It has never been easier to rebel against mainstream culture. Here are some ways…
- Go for a walk with no earbuds or phone
- Read a book with no other “media” “interacting” with you
- Turn of all the notifications on your smart phone
- Watch a movie on a proper TV without scrolling on your phone
- Buy a magazine and read it
- When you are standing in line somewhere, just stand there and breath and watch what’s going on rather than reaching for your phone
- Refuse to us AI for anything
- Spend a day with no social media
- Spend a day using no computer technology
- Sit down at your table with paper and some pencils and draw a picture on actual paper
- Write in a journal/notebook that no one else will read
- Go to a concert and don’t take any video or pictures – just enjoy it and your memory of it
- Have a personal website/blog that is not connected to any social media in any way – maybe just a “reply to” email address
- Write long-form articles on that blog rather than just a couple of lines – force people to read
- Call someone and talk to them rather than texting
This list could just go on and on…
