Only check my facebook once a day

1. I may check Facebook once a day, but for a maximum duration of 15 minutes per day (a day being 00:00 – 23:59, regardless of erratic sleep patterns)
2. No idle browsing; only responding to communications appropriately, or checking specific things.
3. This has to be maintained for a complete month: from tomorrow (29th October) throughout November (i.e., until 1st December). By then I’ll have progressed from habitual checking.

I know I have an addictive personality, even when it comes to a stupid little thing like Facebook, since I had a Facebook account last year and felt the need to quit cold turkey, deleting the account in March.

When I got out here to Amsterdam, I suddenly made a wave of new friends, and everyone else was signing up to the site, so I reapplied with my Dutch email address. Then I went through the process of adding my closest friends from home (who’d been on my old account) and my new friends, only for the same checking-Facebook-compulsions to start again.

Rather than quitting again (only to inevitably rejoin; there’s no denying it’s a damn useful communicational tool…yeah), I’ll simply LIMIT MYSELF. If I have any self-control at all, this goal should be a cakewalk.
