The most radical act of the 21st century is not voting with your ballot; it is voting with your attention. Every minute you spend on a piece of content is a vote for the world you want to live in.
The most addictive content is the content that fills silence. Re-learn how to be bored. Do the dishes without a podcast. Drive without music. Wait in line without scrolling. Boredom is not emptiness; it is the soil where creativity grows. Every great idea you've ever had came during a moment of boredom, not during a moment of absorption.
