Avoiding your phone upon waking and organizing your morning is the first thing you should do. Diving into notifications within minutes of waking blocks the energy boost built up overnight, when the brain regenerates its resources. Then, making your bed, brushing your teeth, or taking a cold shower sends a clear signal to your brain: “I’m taking control of my day.” And, to limit unnecessary dopamine rushes, TJ Power recommends intermittent phone-free time: reserving periods throughout the day without your phone and scheduling specific times to check social media. He only allows himself three time slots: 10:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., and 8:00 p.m., appointments he looks forward to.
