It sounds like your problem isn't getting the wrong products, your problem is tinkering with things. Buying Apple stuff isn't the answer here, the answer is to just not tinker if you don't need to.
- pvg 8y agoIt sounds like a really good answer born from experience and self-awareness. Your answer is 'don't buy stuff that mitigates your problem, undergo a corrective personality reconstruction instead'. This seems like a lot more work than just buying an iPad and getting on with your life.
- magduf 8y agoI don't see how you need to reconstruct your personality to avoid tinkering with things. Just don't do it. I'm a tinkerer too; all you have to do is realize that you have limited time and attention, and then consciously decide to focus your tinkering time on only specific projects, and ignore other ones. Make a priority list perhaps. This takes some willpower obviously, but it's no different than any other undertaking where you're deciding to make a change in your life and do something different (e.g., you decide you want to eat better, exercise more, try socializing more, act better towards people, etc.).
