Buying a kindle and setting boundaries and goals (1-2 books per week, save interesting long form articles to kindle, no computer an hour before bed, no addictive games/apps on my phone or computer) really set my mind back on track after years of Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit. Since making this change in late December I've read a dozen books, countless interesting long form articles, and significantly cut down my time on gaming and social media. It's also resulted in fascinating personal discoveries and helped improved my performance at work and music.
Most importantly it doesn't feel like work. I love discussing various findings from what I read with friends. And when you read an edifying book, it stays with you for a long time and helps form a foundation to keep building upon.
