Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport

4.0

i devoured this book. it really make me think about my social media use, especially as I know I’ve been using it waaaay too much to cope with pandemic loneliness. Needless to say, after I finished this book I deleted all social media from my phone, and created a “Later” account to maintain my professional art instagram. Going forward, I will try to limit checking my personal IG account on the web only and even then limiting it to 1-2 times a week. I am definitely going to try to implement more face to face time — even if it’s just facetime / zoom calls.

more “high-quality leisure” is what I’ve been trying to integrate into my life, and this book really helped me see the path.
