Today I’ve decided to put a stop on the ‘Variable Reinforcement Machine’ effect.
For quite some time, it was making me feel like a rat, constantly looking for another dopamine hit.
Action plan
I’ve deleted accounts for:
- Google+
- Google analytics
Smartphone
Every time I am outside and I have more than 5 seconds of idle time I will usually pull out my phone, hunch over it and check news that I don’t really care about.
I’ve removed:
- Mail, facebook & twitter clients
- Trash news portals
My online presence
- Gmail
- Rubygems
- Github
- This blog
I am writing this post just to prevent chickening out of this ‘revolution’.
Now that I think about it, there is a problem - no one will know this since I can’t tweet about it.
At least I am free :) this is what freedom looks like.
