Start simply. Pick something, anything, and dwell on it for an hour. A half hour. Instead of reading twenty interesting, fascinating things in ten minutes, read just one. One long thing. Read a New Yorker article. Read the entire issue, spend hours doing it. I feel different when I do that. It may not be a sense of perfect serenity, but I feel strong, centered, in control of my own thoughts. When I flit around the net, checking Twitter, Facebook, and other little pots of nectar, I feel agitated, drunk, unsatisfied.
