“Over the last week I have tried to drastically reduce my Instagram use. I realize it is really challenging for me to completely stop using it.
So I started speaking with the part of me willing to go on Insta — and the part willing to stop losing time there.
The first one expressed her need for instant, effortless reward, which shows me the need to allow myself perhaps to have more leisure/light time in my life. The second wants to spend my time wisely and get free from impulsive behaviour to move toward more freedom and peace.
Both have now heard each other and agreed to look for a compromise balance and a possible better way to meet the needs, in order to bring the system into balance and reduce tension between those two parts of myself.”

This is a reflection of one of the CDI current certification students on the homework challenge they were given last week – to make your internal parts talk to each other.

In CDI, we teach systemic coaching – and practice it on ourselves.

Systemic means that we are all interdependent and only can see part of the truth from our perspective. We have to let every voice be heard to see the bigger picture.

Your own digital procrastination typically signals a conflict between values or parts that want to do different things – one part of yours wants to go and have fun, the other wants you to be productive. When you don’t recognize both of them, the one you are suppressing starts getting wild – so you don’t satisfy either.

The same thing happens in families. Research shows that children’s poor digital habits are often just a symptom of unhealthy relationship dynamics within the family. When a child cannot maintain the pressure of family members not being able to talk constructively to each other and pushing it all to them (the so-called triangulation effect), they resort to the virtual world. So if you take away the phone from them at this stage, this is going to lead to even more non-constructive behaviour – conflicts, antisocial behaviour, possible substance abuse.

In this case, if you want to limit a child’s screen time, you need to start not from taking away their smartphone (or prohibit access to social media) – but from solving internal family dynamics.

Understanding systemic dynamics is super important to change behaviours – otherwise you are only going to tackle the symptom, not the cause.

PS if you want to get to the root cause of your childs' or your own digital behaviour - and help others do the same, check out certification in digital wellbeing. Next intake starts January 2026, waitlist open. Details https://consciouslydigital26.zite.so/

These results from Microsoft 2025 Work Trend Index are shocking.
How does anyone get anything done when...

- employees are interrupted every two minutes
- over half of the meetings are happening without any schedules
- people do everything last minute
- and talk even more frequently than before?

Gotta be wondering, why in spite of the abundance of productivity tools and especially AI we are even more confused, busy and fragmenting our attention?

Here's the uncomfortable truth.

Adding more technology to your day is not going to solve your overload problem, no matter what tech companies are promising to you. We've heard this before - being told since 1980s that tech will free up our time. This never happened.

This is called Jevon’s Paradox - and in a nutshell, it shows that greater efficiency increases consumption, not decreases it. In other words - the more digital tools you'll be using to optimize your time... the more busy you will be.

So how can we get anything done (and ideally also not go crazy) in the times when everything is asking for our attention?

We are big believers in starting from within, from our own brain and attentional resources. Only by mastering how our brain works, adjusting your work based on your attention cycles, and changing your routines would you be ready to master the tech tools - and not be mastered by them.

This is why we are running a 5-Day Attention Detox Challenge for busy professionals. It's happening 1-5th September, just after you'll be back from holidays (risking to lose all the benefits of the rest if you jump into the crazy workflow without any change).
