My Guilty Pleasures: Confessing My Digital Distractions

in #hive-15166214 days ago

I have been found guilty of many things but today I will be sharing two things I have found myself guilty of any time I work. I am a technical writer, and most of my jobs are done from home. I would say I love my job but there are some things I do that hinder me from doing my job to the fullest of my capacity, two of these things are already becoming a habit that I am getting addicted to which needs to stop.

The truth is I find pleasure in them especially when I am tired or over-stressed from watching the screen for a long time. The first one is TIKTOK.

OMG, I plan to delete this app on my phone because it is a time and waste and data consumer. Why would I spend hours on TikTok without even realizing it, and I would battle with myself to close the app? Yes, TikTok is one of the apps I find pleasure in while lazing around my work. I could scroll all working hours on TikTok without realizing but I plan to uninstall the app for now to improve my discipline.

The other one is MOBILE GAME. One thing is that I don't have many games on my phone but the only game I have, I make sure it gets the attention it needs, and this game is no other game. The mighty "Call of Duty Mobile"

I know I am guilty of playing games when I am meant to work but the truth is that the game helps me with my stress level or so I tell myself. My sister complains I play the game too much but that's a lie, I only play it when I am eating, when I walk up, when I am not working, pause a movie to play, before going to bed. Yeah, only those times and she said I play the game too much. Ladies, sign.

Anyway, I am good at the game.

I know some of you might judge, but I have reduced the way I play the game, I stopped playing the game when I wanted to drink water or eat. As you can see, there is an improvement.

So, there is it. Those two are the digital things I am guilty of always doing even when I am meant to work, sleep, or do other things.

So please don't judge me
And I won't judge you
'Cause it could get ugly
Before it gets beautiful

Another call of duty player. It's how you people who play the game are so addicted to it. It doesn't seem like fun to me, but I know it's because it's not my kind of thing.
No difference between gamers and anime lovers. You watch anime too bad??😅

🤣🤣🤣
That’s the best combo for a guy if a girl is looking for one
He doesn’t have time to cheat
He is either playing game or watching movie
Besides it’s not addiction

So this woman king is still on hive
Longest time

Being involved in both things could never be a justification for cheating na, abi?
And, it's addiction jare. Nothing wan tell me🤣

Been a while, boss.

It’s nice to see your comment
Let me go and disturb you in the usual place

No one's judging you tiktok can be a real time consumer if not properly checked now that you know you have to check it maybe allocate a time to be spend and be disciplined towards it thanks for sharing

Yeah
One have to be very disciplined if they don’t want to waste away on TikTok

Growing up, I used to enjoy playing video games a lot. I had so many video games on my cell phone. Now, the only game on my phone is chess.
