| I do something similar. I switched my outlook on life a while back. I take somewhat Buddhist Lite approach to life and consider possessions as misery and so on. I extend that to online conversations. I just delete them and clear my history. I don’t feel everything I’ve ever written online, every message and every email should live online forever. It’s a mental burden that I don’t want. So I auto delete where I can. It’s cathartic. I think I started doing it during my burnout nervous breakdown phase after exiting corporate life. I found I’d write things on Slack and then delete them. The anxiety of having my thoughts out there weighed on me. Thoughts and conversations should be transient, I feel. Each to their own! :-) |
Folks, close your tabs. Close them all. Don't even check if they're important. They're not.
