I hold no presumption that reading is for everyone, but perhaps you have your own novel activity for decompressing. Insert that activity as your action statement and modify the formula to you. To answer the question in short, I have time to read because I composed a formula for rehearsing habits that allowed me to 1) reveal the environments suitable for reading 2) become a speed reader 3) and find online lectures to fill the gaps that I had via my readings. Why did that work? Because it was fun. Action Statement "I will read daily." Why bother? Reading stimulates the mind (mental fitness), reduces stress, keeps me present, challenges my worldview, improves executive functions, and it's recreational.
