Ask HN: How much time do you spend reading books?

I have bought multiple books, but most of the time I don't find myself motivated to read them. Instead, I prefer to watch hour long documentaries/TED talks/programming tutorials on Youtube.

I feel that it's important to build the habit of reading books to improve my cognitive skills. Are there any tips for me please?

Not much to be honest --- nowadays I watch a lot of prestige TV for storytelling.

Occasionally I read a nonfiction book, or some poetry, but often the "literary" stuff I read is more like the New Yorker or other longreads.
