 |  30-Day Challenge - Reduce Computer Time
I've been spending way too much time on the computer. So, I'm making a habit so that I can reduce my time on the computer. Jun 18-Jul 18 2009 Jun 18 2009: 8:30AM-11:00AM 2 hours & 30 minutes 11:28-11:30AM 2 hours & 32 minutes 1:00PM-3:30PM 5 hours & 2 minutes 4:00PM-6:00PM 7 hours & 2 minutes 7:00PM-8:30PM 8 hours & 32 minutes Aww, rats! I'll try to reduce it to 7 hours instead. |

One application that may be usefull for monitoring this is RescueTime , that way you get the exact information. (It seems to have a free and a paid version now, when I used it a few months ago it was still in beta and completely free, so not sure of the feature differences) |

As I was reading the posts about reducing computer time, it occurred to me that I have no real idea of how many hours I am on my computer daily. Now I know it's a lot, but I think just as a start I am going to monitor how much time is spent and doing what, because I think that's important for me to know to get a realistic view of where my time and energy is spent. I wish you well on the reduction of your time on the computer.  |

It's all you're writing about. You're even being obsessive about it - by writing down the exact number of minutes. It's all you're focusing on. And it's all we see. How about writing a little about hanging out with your friends and what you did, and about your favorite book, and about your studies... | |
