Be Anti-Social

Say what?

I know, the Social Media contributor telling you to be anti-social!? What is this all about?!

It’s easy.  While there’s tons out there to support the idea that social media increases productivity and learning, sometimes it’s important to tune out the noise (especially if you’re easily distracted) and focus on the task at hand.

It’s tough to buckle down and get schoolwork done when you have family, work, life in general going on in the background. Sometimes the addition of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, chat, etc. just complicates things too much.

Try unplugging for an hour or two a day to give yourself some time to really tune into your studies.  This way, when you plug back in, it serves as a nice reward!
