Tips To Break Your Online Addiction: Read A Book

Randy Murray:

Plan a time, every day, to read. During this time you will silence your phone, step away from your computer, and only read. I’d recommend at least an hour a day, but make it a minimum of thirty minutes. Just read. Don’t stop and check your email or Twitter. If you are reading on your portable device, don’t switch out during your reading time to check other apps. Just read.

Sound advice that I need to take note of. If, like me, you always leave your reading to the final hour of the day, then there’s a chance, like me, that you fall asleep way before your allocated time is up. You need to allocate it somewhere else.
