Consumption vs creation
It’s so easy to consume media. All of it is literally battling for your attention. And if don’t resist you will succumb to it.
There is an interesting dilemma, though. In order to create any type of media–writing, video, podcast–you have to come up with a topic. Consuming media helps with that.
On the other hand, the time that you spend consuming media is the time you are not creating. So, in a way, it is pretty hard to avoid consumption and at the same time it helps. Moderation is the key, I suppose.
