All screens count too. Desktop screen time can be very bad for the body, sitting in one place like that. And we have known for decades that sitting on the couch in front of the tv isn't great either. Also looking at any type of electronic display has negative effects on your vision. Our eyes are made to look around at real world objects.

This video gave me the eye opener I truly needed. My screen time average is currently almost 6 hours. Just hearing that number makes me sick, this experiment you've done is something I think will truly help me. Buying an alarm clock right now!

Those are rookie numbers.

I've lost or haven't had access to my phone for the past two weeks. The changes I've noticed in my patience and attention span are remarkable. I've always struggled with adhd, and have relied on medication to be able to work in the field that I do. I have to work 12-24 shift often. Ever since I stopped using my phone, I haven't needed medication. I've been able to complete reports, focus, and can even socialize much better with the people around me. At the end of a 12 hour shift I don't have the same anxious feeling to go home, but can relax at work and even don't mind the extra hours in money it brings. I actually have purposely started working more and have no anxiety at all about getting off on time. Doing work actually has made the time go by far quicker than just doing absolutely nothing. working is actually preferable to complete boredom, and my production has sky rocketed. I've been able to be more creative and discuss interesting things out of shear boredom because I do not have access to my phone. The only entertainment is what my coworkers and friends can provide me.

I was feeling stressful and lonely these days and years since lockdown. I've found too much phone and always expecting that someone would text me or I might get a new match and all and these expectations put me even in more stress. And I can easily relate to this video that I'm not the only one. Mobile phones and social media are biggest powerhouse of stress. Every 5 minutes, you check your phone if something has got you up and this slow toxicity is growing into a bigger picture. And then I decided that I'll use my laptop to browse youtube, music and all instead of using mobile phone. And I can't tell that I'm feeling more alive and present these days. In the end, if you're not an influencer or celebrity who gets lots of DMs and you're not feeling present and are loner. ---------------Be away from your phones as much as you can.----------------------------

If you ask someone how to enter Heaven, they will most likely say, "Be a good person." Well the Bible says that none is good, no not one. We like to compare ourselves to guys like Hitler and say, "Hey, I'm a pretty good guy compared to him." But when we compare ourselves to God's standard, we realize that the Bible speaks truth when it says that we all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God! When we see this ( our sin in its TRUE light), we see how much trouble we are in and we say, "Well then there's nothing I can do. I'm going to hell for sure then." It's true that there is nothing that WE can do, but there is something that has already been done for you! God sent His One and Only Son to die on a cross as a sacrifice for our sins! So to recieve that eternal sweet sweet forgiveness, all we must do is repent of our sins (meaning to continually turn from them and confess them) and trust alone in Christ as you trust a parachute. If I was to push you out of an airplane, you'd want the parachute for sure! Don't try to flap your arms and save yourself, trust in the parachute!! His finished work on the Cross IS ENOUGH!!! He is the only way to Heaven, He said it Himself!! These other religions teach that we must he good and do good things and then maybe if we've been good enough, we will enter Heaven. But if that is true then we are all doomed to eternal hell because none of us are good. That's why this makes sense. Look at the Ten Commandments, they are written on your heart right now!! I promise that you have violated them. And you might still be doing that today. Therefore God is just to poor out His wrath on you because you deserve it!!!! I do too but Christ died for me anyway so that I can spend eternity in Heaven with Him!!!! Turn to Him today, and He and only He will save your soul! "Verily, verily I say unto you, you must be born again ( to go to Heaven)."✝️

Waking up without alarms is even better, great video still! Here’s a few things I experienced when I ditched alarms completely: 1) the morning starts at the night before 2) sleep early and let your body wake naturally at a reasonable hour in the morning(I wake up easily at 5:45am) 3) it’s very peaceful and empowering when you wake up in silence 4) sets me up to a good morning especially when I avoid looking at my phone(I’ll be honest, it doesn’t happen all the time)

Hi, It's been a year Idk your situation right now, but I've had an idea for anyone interested: Some phones have focus mode and or family mode. With them you can make your phone into an alarm only device for a few hours while you sleep and stuff. I don't know if it will work, but I'll try and if it works I'll come back.

On weekends I find myself scrolling through my phone at night until late hours, but I'm now inspired to be more disciplined with myself to stop the urge. My current screen time is around 3.5 hours and my goal is to get that down to under 2. It's like a mini game. Thanks again for making this amazing content that inspired us all! 😄

Currently doing a social media detox to move on from a heartbreak.

Some friends understand and respect what I do and others kinda judge me but I really don’t care. More and more people are getting a hold of my phone number and people text me directly, which really helps. Idk why I’m sharing this but it may help some of y’all trying to move on from bad times

So good to see this experiment being done. I have removed my mobile phone from the room and it made an impact in the mornings but you guys just inspired me to go make the evening change... it may ne a little change however i believe it will improve my sleep and overall life!! Thank you for sharing 🌻

The "importance of the evening" section really resonated with me in a couple of ways. Every morning I'm always trying to find something new in my life being that I want to quit my addiction to weed smoking, but end up distracted with so many thoughts in my head and other fears that I have. And, because of that fear, I'm always left panicking all throughout that "boring" period at night, so I just end up smoking as usual. Really sucks, but yea lol.

I've just met your channel but you're already helping me out so much, I can't describe how thankful I am!

I LOVE THIS VIDEO !!! It describes my life situation right now and how I became my worst own enemy, thank you for this I watched this in the right moment!!! Now I have to take control back and be my best! Thank you a lot man for your content!!!

For me it was an alarm + an Apple Watch. The watch has most essential features such as music, Audible etc. but without all the distractions. Great video 👍🏻

this video is truly incredible, love it. I had a lot of improvement by watching your dopamine video and this one of course do it, thanks alot Nik!

you are awesome man. I just found you when I've searched dopamine detox, and now im hooked to all your videos. Keep it up, you're such a big help to many to make the remaining days of our lives more meaningful, well not too late.. God bless

2 years ago I moved out from my parents. I deliberately searched for an apartment where I have a separate room for freetime and home office. I wanted an electronics free bedroom. I'm glad that you did that video as this is a very important topic.

Your videos always inspire me and make me reflect: what things are going right? What things are going wrong? Is this really how I want to live? Making your life better is definitely making other people's lives better. Great job man.❤️

Ive been experiencing the boredom and frustration of loneliness and avoiding time to myself through occupying my time with my phone, especially TikTok. I've literally never felt more depressed. If I stay off my phone I get really sad and down because I live alone, and if I'm on it I get sad not being able to talk to the people I used to. It's really hard.

This is my 15th time watching this video and it still gives the same kind of motivation........ I have been following you for more than a year and I absolutely love your videos.....The cinematography is the best I have ever seen. and tbh I have seen all of your videos more than 5 times at least.... Love what you are doing dude...ALL THE BEST

This is insane how your videos are perfectly edited. The story is always on point and they are highly motivating 💯

I was very shocked when I saw the title. It is very unique and fascinating to see. These videos remind me to be more aware of checking up my phone. Also, watching your videos is always like watching a film. It is amazing how the storyline and storytelling goes well. It feels like 20 minutes literally goes fast. Great work niklas, can't wait to see your videos!

This Video some how helped me out and I dont even have a phone, I can take a guess that it will help prepare from being in a deep connection with any electronic device

I don't have space for an alarm clock, as I have no bedside table, so I always put my phone just in the bed between the frame and the mattress. I think from know on I will have it on the table next to the door, so I have to get up and go to the exit of my room to turn off my alarm, and I'll also just check it before I leave the house instead of scrolling through. Being available in messages is sometimes important to me, but scrolling isn't at all. Watching this video has helped me get the motivation to begin my mornings in a better way.

Nice video, well done ! I've tried to do a week without phone in the morning like that, as an experiment, and it was freaking amazing ! The mornings was way more productive and stress-free but in the other hand, the evenings was really tough, I was choked to realise how much anxiety I had just by not having my phone in my room at night... The main problem was the feeling of not being able to answer an urgent phone call, like a friend needing help or an accident or something bad happening to a close relative... This illusion of control over things through devices like that is quite scary imo ! Anyway ! Thanks for the reminder, I'll try again very shortly for sure ! :)

You don’t even have to pay me, I will work somewhere else so that I can cover my own expenses. I have seen that foreign life style is so good and I want to experience it too. Please, just give me one month, sir. I will try to learn as many skills as possible so that I can help you in your work and I will not be a burden for you anymore. Sir, please, you are my inspiration, you are like a god for me. From your videos only I learned about how to find passion and in India it is not possible to work on your passion. Please, Niklas, help me. You are my last hope. Sincerely, Aditya Singh

I feel the fact that also makes a difference here is that all the people around you ditched the phone & that did the experiment alongwith you.

I think the reason they all did it despite being hard is the fact that all three of them knew they weren’t doing this alone.

The morning routine he showed as an example in the intro was the same one I was having today. After watching the video, I went to the gym and had a workout. On my way back, I bought an alarm clock. Kudos to you guys.

This has opened my eye because when I checked my screen time it was averaged 10 hour!!!!!!!!! Buying a alarm clock right now, as well, thank you for the video you gained my sub!!

I also find creative value in the evening time. Sometimes ideas or pathways of thinking arise and sometimes even adrenalin kicks in because of it. Though this is from huge value, i struggle a bit with the distraction that comes along with this. I feel the urge to note things down, when i actually have to sleep. Sometimes i take the notes if there is to much to remember until the next morning (using the phone - oh no rabbithole alert!), and sometimes i just try to remember until the next morning. Im sure some of all of you guys are experiencing that situation and that problem that comes along with it. How do you manage it? For me one solution was taking walks somewhat regularly. Im not that good in forcing myself into this mental state that we get when we are laying in bed without our phones. But taking a walk for 2 hours every know and then (probably 2 times a week at the moment) allows me to increasingly hop into this focused and creative state of mind during the walk. I still experience the bed thinking "problem" from time to time, but it happens not that often anymore since i can compensate and address it by simply taking walks.

The experiment is worth doing man .... Hats of to you .... Seriously after watching this i realised that its high time watch our screen times and minimise it. Thanks bro , loved the video ❤️

The fact there is even a such thing as Shortform shows just how bad phones and social media have affected us ... I remember loving to read back in the day

Wow! Lifechanging, I’m sure of it. Thank you so much ❤️

I love this style of videos. The experiment with explaining how the thing works and awesome montage. Incredible video and instant subscribe!

your lifestyle, theme and productivity is basically what I want my life to be

your videos are so well made. i know you from the dopamine detox video and i have to say the dopamine video and this one are very inspiring. just bought my alarm clock haha. now the only thing i need to get away from is my nicotine addiction. its really really hard to quit tho and i failed it a few times already. i feel like it impacts my life in a bad way a lot tho. whenever you feel bad, wake up and feel unmotivated etc. you just go smoke (or in my case vape) and instantly get insane amounts of dopamine. the fact that you consume nicotine when you feel like youre low on it (meaning in terms of you feel down), is a very bad thing. an example that sounds very weird. i really like playing video games and do it very competetively with doing aim-training and practising micro movements. i gotta say tho that playing video games is a hobby that i have accepted and do not want to let go off. its a hobby i like and i dont feel like i have no control over it. when im playing videogames and im in a game, sometimes i do stupid mistakes as everyone does. lets say i die ingame. then i take a vape hit and get rewarded by dopamine. the fact that i get dopamine after doing a mistake is really really bad in my opinion. because i have the feeling it actually slows down my learning process. lets say i would play my videogame without consuming nicotine. i would only get rewarded and feel good if i do something right, like lets say killing someone in my videogame. however, when i smoke while playing, i also get rewarded by the nicotine i consume while playing the game. and its just a habit to smoke when you feel low on dopamine (you just did something stupid). so i think, my brain gets confused and doesnt know which action was wrong or right now. because i dont have the low dopamine moments when doing something idiotic. so i dont learn from it. now take this example to a different level. what if you apply this habit of smoking when you feel bad so other parts of your life. while learning for something. you dont understand a math topic, you take a vape hit and feel good again. you get rewarded even tho you did nothing good in terms of learning. im pretty sure that this is the reason consuming nicotine actually impacts your learning process. i feel like if i played video games without smoking when i do something silly, i could be way better by now and maybe even professional. I know my example with playing videogames is a bad one because playing video games is an addiction to many people itself. but you can apply this concept to so many other things and you will realize that if youre vaping or consuming nicotine whilst doing something productive, it will negatively impact your learning process. this is the reason i need to let go of my nicotine addiction in the future too.

Wow man this is so well said. I love your ability to apply what Niklas was talking about with every aspect in life, that is absolutely amazing! I hope you are able to conquer your addiction with nicotine, I do believe you can! It will be tough, but in the end you will come out on top! Cheers!

I've been using a dedicated alarm clock my whole life, I never even gave any thought to using my phone, with very rare exceptions like when I'm on vacation and I forget to bring a travel alarm. I agree with all the points you made here. In addition, another nice thing is that, when you wake up in the middle of the night and want to know what time it is, you can do that without having to open up your phone and risk getting distracted/blinded by the bright light.

Slowly I am working on this bad habit of not been on my phone too much. Great video love it today I discovered your channel.

I so need to do this. Also, I'm so afraid to check my screen time.

Maxi is so fun to watch. Do bring him more often in your videos. Really enjoyed his vibe 😁

this is how one can be more focused in life i usually watch 15 secs reel for long hours this was the first time i watched 24 mins video without fast forward, i hope i can makeup my brain to use less mobile and yeah definitely getting a Alarm Clock thanks Buddy the video was a eye opener to me.

I wish I had watched this earlier and not put it in my watch later because the ending really resonated with me, physical distance is the only solution.

Niklas, my mannn... Your videos always hit different 🔥 Salute 💪

Hands down your best video thus far! So entertaining. Lots of love from a fellow Capetonian!!! 💪🏻✌🏻

My screen time was around 2 hours per day on social media. Split that into morning and evening usage which are the worst times to do that. I know its much much less then most of you out there but I still bought an alarm clock and also I placed my phone into grey screen mode to make it look boring and basic. This content can really change your life if you put time into it. I havent seen helpfull content like this in a long time.

It is very usefull video.When you are watching it you become realising that phone really get almost all your free time.Just imagine how many usefull things we could do in time which our phone took.I am watching this video in order to improve my listening skils in english.I want to say it to all people who are watching this video.I think if you watch video like this, you want to change yourself to better side, so never give up and go into your goal to the end even if sometimes it is very hard.I believe in you!

This is such an amazing video / wake up call (no pun intended). I love your content and the way you bring amazing messages to all of us! "wake up in your own life and not someone else's"

Another thing I think is useful is not to scroll the shorts, but to decide a minimum what to watch instead of let KZread choose. (for example *choose* from feeds)

Great vid again :) also loving the Rotterdam stock footage at 10:31 just caught myself saying ‘I live there’ out loud

Excited to watch - your videos are always so inspiring, from the visuals/music/epic drone shots etc. good work! It’s kind of nice not to scroll through your phone at night/in the morning. It completely drains me to do that as well.. sometimes I charge my phone on the other side of the room so it forces me to get up when my alarm goes off, and then I don’t feel like lying in bed and staring at my phone since I’m already up Also WHERE/HOW do you make those graphics? I’m hoping to create graphics for my own channel as well

Thanks for the great feedback! I make all my animations from scratch in After Effects. I‘m thinking about including a section about it in my online course which I‘ll develop soon. 🙌🏽 My other text graphics like the lower thirds will be available soon in my online shop.

What a video!! WOW!!!!!!!!! I haven't taken my mobile phone into the bedroom since 2015. A life-changing decision! I used to use the alarm on my phone and have it in the hallway. For the last 2 years, I have used the alarm on my watch instead. No phone usage for the first and last 2 hours of the day.

If you ask someone how to enter Heaven, they will most likely say, "Be a good person." Well the Bible says that none is good, no not one. We like to compare ourselves to guys like Hitler and say, "Hey, I'm a pretty good guy compared to him." But when we compare ourselves to God's standard, we realize that the Bible speaks truth when it says that we all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God! When we see this ( our sin in its TRUE light), we see how much trouble we are in and we say, "Well then there's nothing I can do. I'm going to hell for sure then." It's true that there is nothing that WE can do, but there is something that has already been done for you! God sent His One and Only Son to die on a cross as a sacrifice for our sins! So to recieve that eternal sweet sweet forgiveness, all we must do is repent of our sins (meaning to continually turn from them and confess them) and trust alone in Christ as you trust a parachute. If I was to push you out of an airplane, you'd want the parachute for sure! Don't try to flap your arms and save yourself, trust in the parachute!! His finished work on the Cross IS ENOUGH!!! He is the only way to Heaven, He said it Himself!! These other religions teach that we must he good and do good things and then maybe if we've been good enough, we will enter Heaven. But if that is true then we are all doomed to eternal hell because none of us are good. That's why this makes sense. Look at the Ten Commandments, they are written on your heart right now!! I promise that you have violated them. And you might still be doing that today. Therefore God is just to poor out His wrath on you because you deserve it!!!! I do too but Christ died for me anyway so that I can spend eternity in Heaven with Him!!!! Turn to Him today, and He and only He will save your soul! "Verily, verily I say unto you, you must be born again ( to go to Heaven)."✝️

Niklas, you do really have a talent for storytelling. I think this is a great video cause I and probably many other are addicted to social media on the same way. It‘s important that we free ourselves from this sh*t cause it does NOT matter. Ahh yes by the way, I could imagine that you‘re sponsored by Philips as well 😂✌️ Alarm clock sales after this video 📈📈📈

Bro You Are Amazing at Storytelling.. Love Your Videos.. Hope to meet you Someday.. Thanks...

Such a great video! Good for you guys

Thanks for info 😊☺️
