I made a conscious decision a few months ago to decrease the number of online articles I read. I realized that I wasn&#x27;t finishing most of them (and most people don&#x27;t) and if I wasn&#x27;t learning any relevant to me then they were basically trivia.<p>I&#x27;ve concentrated more on slimming down my book shelves by getting to all of those books that I always wanted to. I&#x27;m finding them more  illuminating and enjoyable than any short article. I find them more likely to change my viewpoint than any catchy article could because someone dedicated months, if not years, to put their work out there.<p>As far as finding time, unless you&#x27;re busy from when you wake up into when your head is back on the pillow you can find time for what you feel is important enough. For me I&#x27;ve cut scrolling through articles and social media for something more substantial.
