In order to be at your best each day, you need to take time to refocus and seek God. Rather than jumping straight into your daily routine, why not spend a few quiet minutes with God to help you gain perspective and peace?
I read a report recently that said that 80 percent of smartphone users check their phones before brushing their teeth, so even if you get out of bed before you check yours, there’s a good chance that you know what I’m talking about. And even if you aren’t jumping on social media the minute your day starts, it’s pretty likely that you’re throwing yourself right into the world in some other way—rushing the kids off to school, turning on the television to watch the news or some talk show, jumping back into the work you were doing before you went to bed. Does any of this sound like you?
Well, obviously you’re not alone, but there’s a problem with doing this to yourself. . . . Think about it another way: How willing would you be to pick your head up from your pillow and immediately start a conversation with a thousand people? You know, just get out of bed, walk into the next room, and have a thousand people there saying stuff at you and expecting you to respond. That would be insane, right? But that’s effectively what you’re doing when you jump onto social media first thing. You dive into a conversation with a thousand people, you get all kinds of information, at least some of that information is going to be negative, and you find yourself being drained before you’ve even brushed your teeth. . . .
Get into the habit of disconnecting often and regularly. If you’re like me and a whole lot of other people in the world, you feel like you’re supposed to be available all the time because you can be. Your phone always needs to be nearby, and all of your notifications need to be turned on. If the world wants to touch you, you think it should always be able to. Get over that. Be selfish for 5 percent of your day and disconnect completely from the outside world. Anyone who really needs you can get you during the other 95 percent of the time, and just stepping away for a while is extremely important not just for yourself but for those who need you to be the best you.
