This is a fantastic article. While I agree with the author for the most part, its a fine line between not reading anything at all and only creating. After all the author has a signup page to receive more of his content. I don't think the author meant that you should not read anything at all. The takeaway for me is:- 1. Be conscious of what you are reading. 2. Realize the opportunity cost of what you are reading/watching. 3. Always be creating something.
