Nowadays life is fulfilled in abundant amounts of
technologies that take us away from the real life itself. Cell phones,
computers have become tools for people to get the overwhelming information
about what is going on in the world. An inseparable part of this development in
technologies is the merging of social networking sites, without which most of
the people can hardly imagine their lives going on.
Users of Facebook spend an enormous amount of time being
online, which results in things still waiting to be done, work unfinished and
isolation from family, friends. You may think that it's a means of learning,
finding useful information for life, and at least keeping in touch with friends
that you can hardly manage to see even once a month.
The article is not about how to give up Facebook, but how
to use it in an adequate way. It's said wisely, that everything is good in
measures; meaning that too much of everything will result in undesirable
consequences. Hence, you should make the site a tool for you to get all the
daily need for communication or the information, and not to the site to make
you a tool in itself.
1. Limit and fix a certain time you are supposed to spend
on Facebook. For example, if you do activities like chatting, sharing, posting
for 2 hours a day, just cut it for one hour for a week. Next week it will be 30
minutes, and gradually minimizing the time spent on it.
2. You have got your Facebook app on your cell phone;
isn't it wise to get rid of it in order to put aside all those alarming moments
when you are waiting someone to answer you back? The mind is always busy with
getting messages every moment; you are sitting with your beloved a message
received, and you are sorry just to check it, even if you know that you are not
waiting for any special one.
3. Facebook page open and minimized, while you are
working. Have you tried to do your work without your profile logged in? If not,
it's the high time to think about it and compare the quickness and the quality
of the work done when Facebook free. You need to promise yourself that as soon
as the work is finished, you are going to have a quick check on it. This will
save you the accusing thought towards you, when you still are going on and on
being online.
4. It's always amazing to talk to friends, relatives,
even if when it's all about chat. But think about holding real conversations and looking into
each others eyes, as most often those with whom we chat, are people living in
the nearby neighborhood. Make it your habit to meet them and talk just face to
face.
5. Have you ever thought to have some private corner of
your life? Do you think it is necessary for all the Facebook inhabitants to
know what is going in your private life, what's your favorite underwear, or
where and with whom you had a coffee an hour before? So, keep people interested
in you, don't go first to open everything about you.
6. Find out the impacts of your habit. The steps to undertake in order to get rid of
your Facebook habit are worthless, if you still do not realize and put down on
the paper, how it impacts on your everyday life. It's just a habit and habits
do change if one really wants.
