The time commitment is not as bad as people make it seem. You don't have two hours to yourself every night? How about 1 hour during the week and doing 2-3 on weekends?
You just have to sacrifice other leisures like tv and video games to make it work.
- Reedx 8y agoExactly. Most people who say they "don't have time" are spending hours/day watching TV, on social media, etc. https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/insights/news/2018/time-flies-us-adults-now-spend-nearly-half-a-day-interacting-with-media.html https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/insights/news/2018/time-flies-...
- ceejayoz 8y agoIt's not necessarily fair to read those charts that way. The radio time could be while commuting to/from work. Quite a few folks have TV on in the kitchen while they prepare dinner. Social media time is frequently a minute or two at a time scattered throughout the day. etc. etc. etc. The chart even indicates "Some amount of simultaneous usage may occur across devices".
- Reedx 8y agoRight, there are exceptions, but let's be real. "I don't have time" usually means "It's not a priority over TV/games/social media".
