I stumbled across an article about a third eye for "smartphone zombies" that was created by a South Korean
designer.
To solve the increasingly-common problem of smartphone users banging into walls and polls while walking with their heads down and eyes glued to their screens, the device straps to the user's head and beeps whenever they get within a few feet of an obstacle.
Although the designer says he created it as a warning and for satirical purposes rather than as a real world solution, I think he might be onto something ...
Smartphone addiction is a very real thing and it's dangerous - especially for entrepreneurs.
The fancy devices in our pockets distract us and keep us from doing productive things we need to do to grow our businesses.
Before you think I'm preaching from my soapbox, I admit that I used to spend too much time looking at my smartphone.
I've worked hard this year to drastically reduce my screen time, and I've seen my productivity shoot through the roof.
I'm now teaching my clients to do the same, since I want them to get the best results they possibly can (them getting good results makes me look good)
If you're looking for better results (more clients) with your coaching business, I've opened up a few spots to work 1:1 with coaches who want to make more money and spend less time staring at little screens.
