Get over internet addiction:

I am going to discuss direct ways and some indirect ways to cope out with this addiction. Let's jump into the direct ways first.

The Direct Ways : 

Understanding the wide range of disadvantages of internet addiction can itself give you a boost to try and leave this addiction. And once you start to try there's a lot in your hand already. 

Replace-Remind-Focus It is always said to discard a lower consciousness, habit, replace it with a higher one. This can be the only way that can truly help you in coming out of this addiction from a long-term perspective. 

So, replace your habit, every now and then remind yourself of that higher consciousness and focus on that consciousness only. 

If still, you are not able to leave this habit then this indicates a lack of peace in your mind. For this, a daily dose of ten minutes of meditation can bring you that what many cannot. Try this and see the results on your own.

Now let's see the indirect ways for coping out with this addiction.

The Indirect Ways:

Manage your schedule: Give time to other hobbies that you love to be a part of and also fix a time slot for your phone/internet usage. Gradually decrease this time slot. This can help in some ways.

Turn off notifications: Whenever you try to take your mind away, notifications are something that drives your mind towards your phone again. So, turning off notifications can give you a big relief. 

Reduce sources: Delete/uninstall all those applications and games which attract take most of the time of your day.

Use applications to lock your mobile and other applications: You can find a bunch of applications that lock your mobile for a set period of time. These applications can help you in some ways. Or you can turn off your phone and either keep it away or hand it over to someone. 

Follow people who inspire you towards your work and unfollow all those who are a source of distraction. Manage your friend circle and wind up yourself only with those people who have the same career alignments as you. This will motivate you to focus on your ultimate aim and you will never know when your addiction time has converted into improvement time.

NOTE:

Direct ways are the only ways that can help you in a real sense, the indirect ways will just help you to come out of the addiction for a short term. For long-term benefits, the direct ways are only the ones that can work. 

I hope these tips will help you to get rid of your internet addiction. See you in my next blog. Till then goodbye and stay giggly.
