The book of do-ness

Tired of looking at your screen? Well, get off your butt and DO something! We spend so many hours a day behind screens. We watch TV, play games, scroll through timelines on our social media pages, or ask Google the weirdest questions. We might sometimes forget how it feels to actually DO things! And that's where this book comes in. 'The Book of Do-ness' is a funny, practical and (un)useful guide for all the people out there who feel the urge to spend less time in the digital realms but who need a little nudge in the right direction. 

The last decade has brought unprecedented change. We've entered the Digital Age. New products are released every day. It's become unthinkable to live without our digital equip¬ment. Which is a good thing! We can enter¬tain 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. We spend so many hours a day behind a screen that we almost forget what it's like to actually DO things. 

With these two hundred and thirty four and a half ideas you'll never get bored, and hope¬fully 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 using it...
