How many times do you pick up your phone in a day? Like seriously take a moment.  I feel like in today's society the new norm is to constantly consume.

It's uncomfortable  2. We...

What is spitball fire you ask? Term created for moments when you feel "stuck" or "in your head" with life, your business,  basically any situation, but you feel on fire with these thoughts.
