Can I stay without my priceless possession?

I know that staying away from my priceless possession can help me regain focus, improve my well-being, and enhance my overall quality of life but to be honest, I don't think I can stay without it.

Lately, I have been praising my priceless possession a lot for being the best part of me since it has been there for me though thick and thin. I never knew I will soon be asked to describe that one thing that will make me stay away from this my priceless possession. Yes, my phone is my most priceless possession because I don't think there is anything my phone has not been able to do for me.

My phone has brought smile to my face even in my darkest hours. It made money for me when nothing else was working. To be honest, I really don't think I can stay without my phone or can I? Being without my phone can be a great deal for me but is there really something that can make me stay away from my phone?

Recently the most watched reality TV show in Nigerian came to an end. Some set of people from different background were made to stay in a house for a period of hundred (100) days. They stayed in the house without any interaction with the outside world and most especially without their phones since they were not allowed to go into the house with their phones.

I kept wondering how they were able to do this because I have never stayed without my phone for an hour not to talk of 100days. A minute without my phone is like I am incomplete. Even times when my phone battery runs down, I always feel as if I am missing a part of me. That's how important my phone is to me.

Thinking of it now, I feel the big brother naija housemates were able to stay in the big brother house without their phone for that long because they had a purpose. They were willing to do that because of the money involved. I don't think there is anyone that won't be willing to sacrifice his or her phone especially when one hundred and twenty thousand dollars ($120,000)is at stake or is there anyone?

I believe you don't expect me to miss such great opportunity because I said my phone was my priceless possession right? So honestly, if there is anything that would keep me away from my phone, then it would be something that involves me making money. Hope you are not thinking I am betraying my phone because of money🤔. Nah, I am not because I need to make money to survive.

Apparently, for sometime now, I have been staying away from my phone during work hours since I started working. Money is involved and so, I need to concentrate at work to make more money. I have come in terms with this since phones can be a distraction during work hours. Good a thing it's just for some hours so I can easily drop my phones and get back to it immediately after work.

No matter how difficult it is to stay away from my phone, I think I only need to find a balance that suits my lifestyle and priorities and then, everything will become perfect.

Thanks for visiting my blog.

I feel those people who stayed in that house for 100 days without phone were busy they were with people and all having fun.
Activities are ongoing in the house 24 hours so no even time to check phone and if phones were allowed people will be distracted

Activities ain't always going on in the house. Some of them were so bored and were missing their phone so much. I do hear talk about how they miss their phone alot.. They couldn't do anything about because they came into the house willingly for a specific goal.

It's actually a matter of choice.. Just as you think it doesn't worth it, so many persons feel its worth it.. So it all depends..

Using phones may very well served as a great distraction during work that can affect ones performance and at worst can lead people to make mistakes which can cause people to lose their jobs. So it's good that you can stay away from using phone while working.

Yea, I believe that's one of the times I can actually stay away from my phones plus when it's time for prayers and time for worship...

Thanks for your feedback

The BBNaija people are really trying ooo!
But the thing is that, they set their minds for the money involved and that helped them to kill the addiction with phone... at least for that 100days
