Screens coupled with ADHD ruined my attention span. Being a software engineer doesn’t help either. I’m basically inundated by screens all day long and wish I could truly disconnect. What ends up happening is that I fill the space with gaming.
I still read but finding the time and headspace to do it has become near impossible. I need to be left in a cabin in the mountains with no screens and no agenda in order for any substantial reading to occur.
Wouldn’t it be better to at least put a modicum of effort in to have some privacy, than to put zero effort in and have none at all?
