This sounds like a great idea. I have a strong impulse to answer phones, so if I put the phone far enough from my bed I had to get up to answer it, I'd get past the biggest obstacle.

There are two minor problems: None of the people I know have free time early in the morning, but two minutes is manageable. When outside, I'm not sure what to do so there's a risk I'd get anxious and default to going home.

I'll try it, thanks.
