Peter Sorgenfrei quotes Plutarch on the difference between filling your mind like a vessel and kindling it like a fire, arguing for intentional media consumption over doomscrolling.
Plutarch said, the mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled. Think about that when you decide what goes in there, how you feed or how you kindle that fire. Is it what we all succumb to— doom scrolling and spending a lot of time watching stuff, reading stuff, thinking about stuff that actually doesn't serve us? Or do you make a conscious choice, be intentional about what you consume, what you put in that mind, and how you kindle that fire?
