Description

Tired of looking at your screen? Well get off your ass and DO something! We re spending so many hours a day watching TV, gaming, scrolling through timelines on social media and asking Google the weirdest questions. We ve almost forgotten what it s like to actually DO things. And that s where this book comes in. 'The Book of Do-ness' is a very funny, practical and (un)useful guide for all the people out there who have the urge to spend less time being digital but who need a little nudge in the right direction.

The last decade has seen great change. We ve entered the Digital Age. New products are released every day. It s become unthinkable to live without our digital equipment. And that s a good thing! We can entertain ourselves and communicate in so many more and exciting ways. It has made our lives easier, more fun and even more social.

But there s a downside. Nowadays, we spend way too many hours a day behind a screen. This book is written for all the people who would like to spend less time digitally, but need that little bit of help in finding new ideas to do so. With these ideas you ll never get bored, and hopefully it will train your ability to think a little differently when it comes to DOing things. It s easy and fun, and you might even become more sociable after reading it
