Strengthen the Signal
I thoroughly enjoyed this post by Diana Kimball about changing her life from loving the internet for the serendipity of vast information flow to high fi well thoughtout information in books, music and entertainment. Moving from noise to signal.
I have been thinking about doing this myself for a while but still do not know how I am going to execute it. The lure of RSS, Facebook, and Gmail are always pulling at me all the time while stacks of books and unfinished projects lay on the side. I believe in creating systems and have experimented in blocking out what I can access online and channeling my free time towards higher pursuits but long lasting habits have not formed yet. I guess I need continual reminder of what my goals are to solidify new habits at this stage. We’ll see how things go 60 days from now.
