Easily Allowing and Forbidding Distractions on OS X macOS

Facebook and Instagram are better than television and like any good thing it is nice to have a break. Real televisions have an on/off switch but computers don’t really. Technical folks: here is one way to make it easy to give your OS X macOS box an on/off switch for your social sites: 

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# -*- mode: sh; -*-
if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
    sudo cp /etc/hosts.distractions /etc/hosts
    printf "...forbidding distractions.\n"
else
    sudo cp /etc/hosts.org /etc/hosts
    printf "...allowing distractions.\n"
fi

  • Non-judgment
    • when we assign value positively to when we or others need help
  • Generosity
    • take whatever words I say in the most positive kind accepting manner. Learn to make generous positive assumptions about what others say or believe.
  • Common Enemy to Intimacy
    • sharing negative gossip about others.
  • Self-trust
    • Can you count on yourself?
  • “Follow your curiosity
    • This is much easier than following your passion.
  • Curiosity is always gentle and available.“ – Elizabeth Gilbert
