In short: he made a rule for himself: no internet before bed and up until after the lunch.
It sounds simple but it's already more than most of us were ready to accept.

- danudey 10y agoThat sounds fascinating, but as someone who works in IT I feel as though refusing to use the internet until lunch would probably get me fired pretty fast.
- quest88 10y agoI'm in the same boat so I've altered the rules a bit: 1) No Internet until work 2) Non-work related internet things wait until after lunch (no checking the news, hackernews, twitter, etc. until after lunch).
- iopq 10y agowhen I used to work as a developer I didn't get any work-related things done before lunch ever
- tonyedgecombe 10y agoThat's funny, I don't really get any work related things done after lunch.
- s_kilk 10y agoI draw a distinction between "The Internet" and "Internetting". The former is the wonderful tool and repository of knowledge, the latter is basically dicking-around-on-reddit. I can use "The Internet" whenever I need to, but "Internetting" as a pass-time is severely restricted.
- gvd 10y agoI feel like I sleep better when I'm backpacking. Even though I sleep less comfortable without my own bed, and I might even wake up during the night, I feel much more refreshed in the morning (5:30am). Of-course I sleep before 9pm and am exercising during the day. But just the fact that I have nothing to worry about or think about helps a lot.
