I am very frustrated...I live alone..in delhi from 2monts I am not able to study due to mobile addiction or feeling sleepy after breakfast...and also time table...not able to sleep at night....bcz of which not able to go for my yoga classes

Sir,i am 25 years old...i come from a lower middle class family...from my adulthood i have dreamt of giving upsc.. seeing my family condition,after graduation i started ssc then banking preparation...now if everything goes well i will become an officer in regional rural bank...sir, to be honest when i saw my scorecard of mains exam i knew that there is 90% chance that i will be selected and in that moment i was finally happy because now i can start my actual journey..i don't care if i will get selected or not..i just want to gain knowledge..that all encompassing knowledge that i can get from this exam..i am very excited for this..i have been watching your videos for a long time...being there in the main administrative body of the country..it is so nice of you that you find time for such students.I want to develop such personality.

I haven’t opened any social media platform since I watched your video sir , I’ve uninstalled many online games and insta and I felt much better , initially it’s tough but later on I felt much better after doing it . My takeaway from this video are 1) understand the dopamine patterns and the reason why you’ve addicted to it 2) Try to get dopamine through good hobbies 3) Avoid all social media platforms 4) Better to use a keypad phone 5) Stop checking the phone the moment you wake up 6) Try to browse anything in laptop rather than phone

few months back till july I was a smoker 24 years of age done Msc and preparing for state pcs ....suddenly my 7 long year of relationship ended .I was going through a lot of pain. But decided to quit everything sugar short video drinking smoking (I call it s3d)... tried many things initial 1 month for me was quiet tough ...I was not able to focus anywhere...And then I included daily workout in my schedule and not looking at the phone in first and last 1 hr of my day.. and after every week when the screen time app shows the percentage of decreasing avg screen time I just feel happy ... today 17th dec its been 4months and I am able to keep a large distance from s3d just trying to focus more on prep and self growth ...dont know whether I will be a civil servant or not but one thing for sure this has done a lot of change to my character...

I didn't use social media app like youtube and whats app . I don't even used my phone for other activities. This gave me so much of self satisfaction . Thankyou so much sir

This Phone addiction is not only limited to UPSC aspirants. We can see almost in all the young generation getting addicted to their phone,distracting themselves from their study,career etc. Its becoming a huge problem.

Points to be followed 1 .happiness chemical dopamine 2 . rewarding pain instead of pleasure 3. Not to use mobiles early in the mornings and late nights. 4.turning off notifications if using any kind of social media. 5.having a hobby in free time in order to relax other than social media. Sir as per my understanding i learnt these from u i actually try to follow these in my day to day preparation to upsc but i fail after watchingur video i really took the challenge serious I can't say i did it 100% but upto my extent i max tried not using 95 percent . I hope the interaction with u might help me alot to move forward in my preparation. Ur really an inspiration to many and thank you sir

I tried this challenge and successfully completed it with my reward pain. 1. I didn't use my phone last night before sleeping 2. I didn't use my phone( not even WhatsApp) when i woke up today. 3. I didn't use YouTube shorts since last evening. At last, Thankyou so much Sir, im trying to stay committed with my given task and hope the best.

Respected sir, I watched this video yesterday night and didn't open any social media platform for 24 hours. It was difficult but felt good after completing this challenge.

I have completed my commitment.I didn't used any social media since last morning.😊 Steps suggested by you which I trying to imbibe in my daily routine 1) Trying to have least interaction on social media if possible delete them or turn off notifications 2)Figuring out the time when we are most craved for using phone 3) Trying to develop a hobby,meet our positive friends, have a silent walk with ourselves which we could replace with my unnecessary screen time 4) Reward ourselves after achieving every 🎯 targets even if it it very small.

Sir, yesterday I watched this video at 8:51 AM. I successfully completed 24 hr challenge 😊. Really a big thanks to you sir. Because, I used to study more than 8 hr a day, but for the last 40 days I wasn’t able meet my targets. But this video helps me to retain my power. Thank you so much sir.

My learnings: 1.Dopamine or happiness chemical is the reason for cravings 2.Always keep notification off of social media apps 3.Find out the time slot when we use the mobile phone for insta etc. 4.Never use in the morning and late night 5.Train your mind for pain instead of pleasure 6.Check your surroundings Sir, actually I don't have any social media apps in my phone except what's app ( notification off always ) and telegram ( notification on only of important groups). And I use forest app while studying so that I don't touch the phone for those particular hours and when I complete that target it always gives positive feeling. Yes , I am accepting challenge.

After watching your video i left my mobile in My UPSC residential academy itself. Now, belive me sir it's best thing ever happened with me like reading some spiritual Book 📚 for some time before slee and get sleep 😪. Now I on track thank you.

Thank you sir for realizing this horrible things which damaging us ..yesterday morning i saw your video and accepted 😅your challenge..it's literally quite tough but i done it...i was study only by books and now i also realize that i loss my books readings habits..thank you again ❤

Sir I literally switched off my phone for 10 days and kept in cupboard. Initial 3,4 days I was irritated because of not having phone but after 5th day I feel more focused, clam mind ,stopped overthinking of unnecessary things and I also used to do meditation which helped me to look around myself,my strength and weakness and it boosted me very much... Sir I will be very grateful to meet you as I also live in Mumbai 🙏❤
