I visited San Francisco in June 2013 and worked at an office for a month. I had a habit of browsing HN and Twitter during the working hours and from the work computer. I was also very productive. Always got things done. Days go by and I observe people working. I realized that many people would spend time on social media only when they were having lunch and were extremely productive the rest of the day. I thought to myself “If I am working then what these people are doing and if they are working then what is it that I am doing?”

I seriously questioned myself and made a decision. No more social media on the work computer and during the working hours. Ever since then I am only reading HN and Twitter when I am on my phone when I am on a break. I haven’t even realized HN was down.
