i came away with a similar sentiment after reading this blog, and it really articulated a similar notion in my head -- for me, wasting precious free time online, living through the success stories of fellow entrepreneurs.
- forbes 15y agoYeah, it is inevitable that we will do a little spectating. I got my insight into the pointlessness of watching spectator sports from watching Seinfeld, watching TV, another spectator activity. I still enjoy comedies and movies and they don't make me depressed like watching professional sport. I try to limit my time on sites like Hacker News for the same reason I try to limit my TV. Anytime I think of the masses of creative output of greats like Beethoven, Picasso, Edison I think to myself - "The amazing power of not watching TV for four hours a day."
