AM: Another morning of snow shoveling - and more heavy, wet snow.
Am I the only one who feels too plugged in? I've decided I'm listening to too many podcasts, too many books on audible, spending too much time on twitter. When I first discovered that I could do things with my phone I thought it was a tremendous opportunity for self-improvement and a great way to use my time more effectively on my commute, on the treadmill, out walking etc. But I think it's making me feel overwhelmed and also a little anxious. Up until just a couple years ago I never ran with headphones, even on the treadmill andI relied exclusively on the printed word for information. I'm aware of books that have been written on this topic - The Shallows , Stolen Focus etc and I think they may be on to something.
