How To Disable Facebook Newsfeed And Increase Productivity

- Good day there it's Pete Moriarty here.,And in this video, I'm going to cover how you can,save a bunch of time by disabling your Facebook newsfeed.,Now we're going to be covering both the mobile,and the desktop.,And first off, I'm going to tell you why it's so important,to make sure that you are productive online.,Now, we all know that it's important to manage our time,,but the reason it's so important is because we only get,a certain number of minutes and seconds in a day,,everyone's in the same playing field.,And we're basically stuck with a limited amount of time.,You can't buy more time, you can't create more time.,All we can do is choose how to spend our time.,And so getting good at choosing how you spend your time,,is going to be the thing that's going to help you be more,productive and also get better results in what you do.,Now today's reality of business is that with us wanting,to be thought leaders and us wanting to connect,with our customers as well, it's important,to have a social presence.,And so it's hard to just completely switch off and say, no,,I'm not going to participate in social media at all,,because that just doesn't really work.,You do need to have some kind of connection,,but if we have stronger boundaries with the way that we're,working, well then we're going to actually,have a better time and we're going to have more,chances of actually staying productive and being productive.,So I want to show you and tell you how to actually disable,the Facebook newsfeed.,And the advantage that that does is it takes away,the addictive qualities of Facebook.,It really takes away the part of Facebook that is the thing,that keeps bringing you back and can be,quite time consuming as well.,It's important to read your messages.,It's important to connect on notifications if you've been,tagged in something.,But I personally believe that moving away from the timeline,feature is the number one thing that's going to really,help you out to be more productive.,Now, why am I comfortable doing that?,You might be thinking, Pete,,aren't you miss out on updates from friends and family?,Are you going to miss someone, the baby being born?,Yeah, from time to time I have missed important events.,But what I've found is in over six years of having my,Facebook feed completely disabled,,that the important friends that I really care about keeping,in touch with,,I actually share precious moments with them via text message,or via message on messenger on WhatsApp.,And so I've got other ways of connecting with people,that are really important for me,,rather than scrolling through an endless timeline.,Now in the current economic situation that we're at,,every time I am, I try and, you know,,peek back into the timeline because yeah,,sure I do every couple of months from time to time,just to see what I'm missing.,I find that I'm not really missing that much.,I find myself feeling at the end of the day,,a little bit anxious, a little bit uncomfortable,,a little bit more down than I was,,or a little bit more scared about the world,than I was when I first unblocked it.,And so I'm really happy to just completely go cold turkey,and live without a newsfeed.,And I'm going to share how you can do that as well.,So first up on your computer, if you're using Google Chrome,,there is an amazing plugin called,kill the Facebook newsfeed.,And I'm going to drop a link to that right down below.,Now, once you install that plugin,,it removes the newsfeed from your Facebook.,Now in my testing, this only works the old,version of Facebook.,So if you've got like a new updated layout,,it may not work for you.,But what that does is it removes the newsfeed,scroll-able feature, but still lets you use,all the other features of Facebook.,So you can still use the messages.,You can still work with anything else that you need,to do on the Facebook, as long as your not looking,for the newsfeed, because it's completely gone.,Next up it's time to get rid of it on our mobile.,And what we're going to do there is unfortunately because,there's no timeline feature completely delete the app.,And yes, you might be wondering, well,,is it a good idea to delete the app?,I'm going to miss out on updates.,Well, if you've got the messenger app,and you've got the pages manager app,to manage your business page,,you shouldn't really need to spend too much time on Facebook,on your phone.,And what I found myself,,because I've got a bit of an addictive personality,is from time to time, I would actually go to Facebook,in the browser on my phone,,after I deleted the app just to check something.,And then I ended up getting stuck in the newsfeed as well.,So I'd recommend if you're using a Android phone or an iOS,device, you actually block the Facebook website,using the parental controls or one of the blocker apps,and actually completely block yourself from being able,to access it at all on your mobile phone.,And what that means is yes, it's a bit more inconvenient.,You have to jump onto an actual computer if you want to get,access to, you know, connecting to a Facebook event.,So once you've blocked the newsfeed on your phone,and on your computer, you can enjoy actually taking back,control of your time with Facebook.,And this is going to help you as a business owner,,spend more time either on your business or with your family,or doing the things that you love and keep you away,from the evils of Facebook addiction.,So if you'd like this tip and you're interested in more than,you may be interested in joining our free Facebook
