Hey
Have you ever really asked yourself, “Is my mind okay?”
I don’t mean mental health or psychology.
I mean: imagine your mind as a living person.
Ask it, “Are you okay? Are you healthy?”
Take a moment. Be honest.
Do you feel exhausted before your day even ends?
Do you get tired after just a few hours of work?
Do you reach for social media for a quick hit of dopamine?
Do you say yes to everything, even when your soul screams no?
Do you rest enough but wake up still tired?
Do you rush through tasks, caring more about finishing than the quality of what you do?
Can you focus on a single 27-minute YouTube video, or do you constantly jump to the next distraction?
Are you obsessed with being successful fast, always chasing something just out of reach?
Do you pick up your phone while someone talks to you?
Do you scroll mindlessly on the bus, the train, or the coffee shop?
Do you wake up like you didn’t sleep at all, even after nine hours?
Do you feel trapped, suffocated, bored by the world around you?
If most of your answers are yes, wake up.
Your mind is screaming.
You are hurting it—every single day.
And the culprit? One thing: your phone.
Every hour you spend scrolling, mindlessly consuming, is an hour your mind is dying a little.
Your attention span is shrinking.
Your joy is vanishing.
Your ability to focus is disappearing.
You’ve trapped your mind in a cage you call convenience.
So here’s my challenge:
Try one month without your phone.
Yes. Thirty days.
Do you have the courage to face your mind without distractions?
If you do, your life will transform.
You’ll feel clearer, lighter, alive.
You’ll rediscover joy in slow, ordinary moments.
Social media will lose its hold over you.
Short content will no longer captivate you.
You’ll engage deeply with people, not just screens.
Your attention span will grow.
You can finally enjoy a 30-minute video or a real conversation.
You’ll enjoy life at a natural pace, without rushing, without forcing.
Replace five hours of scrolling with thirty minutes reading a novel and thirty minutes reading a life-changing book on any topic.
Your mind will thank you.
Your focus will sharpen.
Your motivation will come from within, not a playlist or a dopamine hit.
Respect your brain. Protect it.
If you don’t, you will destroy the life God gave you—sooner or later.
I stopped using my phone seven months ago.
I can’t describe the clarity, joy, and gratitude I feel.
The small things now feel monumental.
I see the world through a lens of presence and awareness.
The real rat race isn’t the 9-to-5.
The real rat race is being trapped in the loop of mindless scrolling.
Everywhere you go—coffee shops, buses, trains, gyms—people are glued to screens.
And there you stand. Free. Awake. Seeing life clearly.
Ask yourself again:
Is your mind okay, or are you slowly killing it?
Take care of it. Protect it.
Or one day, it will betray you.
Thank you for reading :)
