I make my comeback, starting from today. My primary goal is 9pm as before, but I may allow 9:30 occasionally.
Nice to see this thread at 23 pages. It gives me an idea for a part of my regimen, I could stand to not even read before bed since I stare at a screen at the office all day, so I figure audiobooks on the black and white kindle. It's a screen but different, and the majority of the time I won't be looking at it. I'd like to be able to pause it to make mental notes (so no device input) otherwise I could just not look at it at all, but chances are if it's worth listening to it's worth taking note, even if it is all internal in my mind. And if that works, I'm starting right now at 9:30.
I'm in. Tonight my phone gets blocked at 8:00 pm. My password to my computer is long and in an email. Phone gets blocked, I have no access to screens. I will read or practice music instead. Day 0.
What a nice twist of the challenge! I say go for it. I usually listen to audiobooks before bedtime as well as I use my computer all the time at work.
Thanks. I don't know why I did that. I've been quite some time in this challenge and have seen how beneficial it is.
Yesterday was night 2 of ??? (don't know why I would ever stop) and I didn't listen to the audiobook because I was on the forum until the last minute.
The reason to set a number of days to complete is not to stop afterwards, it’s a way for you to measure your success and to get you a little cerotonine kick. Once you complete the desired number of days, feel free to extend your goal to a longer one.
