> You are your actions
If you watch anime all the time, you're not going to get very much done.
Likewise for YouTube. That being said, I've actually learned useful things from YouTube. Maybe I need a [[YouTube Slop Classifier]].
More importantly, when you spend your time consuming stimulating and stupefying media, you don't spend your time thinking, writing, creating, or [[Read the Boring Hard Stuff]], and furthermore, your tolerance for and interest in doing these things goes down.
This is also true of exercise and sleep. If you don't behave quite substantially differently than average, you will get average or below average results. See [[Personal Health Notes]]
