Focusing your attention on television, movies, video games, and <a href="https://nosidebar.com/digital-minimalism/">technology affects your life more than you think</a>. The media rearranges your values. It begins to dominate your life. And it has a profound impact on your attitude and outlook. The only way to fully appreciate its influence in your life is to turn them off.

Your Screen Time

If debt is holding you captive, reduce it. Start today. Do what you’ve got to do to get out from under its weight. Find the help that you need. Sacrifice luxury today to enjoy freedom tomorrow.

Your Debt

Most of us have filled our days full from beginning to end with time commitments: work, home, kid’s activities, community events, religious endeavors, hobbies… the list goes on. Release yourself from the time commitments that are not in line with your greatest values.

Your Time Commitments 

Use fewer words. Keep your speech plain and honest. Mean what you say. Avoid gossip.

Your Words

Research indicates that multi-tasking increases stress and lowers productivity. While single-tasking is becoming a lost art, learn it. Handle one task at a time. Do it well. And when it is complete, move to the next.

Your Multi-Tasking

Too many material possessions complicate our lives to a greater degree than we ever give them credit. They drain our bank account, our energy, and our attention.Invest the time to remove nonessential possessions from your life.

Your Possessions

Resentment, bitterness, hate, and jealousy have never improved the quality of life for a single human being. <div>Take responsibility for your mind. Forgive past hurts and replace negative thoughts with positive ones.</div>

Your Negative Thoughts

Relationships with others are good, but constant streams of distraction are bad. Learn when to power off the blackberry, log off Facebook, or not read a text. Focus on the important, not the urgent. A steady flow of distractions from other people may make us feel important, needed, or wanted, but feeling important and accomplishing importance are completely different things.

Your Connections to the World

Reduce the number of goals you are intentionally striving for in your life to one or two. You will improve your focus and your success rate. Make a list of the things that you want to accomplish in your life and choose the two most important. When you finish one, add another from your list.

Your Goals

When we begin to live simply and experience these benefits, we begin to ask the next question, "Where else in my life can i remove distraction and simply focus on the essential?"
