Yesterday, I tried to dissect my last week and figure out why I was able to get so little accomplished. It didn’t take much reflection to recognize that my problem is that I spend way too much time on the internet.
My solution was to turn off my computer and not turn it back on again until after dinner today, with the self imposed injunction that it would be turned off again at 21:00. So far, after only one day’s implementation this has worked well. Unfortunately, I don’t trust my self to be disciplined enough to both remember and maintain this time limit.
Fortunately I thought of a clever solution. I’ll just get an outlet timer. So I popped onto Amazon, did a little Googling and started shopping to find one. It was then that it struck me: I was shopping online for a device to help me stop spending so much time online. Something is wrong with me.
I admit I was amused, but I also know you are serious. It’s good you notice things like that. I hope you figure out a way to time things…
It’s good that you’re trying to cut back on computer time. I found myself spending way too much time online while I was in Centralia and now that I’m home, I’m trying to find more useful things to do with my time. Such as hanging out with Madie and Zeezers.
