Good tip. I used to charge my phone outside my room before going to bed. I need to get back to doing this.

Leave it in your car or another room. When I'm on vacation, I lock it in the safe from time to time. The challenge I have now is that my phone is my camera.

There’s a way to turn on grayscale on your phone so it’s less attractive to use. Or, you just stick to reading articles.

Very cool. I like this.

Hide distracting apps in the back of folders instead of your front page. Turn off vibration feature. Turn on airplane mode and hide under couch pillows 😂 if on vacation abroad don’t get local data, put on airplane mode and use WiFi only 1-2x a day in your hotel or Airbnb (don’t try to connect at cafes etc)

And turn off notifications!

Deloitte question. I have always gotten a raise each year, the only question I ask is how much of a raise do I get. But I’m hearing from former Deloitte folks, it is naive to expect annual raises each year however small/big they are? And how does this play in Deloitte consulting vs advisory? Do one tend to withhold annual raises in base salary over the other, or is this just a deloitte culture thing? Looking at exit opportunities all over. So lmk! I’d Rather get a small raise than none at all.
