These days I no longer feel compelled to finish a book I started.

Most books really aren't worth the time to read.

I have to agree. Sometimes I think I'm not disciplined enough. But every now and then I start a book which is so interesting and vital that I'm compelled to go all the way through at top speed, with later re-reads. I'm thrilled and altered as a result. That's what reading is like for me now. Unfinished books no less than unordered books are part of the search and nothing to be ashamed of.

I wish somebody taught me this in highschool.

I'd be a very different person than I am today.

Does reading a thousand lifestyle on the web count for being worth your time?

No :-) but I had to read it to find that out.

Out of curiosity what do you find to be worth time doing?

Posting on HN, of course.
