Addictedtoo's Daily Journal

[addictedtoo]

Hello everyone, over the next few days I will be spending more time on this site as I try to correct my bad habits. For me, those bad habits are: 

• Gaming all day.
• Mindlessly browsing the web.

Now that I will have lots of free time I hope to:

• Meditate daily
• Draw
• Read
• Get into photography
• Exercise and workout
• Learn to program
• Learn to play the piano
• Learn foreign languages

DAY

#01 

Have done list:

• Deleted my Steam accounts (did this quite a while ago but it had little effect on my gaming since most games had their own launcher)
• Uninstalled all games (Heroes and Generals, World of Tanks... and the rest)
• Deleted my video game acocunts
• Configured 'Cold Turkey Blocker' to block distracting websites so that I cannot browse sites mindlessly (although I can still access them, when necessary, using my search engine's built-in proxy)
• Bought a used camera and lens (Nikon D5300 for £200, lens was £80)
• Set my computer to automatically lock me out after 10pm so that I no longer have late night gaming/browsing sessions
• Blocked internet access to my smart TV
• Added page loading delays for this site, gmail and some others so that I'm no longer checking them continuously.

DAY 02

All went well yesterday; my internet use was mindful and I did not touch video games. I worked 10 hours, so not having much free time probably helped.
