Free Quarterly Reflection & Planning Occasion in German.
This Wednesday, 2025-03-26.
8:15 PM.
We’ll mirror on 2025 thus far, alter course, and plan for upcoming months.
Now to in the present day’s publication.
We’re spending our lives watching screens.
However there are two basically various kinds of screens.
Understanding the distinction modified how I strategy digital life.
CONSUMPTION SCREENS
These are those that feed you.
Social media, information websites, video platforms, and limitless streams of content material.
They’re designed to drag you in and preserve you engaged.
They earn a living if you preserve scrolling.
They make use of hundreds of engineers who optimize in your continued consideration.
They’re constructed to be addictive.
I seen how I felt after utilizing these screens:
- scattered,
- anxious,
- unhappy.
CREATION SCREENS
These are those you feed.
Textual content editors, programming environments, design instruments.
Empty canvases ready in your enter.
They’re designed for manufacturing, not consumption.
They do not revenue out of your extended consideration.
They serve your objectives, not theirs.
I seen how I felt after utilizing these screens:
- centered,
- completed,
- energized.
THE RATIO
Most individuals spend 90% of their display screen time consuming and 10% creating.
I intentionally reversed this ratio.
I now spend most of my display screen time making issues.
I restrict consumption to particular occasions, with clear boundaries.
Every morning, I open a textual content editor earlier than any browser or app.
I create earlier than I devour.
This straightforward change has dramatically elevated my output and satisfaction.
The web turns into a instrument as an alternative of a lure.
Your display screen time does not have to lower.
It simply must flip route.
Have an excellent week,
Lukas
