I like to binge-watch TV shows. Some nights I find I’ve lost hours online, just watching episode after episode: Netflix, Prime, iPlayer (have you watched Staged<\/a> yet? If not, you should!) There’s just so much I want to get round to watching and so many good shows that I keep revisiting. But is it really the best use of my time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Probably not. Ok, ok. No – definitely not. I mean, yes, it helps me switch off and wind down after a long day ‘at the home-office’, but it’s not great to lose huge chunks of time staring at the screen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, like many things, it’s all about balance. Recognising that I do need some time to switch off and watch something ‘mindless’. But whose to say that I can’t also use some of that ‘binge-watching’ time to watch things that will help me develop? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To that end, I’ve got some really interesting TED-Ed videos to share:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
