@brandonb_phy I know that growing older brings many more responsibilities and worries which are constantly distracting and takes lot more energy and time. Also, I get called for things many more now than I would have been 20 years ago.
However, ideally we should be able to control our attention and put into something I want to get done in long term instead of switching context every 10/15 minutes.

Yes, I am trying to do it slow. When we are talking about picking and solidifying a habit, rushing does not help one. Thank you for your perspective.

@ceral Thank you for telling me this. I will give it a try.

@LouisIngenthron Thank you for your advice. I am trying the same thing.

I'd like to know how to make a strong reading habit. I used to read many books, but during the last few years, I lost that habit. Now, after all of these social media and online entertainment become available, I need more concentration to read books at a stretch. I still read books but get distracted every 10 or 15 minutes. What can I do to stay on course with reading?
