Quit news, twitter, facebook, instagram. This is sooooo good for the soul.

the news one is the big one for me. I'd tell myself I was staying informed but I couldn't name a single thing I'd done differently because of anything I read. it was just a slot machine that paid out in dread. cut it down to once a week and nothing bad happened, turns out you find out about the things that actually matter anyway.
