Such as memorizing a phone number or write a birthday in our notebook. Send a postcard on someone birthday instead of a Facebook message. There are many ways to implement change. Keep your phone in another room during the night to charge, so you will not be tempted to reach for it first thing in the morning. Open your window instead and breath properly for ten times. Improve yourself!
