Martin's Blog7-Day Dopamine Detox Plan: Regain Control of Your Life
Eliminate all entertainment apps and activities that provide easy pleasure, such as scrolling short videos, listening to music (listening to music during high-intensity mental tasks is actually seeking a safe haven to escape from mental labor), browsing Weibo, chatting on QQ and WeChat, and other such entertainment activities.
Normally, when people have free time or are resting, they often end up scrolling videos or playing games, and just like that, time slips away unnoticed, leading to procrastination on the “real tasks” that should have been done afterward.
However, after quitting these activities, during free time or rest, people will proactively seek things to do, or tackle those tasks that should have been done but have been put off indefinitely.
As a result, the amount of time available in a day will greatly increase; the time previously spent on mobile entertainment will be redirected to more meaningful pursuits, leaving more usable time overall and boosting efficiency in getting things done.
