@Dathan Nunn Great stuff!! Don't diminish it, you're taking control of your time. That's powerful. Check out the book, The One Thing. It's about positive habit formation and habit stacking. Check the website too.
@Dathan Nunn Sounds great and all positive. Just a thought, get an accountability partner to keep you on track, or if you have a bit of a stumble along the way. When are you starting?
I have told my plans to friends and they are all for it! They say they won’t let me fail.
Starting today, no more time wasting/lack of substance things like Snapchat, unfollow all senseless accounts on Instagram and Facebook, and follow more informative, positive accounts!
Doesn’t sound like a lot, but the amount of time I catch myself wasting scrolling through thousands and thousands of useless posts, is appalling. Need to cut out that bad habit before it becomes a serious issue!

Sounds like an awesome goal! Goodluck and be sure to let us know how it goes! This will no doubt help you be more productive and focused on real estate or anything you’re pursuing.
@Sarah West thanks for checking! It’s been going great! Got a meeting with a realtor to go over selling my flip finally, after 15 months of hard labour into it.
Called my bank about getting the next deal approved, so cross my fingers everything goes to plan and I can move onto the next deal!
Now I’m not sure how much the lack of social media helped me, but I know for sure it didn’t hurt!
Spent way more time listening to podcasts and burned up a ton of hours on audible! Just finished grant cardones 10x rule today.
I like the idea of using forums like BP as a substitute for social media. I only use Instagram, I cleared it off useless things a while ago, but still find myself wasting time on there even though I find useful information to save occasionally. Something like Bigger Pockets has so much real world application and networking potential, the ROI of time spent on here is dramatically higher.
Spending more time on here organically cultivating relationships is an idea of mine I’ve had for about a year and haven’t stuck to. Wish I could call it a goal. Just being honest. This lost may be what kicks me ink gear to start moving towards accomplishing it. I’m going to keep checking in, hope you’re seeing some results from doing it so far 👏🏼
@George Griffeth it’s worth a shot! My worst one was Snapchat, you don’t realize when you’re in it, but it’s such a useless app and can take up so much time and attention.
Instagram is such a contradiction though because it can be useful, yet it’s not hard to get lost in scrolling things that kill production.
