Now that's a good idea. I've read something similar about procrastination, about doing the things that matter.
The idea was to completely stop the input for a week - to not take in any information, no matter the source or form it came under - and observe how things changed.
The guy doing the experiment wrote that he did a lot more things when he stopped reading and taking in all that information. And we have to admit, information is almost infinite these days. There's so much going on these days and if we try to absorb everything, we're going to end up doing nothing. Not to mention the energy our brains consume with processing all that information. Energy that we could consume creating.
Thanks for the good post and for reminding me about this idea. ;)
Btw, my favorite output mediums are writing and photography.
