    You can play that game with anything though.

    • watch 1 30min show a day: 182hrs
    • sleep 8hr instead of 7h: 365hrs
    • skip washing your hands during the day: 10-20yrs You called convince yourself to stop exercising? Stop eating breakfast? Stop reading? Stop talking to friends? Stop wasting time on hobbies?

    People can pick what they waste time on for themselves. I’m not going to spend 2hrs/day on social media, but I might play a video game, read a book, hike in the woods, watch a movie, organize photos, whatever. It’s my time, and mentally checking out for a bit doing something that’s not “productive” gives me energy I can apply to other pursuits.

      You are right of course. It’s just as time goes by I start to value more productive use of it.

        Oh yeah, definitely an over the top example to point out how micro managing your life isn’t always a good choice… hell, too much stress can kill you and that’s essentially what trying to make the most out of every second will do.
