Visit YouTube like a physical library

As I eagerly await our local library move to a different/closer building; bigger, better and fully renovated, I was pondering why I still like the idea of our local library when you get everything digital these days.

When you visit a brick and mortar library, you are intentional with your visit; a specific book you have in mind or pick/read a few books and papers around an interest area.

Remember to visit YouTube the same way, but more importantly, remind yourself every few minutes on why are in there. A specific DIY know-how, collection of videos around a specific theme/course or perhaps very specific entertainment (For me, most often, this seems to be Roger Federer tennis highlights). 

Start with time limit, and never swarm aimlessly around here — it's a wild-wild west algorithmically controlling your mind.
