I would like to read the last 10 books I bought none of which I finished and only a couple of which I've started. Instead I find myself scrolling hacker news and Twitter.

But at least I'm not on Facebook and Instagram!

Twitter isn’t really better than Facebook, it’s short content designed to provoke an emotional reaction. HN really isn't either, although the emotional reactions here are a lot fewer and far between.

Pick up the book on the top of the stack and read the first chapter right now. You’ll be happy you did!

One formula that works well for me is audiobooks + jogging. There's really no escape from the book for the next 30-45 minutes.
