0:00.0	Welcome to the Daily Dad podcast, where we provide one lesson every single day to help you with your most important job, being a parent.
0:14.9	I'm Ryan Holiday, and I draw these lessons from ancient philosophy, modern psychology, practical wisdom, and insights from
0:23.4	parents just like you all over the world. Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps.
0:31.4	My phone is always with me. I'm on it too much. I try to use it less. But one of the things I'm
0:36.2	thinking about is if I am going to
0:38.0	use it, how can I use it productively? So instead of scrolling social media, instead of checking my
0:43.5	email for the thousandth time, I'm trying to swap that habit for something that's actually adding
0:49.2	value. And that's where today's sponsor Masterclass comes in. Look, hobbies aren't just for fun in stillness is the key.
0:58.1	I have a whole chapter about the power of hobbies, how they help us regulate, how they help

1:18.6	explore and learn hundreds of potential new hobbies, experts from Masters of the Field. And with

1:29.2	They've got plans starting at just $10 a month billed annually, and you can get access to over
1:35.2	200 classes taught by the world's best business leaders, writers, chefs, and more.
1:41.4	We even have a daily stoic class on ancient philosophy. With masterclass,
1:45.9	you get thousands of bite-sized lessons across 13 categories that can fit into even the busiest of
1:51.9	schedules. You can take it bit by bit. So instead of taking out your phone to scroll social,
1:55.9	take another module on one of the classes. You can learn to eat more healthfully and sustainably with Michael Poland.
2:02.4	You can build habits that stick with James Clear. As I said, you can check out my master
2:07.5	class about solving modern problems using ancient philosophy. And the classes really make a difference.
