Spending less time on social media sites have proven to be beneficial for me. Last month I was going for once a week. Now, this may not sound like a whole lot, but given that I was on social media every day for hours upon end, this was big for me. When I was taking time off, I found that I not only got more things accomplished, but I felt better mentally. Everywhere I look these days there is gloom and doom and it weighs me down mentally. It makes it hard for me to be motivated about anything. So not having that thrown in my face every now and then is a good thing. This month, I am doing once every 6 days. Still, may not sound like much but let me tell you, it is. And next month, I will increase that.
When I say social media, I am referring to sites like Facebook. Places where I have profiles. Places where the evils of the world are major topics of articles, videos, etc. I still check my email. I still do my personal blog. And it's amazing to me how much time I shave off of my computer time when this is all that I do. It's very freeing. So far, it has truly been good for me and I will continue it for as long as I can. That is all.
