I totally agree. Brave values time with their cryptocurrency, I try to value my attention in terms of books. Like how much less I will be able to read if I read or listen to this shitty story/video. From there, I think Twitter and other similar platforms could be well worth 100 books for negligeable returns (which means it is too expensive to look at).

How have you changed in the last 5 years?

I'm quite different, I would say I'm living a completely different life every 6 years or so.

Attention is really the key here.

What you pay attention to defines your thoughts, which defines your actions, which defines your life.

I've been paying attention to different things over the years.

It helps to not follow mainstream media, so that you can choose exactly what you want to pay attention to, instead of just being fed what somebody else wants you to pay attention to now.
