  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Disconnect from Email
    Notice how much time you were spending checking email away from work and make note of that. Now that you have stepped away from it and have not been checking, what changes are you noticing in your thoughts, use of time, stress and energy levels?

    This one was difficult for me because I have to monitor email and social media constantly for my jobs. I made a point of setting my phone aside and taking longer breaks between checking outside of work hours and noticed how much more engaged I was with friends and other work, and how much less anxiety I had!
