I carried 4 with me and no one asked. Unbox them and just carry phones in backpack, carry boxes in checked luggage

Depends on port of entry. Had no issues with Delhi, but Mumbai guys are pretty thorough, your phone plus one more phone is sweet spot.

Arrived in Mumbai 2 weeks ago with 3 phones, 2 ipads and 2 laptops. Nobody bothered or even blinked an eye.

Saw my therapist this past Friday and he gave me a useful trick to build better behavior patterns. Whenever you have work to do but would rather nap or something, tell yourself 3 negative effects of the nap and 3 positive effects of doing the work. You might still take the nap, but if you can get in the habit of thinking of it negatively, you'll take less naps when you need to be doing other things.

Doesn't matter what the activities are. Could be working out vs eating more, could be socializing IRL vs wasting time in FB (lol)

Anyone else heard of this/tried it?
