel lost). I'm so with Dr. Lori.... SQUIRREL! I am trying to make the effort to be more present these days. Oh, I still take my phone out at restaurants and put it on the table (can't hear it in my purse/pocket), but I try to not touch it. Mostly. I'm completely addicted to my handheld phone. It's funny, I use very very few minutes, but data... yeah. This is something I struggle with.

It's challenging. I am super focused when I do it, but still catch myself reacting to a new tweet or blog from you or whatever when maybe I shouldn't. Part of this, I've found, is giving myself permission for these mental breaks throughout the day- make it intentional. Then when it's over, I can move on. BTW - Dr. Lori & I went to nursery school together, and she's always been a smart alec. ;-) Brad – I have been working this muscle, too. It’s challenging.
