Like Pavlov’s dog we are conditioned to do something everytime we hear a ring.
Day 316: Don’t use the phone
Spend the day without answering or even speaking on the telephone. If it rings ignore it. The tough part of the challenge will be not succumbing to the phone’s every whim. In today’s age of portable phones and contact we have succumbed to the technology. Forget about who may be calling. Chances are it can wait. However if you feel it may be a life threatening call then go ahead and answer or use the phone. Otherwise, ignore it.
