Kill your Screentime (for Gen X 40-60 years): Reclaim time and attention, get back into the real world!

You are Gen X, and you are the last generation on Earth who remembers what a fully offline adult life feels like!You check your phone around 288 times a day...Every time you sit down. Every time you stand up. Every time your grown kid takes twenty minutes to reply. Every time your aging mother's health scare crosses your mind. You have been telling yourself for the better part of a decade that you will fix this once things calm down, once the kids are settled, once the parents' health has stabilized, once the business is running smoothly. That stretch of quiet is not coming. And in the meantime, another year has gone by, and another, and you are still scrolling four hours a day, and the second half of your one and only life is quietly slipping through your thumb.Written by author and self confessed screenjunkie Martin Miller, Kill Your Screentime (for Gen X 40-60 years) is a straight, honest, decade-defining wake-up call for the generation that watched the entire attention economy get built while it was busy raising families and paying mortgages.This book will not lecture you about a device you already know is running your life. It will not pretend Facebook and LinkedIn are the whole story. It will give you the exact map to reclaim the years you have left of your one and only precious life.Inside this book, you will discover: - How Silicon Valley built a Skinner box for your thumb, and why insiders keep their own kids off it...- The specific damage screens are doing to your fifty-year-old sleep, back, eyes, and nervous system- Why your grown kids, your grandkids, your spouse, and your aging parents are all quietly starving on the edges of your attention- The exact protocol to drop from nine hours a day to five, without becoming a monk or throwing away your phone- How to rebuild the offscreen life you already know how to live, in the second half of your years, before the runway runs out!-This book will not ask you to become a monk. It will ask you to become an adult again, and to reclaim the fully offline life you actually remember living, before the machine arrived and quietly took the years you had left.If you are a Gen Xer who remembers calling a friend's house and hoping their mother would answer, who has watched your own kids grow up faster than you meant to be present for, who is starting to feel your body signal that things do not bounce back the way they used to, and who wants the second half of your life to be the part you were actually there for, this book was written for you.Read it. Turn the phone off, and get your life back!
