I'm going to go 1 month without playing games and I'm going to see how my productivity increases. Lately I've only been playing games for 2 hours at the end of the day right before bed and I've noticed I've got so much more shit done. I'm going to completely stop and see what happens. I might even sell my gaming PC and use that money to join an MMA gym. Thoughts?

>I can't control myself
Good thing you are a nerd with no addictions, you would be dead by now, or at least sucking dicks.

That's not the point. Gaming is a counter productive hobby, a waste of time and energy, and doesn't benefit you what so ever in the real world.
Gavin James
This is why people do this mentally challenged no fap shit? To see if productivity increases? How fucking retarded are humans?
Henry Hall
That doesn't change the fact that you can't control yourself.
>and doesn't benefit you what so ever in the real world. Dumbest shit I've heard in a while. Maybe youre just doing it wrong.

>go without games and Sup Forums >just end up fapping all day I really need to stop working from home

So is alcohol, television, and several other things. Time you spend enjoying yourself is not time wasted.
Ryder Miller
pretty sure the time spent enjoying alcohol is always time wasted

all not playing video games does is give me more time to shitpost and I honestly prefer video games most of the time

the real killer of productivity is not the time you spend doing things that are "unproductive", but the time you spend in between activities doing nothing. Down time created by a lack of certainty, lack of motivation, procrastination, indecision etc. Instances like the time between waking up and actually getting up where you're just lying in bed, sitting on the couch but haven't actually put something of substance on the TV yet, deciding what to wear, you need to plan shit ahead of time and go from one activity to the next with immediacy.

It does benefit me because it makes me happy.

I try to force myself to play dominions after work but I just can't be bothered I'd rather just watch stupid YouTube videos or browse Sup Forums I rarely come to this board as a result
Nice blog thread tho

>/no fap/ >not realizing that, as a biological need, there's an upper limit on sexual gratification's ability to influence and compulse you >not understanding that a skinner box runs most efficiently when it's a unnecessary but desirable reward it's impossible to have enough of, like money >attempting to increase productivity by removing things instead of setting up an artificial reward system to compulse you to do productive things

enjoy your placebo effect
Julian Richardson
>placebo effect >when you're dealing with something with purely external results unrelated to your biological health
If the placebo effect leads him to be more productive it's effectively worked and benefitted him on a practical level.

that only made me browse this shithole more loosers gonna loose

>Stop playing games in my spare time, start making game instead >It's coming along quite well As someone on the other side of what you're about to do I wholly recommend it, especially if there's not really anything you want to play and it's just a matter of having nothing better to do. I probably will play Deus Ex Mankind Divided when it comes out, but other than that there's not a lot that interests me right now. Rate my shit taste etc

nearly everyone does /nogames/ on Sup Forums and yet we're not productive
