Last night, my wife said, “I don’t understand how you get through books so quickly.”
Here’s the secret: I spend a lot of time with my books.
I’m not a speed reader. You should know this by now. In fact, I’m the exact opposite. I read slowly on purpose so I can hear the conversations and connect with the ideas.
If you want to read a lot of books during your lifetime, the only way to do it is to sit down and open the book. Stop looking at your phone and thinking about your to-do lists. Everyone is so busy looking for the secrets to being a good reader, that they’re missing the point. There are no hacks you can learn on YouTube that will help you consume more books this year.
The only trick I know of that works is to read.
Until tomorrow, read slowly – take notes – apply the ideas.
