Social Media Addiction & Your Mental Demise | The Taylor Discipline Podcast #223
In this podcast: how you can stop letting social media use you, but instead, create fixed rules and routines around it. Attention must always be directed and budgeted. Rules and timing things matters. Do not rely on your biology—it cannot be relied on. Discoveries in neuroscience have shown that you get pleasure from potentiality and not actuality. Social media companies know this, and they construct their platforms in a way that encourages compulsive behavior. Potentiality in social media show up as likes, comments, notifications, live streams, etc. Make sure you have rules around when and how long you use it. Extend that practice to any and all areas of your life that are susceptible to abuse.

How Setting Parameters Will Reduce Your Stress | The Taylor Discipline Podcast #221
In this podcast: Parameters are measurable factors that define the conditions under which a thing operates.The power of having parameters set on your behavior is incredible. There is a common misconception that rules and boundaries are a bad thing; according to psychology, that's completely false...Rules (i.e. parameters) provide more freedom and certainty. It is certainty that tends to bring joy to life. I explain further in today's podcast.
