I agree and saying "not a priority" instead of "don't have time" helps with that too. "Sorry reading books is not a priority" Wait ... then what is a priority

Wait ... then what is a priority? Social media? Screw that!!
And it prompts you to [try to] do better with your time.
Remember when we used to read books a few pages at a time on the pooper instead of scrolling through twitter or hackernews? Good times.
- jm__87 8y agoHaha yeah, absolutely. I've limited my social media use to HN only for a while now (mainly because I feel it is one of the few sites left where you can just have a civil discussion without things getting too political) and I feel I'm significantly happier and more productive now than I was a few years ago. Of course many other things have changed in that timeframe, but I don't really ever see myself using Facebook or other popular social media again. Quitting all that is quite liberating.
