Chat With Friends More Often by Telling Them That You Are on a Smartphone Diet
Constantly checking your phone while talking to people is not only rude, but also interferes with being around your wonderful friends. To break a bad habit, consider enlisting the support of your friends by telling them you are on a smartphone diet.
While my friends are terribly helpful to me on a real diet, they are very enthusiastic about the idea of holding me accountable for overusing my iPhone, especially in their presence. This tactic, combined with scheduling no-phone activities such as a manicure, movie night, or dinner at a fancy restaurant, can help you keep one gift and keep in touch with the people in front of you, which is far more rewarding than checking your Instagram likes.
