Real Life Story – Digital Distraction (English Version)

Riya was a working mom and also ran her own blog. Her dream was to make her blog successful. But she had one major problem — mobile and social media distraction.

Whenever she sat down to write her blog, her phone was filled with notifications — WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube reels. She would pick up her phone just for 5 minutes, but without realizing it, 1 hour would pass. At the end of the day, she felt that even after staying busy all day, she hadn’t done anything productive.

One day, her son said to her —

"Mom, you are always on your phone. Why don’t you play with me?"

This deeply touched Riya. She realized that digital distraction was affecting not only her work but also her family time and mental peace.

She started taking small steps:

Keeping her phone on silent mode while writing her blog

Setting a fixed time to check social media

Switching off her phone one hour before going to sleep

Within 2–3 weeks, she started seeing a difference.

Her blog content improved, her stress reduced, and her family time also became better.
