The near end of my Low Information Diet

Nearly over, it has been a partial success. I’ve managed to reduce the amount of time I spend checking my emails and browsing news sources. My anxiety levels of staying in the “loop” are decidedly down. The world hasn’t fall apart and zombies haven’t risen either. However, I have come to the conclusion that I tap into my information networks whenever I get bored with my current computer related activity. It’s an unconscious action I do to kill time and distract myself.

After thinking about it, I can removed most sources of anxiety from my life.  For example, my current work is uninteresting so I play the email game while I work to pass the time. Stress goes up as a result. So, my ideal solution is to find more interesting work preferably one that doesn’t require me to work on a computer eight hours a day. I also need to find more activities to do in my free time, like rocket roller skating or jell-o pool jumping. Well, not those. I made them up but the point still stands. I could be more productive, work less and spend my time doing more interesting things than reading email and reddit.
