    In a world where we’re always on, always attuned to the constant buzz of notifications and glued to the never ending scroll, it’s no wonder that overstimulation and burnout are on the rise. Globally, people have an of average 6 hours 58 minutes of screen time per day (according to the Average Screen Time Stats 2023) and when you look at an entire week that’s over 46hrs, almost two whole days a week, spent on devices - which is pretty mind blowing. But what kind of impact is this time spent on the digital hamster wheel having on our focus, motivation and overall health? How do we block out the noise and focus on what really matters to be happier and healthier people. Today I’m joined by Hector Hughes. Hector is the co-founder of Unplugged who provide digital detoxes at minimalist, off-grid cabins in nature across the UK to help the always-on, switch off. In the episode, we’ll talk about how Hector started his business after overcoming burnout, all things digital detox and how important it is to unplug in our increasingly digital dependent world, what the consequences are if we don’t and a few hacks for developing a healthier relationship with tech. Enjoy!

    How to feel excited? Consider life of a disabled person, consider someone in third world with medical and real issues. Enjoy the moment - the food, sun, gym, reading etc.

    The stock market's dividends motivated me to start investing. Living off dividends without selling provides extra income and a financial legacy for your children. I've invested over $600k in dividend stocks over the years and continue buying more, anticipating price drops. 📈

      @petersonjen I couldn't agree more! Having an investment coach is invaluable, given their expertise, education, and risk management abilities. They act as a safety net, reducing the chances of underperformance and potential losses. Personally, working with a financial coach has led to significant gains, almost $1.5 million in my case!
