Inspiring stuff

Have you considered unplugging from the net for a while? Perhaps getting a book or two on the subject rather than looking on YouTube? I think finding other hobbies and activities is going to be crucial for success... my only point in mentioning unplugging is that I know I’ve heard from lots of sources that too much screen time in and of itself can cause depression.
