How I did it: I was spending a lot of time writing status updates on twitter and facebook, playing those dumb inane quizzes to the extent that I had started to think of events happening around me as how they would make my next status. Then it was time to stop. I just wanted to take this time off to set my priorities right & spend my online time in something constructive like researching for dance classes and need I say how fruitful that was. Sometimes, I had this itch to log in once & see if anyone missed me at all. Then I realised how it would mean that I totally suck, So I had a blast this week and I didn't make any status updates about those. And I think I'll be doing this now one week every month.

Lessons & tips: Decide and do it. For a week forget about twitter, facebook, your IM clients,, and use your time on something you have wanted to do but couldn't coz you were busy chatting. It'll be worth it.

Resources: My will power and 43 things. I discovered it again the day I had this goal and The time spent here was totally worth it.
