    For one of my challenges, I chose specifically to cut down my screen time, because I found myself going on my phone every night before bed for at least 20 minutes - which I am aware is not that great to do - and this gave me the initiative to cut that time away. Since starting the challenge, I've stopped checking my phone after climbing into bed, and I've gotten much better sleep at night because of it!
