I try to identify and break hedonistic loops. Changing environment helps, even if it's such a simple act as shuffle the furniture at home around. Another way is to optimize away loops. The first example that pops ups is that I was at one point manually visiting >20 news-sites, webcomics and blogs, and when I'd reached the last one, I started checking if the other ones had updated while I was reading. RSS saved me from most of that. Now if I could only drop reddit and hackernews ;) Oh, and this is the home page firefox shows when I open it: http://phylab.mtu.edu/~nckelley/Focus/ http://phylab.mtu.edu/~nckelley/Focus/
