Digital Minimalism – A Book to Read

Certainly putting this book “Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport” on my book to read list. As Sam Crawford puts it:

In other words, we need time alone with our thoughts. It’s critical to our well-being. And technology is massively undermining our time alone with our own thoughts. The iPod arrived and many of us now live with headphones streaming music in our ears. The smartphone arrived and we can’t stop glancing at our screens. We don’t give ourselves a moment to be bored. We fill our minds with stuff non-stop. 

Sam Crawford

We need to take a break sometimes. Put ourselves to rest from digital disturbances. No screen. No headphones. Nothing. Easier said than done.
