If you commute by train it’s not all necessarily wasted time. You can read, play games, listen to podcasts, etc. I always read many more books when I commuted

I always read many more books when I commuted than when I didn’t commute. I find myself making new year’s resolutions to read more. But it was easy when I had the commute as a forcing function. (Not having internet on the subway probably helped...)
- Swizec 8y agoIf you don’t think reading books is valuable enough to do when you aren’t commuting, is it really valuable to you? Or are you just doing the best you can to salvage a shitty situation? (I audiobook when running so I’m no better)
- iainmerrick 8y agoI think it is valuable, I’m just bad at organising and prioritising my spare time!
- murph-almighty 8y agoI always find other more pertinent/alarming things I need to do at home and the forced lack of internet makes me focus more than I normally would. Admittedly this doesn't say great things about my attention span...
