Productivity without Internet Connectivity

      So as the school year ends, I was reviewing some of the things that were good and some of the things I'm going to not do next year. One of those things was being on the internet too much, and as time went by I got addicted. I would almost never get my homework done on time and I wouldn't be doing anything else, and going out seemed dumb compared to being on the internet. I started to realize this in the past month, so I shut my internet down. In that time, I was ten times more productive, more interested in doing other things and reading books, and getting a lot better grades. For me, it's bittersweet because I have a lot of friends that I can only talk to online, and otherwise, I have no connection to. It was the decision of friends or good grades, which was hard for me. I've learned that I need to make sure I have my priorities straight and that I'm making wise decisions during the school year. Going through everything has definitely been interesting, but at the same time, I don't think I would've had it any other way.
