Deleting Instead of Adding
"Delete an app a day" -my new idea
We are always adding things to our lives. We add projects that will never get completed. We add people and then we do not keep in touch. We add and add.
One of the things that we quickly and painlessly add is new apps. We see an ad or get a recommendation and pretty soon we just hit download. But no different than projects and people, we never use it. Even though we thought the app was great we simply never open it.
So I have been thinking. Maybe we should get rid of an app pet day. Probably for many apps this will not cause us pain. But after many days we will reach a point where it will cause us pain. The pain I am talking about it the mental pain of not wanting to get rid of it.
I believe that this deletion process will help us get clarity as to what we truly use or not use. Maybe all of the tools are not the right tool for us. Or maybe we have outgrown them.
Today's question is
"Could you delete an app a day on your smart phone?"
