Barricading | 5 Minute Friday

from Construction Brothers Hosted by Construction Brothers

Sometimes things get away from you. Today we discuss the ways we reduce the number of things that get away from us. Eddie introduces the idea of a barricade. His primary barricade for excessive scrolling or social media usage? Use a browser-based version that is clunky enough that he doesn’t want to keep staring at it. We discuss the relentless attention suck that social media is for us and the whole family. Sometimes you need to treat yourself like a kid. “Sorry, but you can’t have your laptop today.” Having a hard time getting consistent with that daily workout? Maybe leave your only stick of deodorant at the gym–or in a shoe box a couple miles from home. If you have any examples of ways you place barricades to redirect your behavior, give us a call at 512-THE-BROS.
