So, we often take for granted just how truly remarkable something as small as this can be.

是以，我們常常會想當然地認為，像這樣的小事是多麼了不起。

Like I'm sure many of you, I've come to rely on my smartphone for so much.

我相信很多人都和我一樣，非常依賴智能手機。

It's my GPS, my music player, messaging device, camera, and I hear that it can even make phone calls.

它是我的 GPS、音樂播放器、資訊設備、照相機，聽說還能打電話。

But this all comes at a cost, because for all of the amazing pros that my smartphone gives me, there's one massive con.

但是，這一切都要付出代價，因為我的智能手機給我帶來了這麼多令人驚歎的優點，但也有一個巨大的缺點。

It's the first thing I grab in the morning, and the last thing that I look at before I go to bed.

這是我早上起床第一件事，也是我睡覺前看的最後一件事。

It fills so many moments of my day, from when I brew my coffee, to when I'm in the bathroom, to when I'm bored during a meeting.

它充斥著我一天中的許多時刻，從我沖泡咖啡的時候，到我在浴室的時候，再到我在會議期間感到無聊的時候。

These moments often add up to over two or three hours every day.

這些時刻每天加起來往往超過兩三個小時。

And I've done just about everything I can to intentionally bring my phone into my life.

我想盡一切辦法，有意識地讓手機融入我的生活。

I've deleted tempting apps, I've quit social media, I've created more distance between myself and my phone, but I always found myself crawling back to old habits.

我刪掉了誘人的應用程序，我退出了社交媒體，我讓自己和手機之間有了更多的距離，但我總是發現自己又回到了以前的習慣。

So I decided to take things one step further and swap my smartphone for a flip phone for 30 days.

是以，我決定更進一步，用翻蓋手機代替智能手機，為期 30 天。

I really want to see if dumbing down my technology makes me any happier, and honestly just see if I can get by without it.

我真的很想看看，降低技術含量是否會讓我更快樂，老實說，我只是想看看，如果沒有這些技術，我是否能過得更好。

Before I get into this experiment, I want to talk about my course, Simple Habits, for just 30 seconds.

在開始這個實驗之前，我想先談談我的課程《簡單習慣》，時間只有 30 秒鐘。

If you're tired of failing to build healthy habits, struggle to stay motivated, and you keep procrastinating on your goals, I truly believe that this course will help you meet your potential.

如果你厭倦了無法養成健康的生活習慣，難以保持動力，並且一直在拖延實現目標的時間，我真心相信，本課程將幫助你發揮潛能。

It sets you up with a plan of action, provides habit tactics that work, and gives you tools to create accountability.

它為你制定行動計劃，提供有效的習慣策略，併為你提供建立責任感的工具。

And now back to my flip phone experiment.

You know, one of the highlights of my day so far was waking up in the morning and not grabbing my phone and browsing idly through the first half hour of my day.

要知道，到目前為止，我一天中最重要的事情之一就是早上醒來後，沒有拿起手機閒逛半個小時。

That has become a habit as of late, and waking up this morning and not having that option forced me to just start my day, to make my cup of coffee, to start checking emails and get to work.

最近，這已經成為一種習慣，今天早上醒來，沒有了這個選項，迫使我不得不開始一天的工作，泡一杯咖啡，開始檢查電子郵件，然後開始工作。

And that to me felt a lot better than checking the news to see what awful thing happened.

對我來說，這比看新聞知道發生了什麼可怕的事情要好得多。

While the first few hours of this experiment started off great, it didn't take long for me to start to feel the repercussions of downgrading to a flip phone.

雖然實驗開始的頭幾個小時感覺不錯，但沒過多久，我就開始感覺到降級為翻蓋手機帶來的影響。

Now this phone has two useful tools on it.

現在，這款手機上有兩個有用的工具。

Calling works like a charm, and texting, absolute nightmare.

打電話很管用，發短信絕對是噩夢。

It takes so long to text on a flip phone.

用翻蓋手機發短信要花很長時間。

Sending an individual text message takes like 15 minutes.

發送一條簡訊大概需要 15 分鐘。

I find myself being very short with people.

People probably think that I'm being really rude, when in fact, it just takes so long to write a text.

大家可能會覺得我很粗魯，其實，寫一篇文字需要的時間太長了。

And so I'd rather just say, K, than say, okay, sounds great, which would take me 5 to 10 minutes to write.

是以，我寧可直接說 "K"，而不是說 "好吧，聽起來不錯"，這需要我花 5 到 10 分鐘來寫。

I have a text message group right now with my family.

我現在和家人有一個簡訊群組。

It's about 10 to 15 people on this text message thread.

大約有 10 到 15 個人在這條簡訊上留言。

And my phone does not know how to bulk them together.

而我的手機不知道如何將它們散裝在一起。

It's literally impossible for me to keep up with every single conversation.

我根本不可能跟上每一次談話。

I'm trying to push more and more people away from phone for communication.

我正試圖讓越來越多的人遠離電話通訊。

So if it's something that's like a really big question and I get a text message about it, I might text somebody back like, hey, I'm gonna email you.

所以，如果是一個非常大的問題，我收到了相關簡訊，我可能會給別人回簡訊，比如，嘿，我會給你發郵件。

But on a positive note, I can now do this.

但積極的一面是，我現在可以這樣做了。

I've had just about enough of your attitude.

That's right, a large pepperoni pizza with fries.

沒錯，一個大意大利香腸披薩配薯條。

So to give you a little bit of context for when I started this challenge, it was in the middle of the 2020 election.

為了給大家介紹一下我開始這項挑戰的背景，當時正值 2020 年大選期間。

Like so many people, I just got absorbed into the media, the election, the news.

和許多人一樣，我也被媒體、選舉和新聞所吸引。

I was listening to political podcasts every morning.

And it consumed me in a really unhealthy way.

它以一種非常不健康的方式吞噬著我。

I noticed that my mental health started to deteriorate because of it.

我注意到，我的心理健康是以開始惡化。

I kept dooms scrolling, looking for that next bit of bad news.

我不停地滾動厄運滾動條，尋找下一個壞消息。

But I realized that it was causing me a lot of distress.

但我意識到，這給我帶來了很大的困擾。

And so that was the biggest motivator for me to say, you know what?

I need to put some distance between myself and my phone.

我需要讓自己和手機保持一定的距離。

All right, so I'm about a week into this experiment.

好了，我已經做了一週的實驗了。

And I can already tell that one of the biggest benefits is that I am spending way less time on screens and really the moments in between.

我已經能感覺到，最大的好處之一就是，我在螢幕上和螢幕之間的時間大大減少了。

The moments when I'm making a cup of coffee and I'm waiting for the coffee to brew.

我在煮咖啡，等待咖啡煮好的時刻。

Or when I wake up in the morning and I'm brushing my teeth, going to the bathroom.

或者當我早上醒來刷牙、上廁所的時候。

I'm not on my phone in every single waking minute of my day, which is amazing.

我並不是每時每刻都在玩手機，這一點很了不起。

Of course, there have been moments when I will replace my phone for my laptop.

當然，有的時候我也會把手機換成筆記本電腦。

But I found that I really don't do that that often.

但我發現，我真的不經常這樣做。

Definitely not nearly as much as I was using my phone.

絕對沒有我使用手機的次數多。

So I find more moments of stillness throughout my day where I can simply just be patient.

是以，我在一天中找到了更多靜止的時刻，在那裡我只需耐心等待。

I do feel, as my friend Anthony Ungaro would say, that flinch.

正如我的朋友安東尼-昂加洛所說，我確實感覺到了那種退縮。

But since I don't have it, since it shut off and it's locked away, it's no longer a problem.

但既然我沒有它，既然它關閉了，而且被鎖起來了，那就不再是個問題了。

This has really been one of the most effective ways in controlling the usage of my phone and my screen time.

這確實是控制我使用手機和螢幕時間的最有效方法之一。

Hi, I'm looking to recycle some hard drives.

I was wondering, can I simply just come by and drop them off?

我想知道，我可以直接過來把它們送過去嗎？

Yeah, you don't need an appointment or anything and it's all free.

是的，你不需要預約什麼的，而且都是免費的。

I'm heading out right now to recycle some old hard drives.

我現在正要去回收一些舊硬盤。

I've got about 40, 50 plus hard drives I need to recycle.

我有 40、50 多個硬盤需要回收。

And so I need to go somewhere I've never been before.

是以，我需要去一個我從未去過的地方。

I'm going to try to use my Google Maps on this phone.

我要嘗試在這部手機上使用谷歌地圖。

But I'm not sure if it's going to work, if it's going to crash.

但我不確定它是否會成功，是否會崩潰。

So as a backup, I'm going to print off some directions.

是以，作為備份，我要打印一些說明。

This is what I used to do back in high school, when there was just MapQuest and you had no GPS on your phone.

這是我在高中時常做的事，那時只有 MapQuest，手機上也沒有 GPS。

So I'm not looking forward to it, to be honest.
