Digital Minimalism: How to Take Back Your Attention

The Attention Economy

Every app on your phone is designed by teams of engineers to keep you scrolling. Your attention is the product being sold to advertisers.

What Is Digital Minimalism?

Coined by Cal Newport, digital minimalism is the practice of intentionally limiting your digital tools to those that genuinely serve your values.

Practical Steps

• Delete social media apps from your phone (use desktop only).
• Turn off all non-essential notifications.
• Designate phone-free times: meals, first hour of morning.
