Have you ever stopped working to check Facebook for “just a second” and found yourself still surfing the web an hour (and seven cat videos) later? You aren’t alone. One reason the internet can feel so addictive is its lack of boundaries and structure. You start by looking up one fact, which leads to an inquiry about another, which links to another. While you can train your willpower to be stronger, it’s a limited resource. Staying on-task while the entirety of the internet is at your fingertips can exhaust your reservoir of self-control. Do you have a strategy for limiting your internet time so you can focus, or do you surf with abandon? Share this post with friends, and let us know in the comments.
