The Pivot Matrix Quiz: Discover Your Quadrant

In This Article

Why Knowing Your Quadrant Matters

Digital detox tips fail when they don’t match your starting point. Our Offline Pivot Matrix Quiz sorts you by two forces:

  • Motivation – how much you want to change
  • Confidence – how much you believe you can change

Pinpoint those levels and you’ll stop wasting effort on tactics that aren’t built for you.

The 3‑Minute Pivot Matrix Quiz

Grab a pen or notes app. Rate each statement 1 (never) to 5 (always).

A. Motivation check

  1. “I feel bothered after I scroll for too long.”
  2. “I genuinely want to cut unnecessary screen time.”
  3. “I often notice screens affecting my mood or productivity.”

Add the three numbers → Motivation score (A)

B. Confidence check

  1. “I know practical ways to curb my screen use.”
  2. “I trust myself to stick with digital balance goals.”
  3. “I have support or accountability if I slip.”

Add these three numbers → Confidence score (B)

Feeling fine can mask subtle tech damage. Blue light chips away at deep sleep, pings fracture focus for twenty three lost minutes, and silent phones on tables erode conversation depth.
