    This month's 30-day challenge was to replace all of my music with audiobooks. I've been obsessed with getting back to reading on a regular basis. Anyone who does read, they will tell you that the thoughts you get while you consume a good book are just mindblowing.
    But like everyone, I'm busy with life and the thought of sitting down to read a book sounds crazy to me. That's why replacing my music consumption with audiobooks made sense to me. This would give me zero excuses and force me to start building this habit of consuming more books.
    The best part of listening to audiobooks is being able to consume a book while I'm in the car, or at the gym, or waiting in line. Literally, anywhere, I can turn on my audibook app and start learning!
    Enjoy!

    Audio books are awesome! I was in a similar position where I always listened to music in the car. Now I've switched to audiobooks and podcasts. Not only do I feel like I'm learning everyday, its making me feel better too!

Then I decided to start with something I'm familiar with, so I downloaded some lectures. I absolutely loved the thing!!! Thanks again for suggesting audiobooks!

    Won't lie this is how I spent my time probably for about 5 years. I "read" about 2,000 book split between audiobooks and ebooks. I literally always had a phablet/Samsung note phone in order to do this.

      @@dave3k I am currently completing my second masters in political science with a focus on statistical analysis. "Education wise". Overall, the biggest benefit, and the one i value the most, it that it has allowed me to be more excepting of alternate views. I am someone that is very accepting of every views and I attribute that to how many books I have read. Overall, books are not just a gateway to understanding subjects, but understanding people. Something i find more invaluable.

      Only joking. I actually attribute my open-mindedness and critical thinking to watching probably 1000 movies between my teens and early 20's. Being exposed to different cultures and points of view is a game-changer!

    I listen faster than I read. I can finish a book every ~3-4 days. I recommend incrementing the speed. The only downside is that I perceive conversations to go slow.

    The Great Gatsby was the most boring book I've ever had to read in school. I didn't understand it one bit!
    With that being said I fell out of love of reading books once I learned how to use a smart phone.....CZcams kind of ruined it for me a bit tbh (Not you Harsh you're awesome)
    But yes audible books have changed my life...I don't work out to them but I do go to bed listening to them instead of music sometimes

      I actually enjoyed the idea of The Great Gatsby after I left school, but in the moment, I didn't really enjoy it. But yes, audiobooks are gamechanger!
