"The Dao de Qing" is another short book that I recommend reading for only a page or two a day. Every page is very deep and requires a lot of reflection.
I've been doing this with my copy of Jeff Vandermeer's X trilogy - but I've been using page flags and sticky notes to help annotate (though I'm also considering annotating directly in some books that I own to kinda leave some notes behind for people to see someday). I definitely recommend for anyone that wants to take notes from a library book or feels precious with some of their books to use page flags and sticky notes to help annotate! There's even a lot of cheap, clear see-thru sticky notes that are sold online stationary stores, like JetPens (and I think they also may have erasable highlighters and repositionable highlighter strips too).
glad to hear you're finding a note-taking method that works for you, that's awesome!
I use a kind of different approach i normally read few pages for 25 minutes and then for the next 5 minutes i describe the most important content to myself its generally not about how many pages you read or to complete an entire book in a week but how you better understand a concept in the book that will be useful to you personally and professionally. Quantity always wins over quantity.👍
that's a great strategy!
🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 "The elephant in the brain"
Thanks needed to hear that, reinforces what I already knew
Thank you 😅
@Aspiringauthorwithasweettooth
@alexandbooks to consolidate all my key points and action steps like you showed at the end of the video, do you use a digital notebook to organize your thoughts across multiple books…like a second brain?
Yes, here's a video to learn more: czcams.com/video/fES9ZrLXY9s/video.htmlsi=bfx-mp6gnDXgm6fB

Thank you for telling me that humans are worse than I thought now I can sleep less peacefully at night

Iv been reading a chapter, then in a separate notebook ill write a summary from memory of the chapter, then ill re read the chapter highlighting as i go along, then ill write bulleted notes of quotes or re word in my own words a summary of the stuff i highlighted.
Some "champagne hypocrites" you should all avoid ever taking financial information from are: Dave Ramsey, David Bach, Tony Robbins, Suze Orman, JL Collins, Ramit Sethi, Ray Dalio and David Swensen.
Thanks!
thank you so much !
Not always, depends. Some out of print books will cost u more than new version of the same.
That was great, thank you both
Joined the waitlist! Hopefully it will be available soon and at an affordable price
The updated version should be out in 2 months or so! What would you consider well-priced btw?
I ordered it 5 Min ago on Amazon! I cant wait!
Reading Letters From A Stoic. Its heavy in some places. But well written and easy to undetstand.
you forgot the religious books _ because in facts , philosophy had its success because religion was decreasing , and philosophy just reactualised the concept of fatality from the religions .
is making notes from a book infringement?
Is legal to take notes from a book without copyright violation?
Is there a way to take note for ebook that will automatically save when you you highlight it?
I read all three books he mentioned at the end. Power of now maybe 20 - 25 times, yet i‘ve never had less moneY than now ☺️ Lord have mercy
We are all visual creatures including women. The author lowered her standards because she was unable to conquer Chad. 2024
I don’t consider self help books non fiction
Or you can sub to a book podcast LIKE MINE… that reviews the latest books! You can watch the content and get the LATEST information and most interesting facts which always help with conversation starters and you’ll just become a smarter person in general!
This is actually good 😂❤ Simple but bright 📈
Amazing idea 💡
I want to join the course how to read
Sir your website is not working 😞
1. Highlight while reading 2. Note highlight content page numbers at starting of the book 3. At last page note the lessons learned from that book 4. Then also note the action steps to implement lessons 😊
Doing good rewards you? What is wrong with humans? Why do you want find reason not to do good?
No one commenting on the context of the book: Context of the book: Distraction _bad_ All of us: Distraction *_good_*
I WILL SUGGEST TO READ 20-25 PAGES A DAY SO YOU DON'T OVER READ
Great financial advice!!! marriage advice - not so much.
Can u plz 🙏 tell me which one is best among them.. according to ur personal experience..!!
You should look at the zettelkasten method 😊
But why?
It’s quite interesting because based on different research speed reading doesn’t exist.
What about slow reading?
@@user-go8zo8vy8x It goes without saying.
I have read man search for meaning and the almanack of naval ravikant and they were absolutely worth it..
vandalism
Very nice💯💯 and thank u
Thanks if truly 😮😮😮😮😅😅😅😊😊😊😊
Oh he's a grifter who sells motivational masturbation in the shape of books. Read actual books, not extensions of one page ideas with 299 page anecdotes. Density is everything. Don't waste your time with books that are the Mountain Dew of reading. Pick up something that is a hearty meal of a book to nourish your mind and spirit in the bite of every page.
Thank u
Turtles all the way down
