I like the idea of unplugging one day a week. Although, I think for myself, it's more like unplug for a few hours each night, or just plug in one thing at a time - not everything all at once. Great ideas for making more time for other things - especially just for some time to realize there are "other things." :0) Nice post Ravi. I like the idea of unplugging one day a week.

Great ideas for making more time for other things - especially just for some time to realize there are “other things.” :0)

I agree it's difficult to sever the ties, especially as we become more dependent on our computers. But just think, what would you do with a day where you couldn't use a computer? <b>Lau</b> - I haven't heard of the Bryan Photography contest, what is it? Thanks for adding me! <b>Tom</b> - You're absolutely right. Almost makes me wonder if we'd have more DaVinci's and Aristotle's today if we didn't have so many distractions. <b>Nestor</b> - Just for a day, just try it. If your thoughts are still too scary, then they're probably ripe for creating things! Paula - Great, I’m glad to hear you’re already on the right track!

It's only recently (relatively speaking) that all these distracting (albeit useful) devices have come about. Today, we cram so much entertainment and diversions that we leave little time to think and create on our own. Think back to just 150-200 years ago, society was much different; the bombardment of distractions we have didn't exist. People had more "free time" to think. Whether the general population took advantage of the time, who knows, but many great thinkers have emerged throughout the centuries because they took the time to think and ponder about questions and challenges. Thanks for the reminder to take some time to use our brains to generate thought rather than just receive it through our many devices and communication networks.
