stop wasting time online

If I added up all the time I’ve wasted on the internet, video games, and crossword puzzles in my life, I would have had enough time to learn another language or several, play piano, and write a few novels.

I think my plan of attack will be to pre-determine when I can use the internet. I think it will be okay to peruse the news and check my email while I’m eating alone (but only for those few minutes, no longer!) and to allow myself a few minutes to look at 43things each and Facebook a couple times a week. Otherwise I just kind of addicted and stay on even though I’m not doing anything productive or even enjoying myself. I think it has something to do with my ADHD, like my brain is somewhat stimulated by the constant change and wants to stay where it is.
