Can anyone help me with this?
I feel like I’ve lost a lot of productivity to the internet.
This shit is worse than meth.
I’ve been mostly productive online, in that I spent most of my online time doing research, debating people, looking at news articles, etc. I think the biggest time waster for me was Facebook and I deleted it recently.
I installed the stay focused program on my Google chrome. .
I do like the fact that stay focused has a nuke option. I can block all websites for a period and get focused on creative/intellectual projects.
Sadly internet explorer still makes an appearance from time to time
I am trying to limit my web browsing to thirty minutes a day max. There are times that I am doing research so I’ll push it up to an hour or two in regards to finding links for blog posts, career opportunities, job applications/searches, documentaries, etc.
Also, now that I have a smartphone, it hasn’t got any easier to wean off the internet now that I have it readily available in my pocket.
Ah well, anyone had any success with their internet addiction? I really wouldn’t mind going back to the days when I wasn’t so connected. I reckon pulling out a book while I’m waiting in line at the bank instead of my smartphone would serve me well in the near future.
Anything that can stop the mindless browsing is a step in the right direction.
