Abstain From Facebook Star this Commitment

ActiveAlli commits to:
I understand my role as a parent is a top priority and should take precedence above all other activities. Like most parents, I struggle with finding “me time,” or time to socialize, relax and engage in activities I enjoyed before becoming a parent. As a working, grad school parent of two young preschoolers, who are one year apart, the ability to spend time outside of the home is rare. Instead, I have turned to Facebook to fulfill a need for socialization. As pointed out by my husband, what beg

Last day without facebook. I was able to successfully abstain from Facebook and glad I was able to do so. I was able to spend more time with my kids and family. I like the increased level of privacy, where everyone doesn't know where I was and what my family has been up to. I was able to focus better on creating effective study techniques. Once I have finished this commitment, I plan to check facebook less frequently and keep a low level of facebook activity.

With my recent increase in work hours and the demand of potty training two toddlers at the same time, and subsequent decrease in gym or outside activities, I have been feeling more tempted to check facebook. I have, successfully, abstained from facebook but I have been missing it more than before. I know some gym time, or social activity will help, but with little available time to do so, I have been feeling lonely. I am hoping by managing my available time better, I can work in more time to go to the gym or to go for a horseback ride, which I know will decrease my desire to check facebook.

I have only felt the urge to check facebook once, but did not follow through. I recognized the desire and decided to engage in a DRI behavior of going for a walk at a near-by lake with my kids and leave my phone at home. I greatly enjoyed the quality time I had with my kids, and upon return, did not feel the urge to check facebook.
