A colleague once shared a story about how he was running late for a meeting and rushed out of his apartment, only to realize halfway there that he had forgotten his phone. Instead of turning back, he decided to go on without it, thinking he could manage for a few hours.

As the day went on, he found himself feeling unexpectedly calm, disconnected from constant notifications and distractions. It was a reminder of how much he had become attached to his phone, and by the end of the day, he appreciated the accidental break.
