Wasting Time? New App Gives You Self Control!

Posted on June 9th, 2009 by Urbain


We are wired for novelty, says a psychologist who helps people with procrastination.  Because of its constantly new information, that’s why the Internet can be such a distraction.

Regardless of whether we’re wired for wasting time online or not, companies say that they lose billions of dollars every year because the average employee spends at least two hours a day on non-work related sites.

All of us who work with computers know how easy it is to waste time online.  We might visit a forum, YouTube or Myspace with the intent to check things out for a few minutes but before we know it, a whole hour or two has gone by and we have accomplished nothing.

Now, finally there’s a cure that thousands of people are downloading: an application called Self Control that helps you stop wasting precious time in cyberspace.  I’ve just downloaded a copy and will try it out.   It’s free.
