I feel like I subconsciously made a decision not to read a lot of books for exactly these reasons.

Is reading a lot books healthy? Is it going to improve my quality of life? And would life be more positive and happier living in ignorance?

I don't know about you, but when I look at famous writers, or people who read constantly, I feel like I wouldn't want to be them.

When I see a man who *does* things instead spending all his time reading about them, I feel like I want to be like him.
