This article rings true to me.
I find I’ve become addicted to the thrill of email. I check mine way too much.
I got a Blackberry two years ago so I could check my email anywhere.
I have friends who spend hours a day on Facebook, creating fake profiles so they can track the ex-girlfriends of their boyfriend.
What saves me is the Sabbath when I turn off my computer and cell phone.
Alexander Technique also helps me to be more present. And therapy. And good friends. When I’m with them, I don’t yearn so much to check my email.
I grew up a Seventh-Day Adventist, where I got lots of warnings about the distracting and negative power of television and rock music.
