The outcome of my Walden plan was great. I thought i couldn’t live without playing video games, but i proved myself wrong. Giving up my rut has made a positive effect on  my life. I am able to concentrate more on my academics. Ever since i stopped playing video games i have been doing things that are more productive. I have been spending more time with my family, and having a lot of conversations with them. Instead of playing NBA2k13 on my xbox 360 i am going outside to play basketball. I am happy to have experienced this, because i got to learn that i could do a lot of things to entertain my self instead of playing video games. I got to spend quality time with my family which i usually don’t do, because i was to busy playing video games. My life was completely simplified, i learned that i could be happy without having video games in my life. I want to have a life that is meaningful like Thoreau “i wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life”.
