Why should be learn more?

Every day we wake up to pick up our phone check the chats, then slowly move to reels then videos, get out of bed play music/news, check the mail and so many many things happen revolving around our phones and tv's

But, have you wondered, if we might be consuming too little knowledge even while we are updated about the latest trends? manier times I've kept my phone aside and said am done! while I pick it up inadvertently a few minutes later, I think we have programmed ourselves to be entertained, 30-second scroll is their news now, but how was it useful? I have no idea, I cant think of keeping aside the phone and sitting relaxed, for I have found relaxation in the phone on ***!

But I came across this quote" We read, not to know more, but to ignore less" I felt a jerk, i mean, I reflected on myself I felt i had been consuming good knowledge for sure like new places, food, culture but I've also been ignoring the fact that influencers tailor the situations to suit us.

For the past couple of weeks, I've been consciously moving out to the doom scroll and trying to grab the hand of quality content,

Stopping here and would like to ask : do you agree? or do you have a diff view?
