  • Sharing my process of reading difficult books since I only recently started reading Shakespeare’s plays. I talk about how to read and understand literature without feeling too overwhelmed, lost, or confused. Hope you find it useful!

    Engaging with books has significantly elevated my perspective on investing. True wealth isn't built through mere savings; financial freedom stems from strategic investments. I've learned that accumulating wealth hinges on making prudent investment decisions|

      Embarking on the investment journey at 40, I envision a triumphant testimony of significant success by the age of 55.

      Books have also changed my perspective on investing. Understanding that real wealth is built through strategic investments rather than mere savings is crucial. Working with an adviser has pointed me in the right direction.

    keep reading even when you don't fully understand the point or the purpose of the story or the text...... Good advice!

    I'm probably a mediocre reader. I rarely reread books, don't keep notes, and am constantly on the search for something new.

    thank you so much for creating this channel and for the way you talk about books ✨️
    it grounds me, reminds where life really is - like those special moments and things around which everything else is still, and you get to just be.
    thank you for adding some of that to the world (both you and Amreen).

    so helpful, ayesha! i think i wanted to hear exactly what you are saying with the context behind what you are saying. the narrative shift is so important to appreciate art and here, reading, i guess and to engage with more layers what we read. the more we sit with one narrative, the more narrower the possibility of possibility becomes. i am going to come back to rewatch this video just as a support. been dealing with a lot of tiredness mentally especially when it comes to reading. i don't do read as a chore but it feels harder because perhaps i am expecting unrealistic understanding just at the first go. thank you for sharing these thoughts with us.
    also, would you make a video talking about levels of book difficulty varying with genres and timelines and reading habits that come with it? not generally but about your experience and activity just like this one.

    I genuinely feel that most of the people struggle to pick up the habit of reading and some of us who do, lose the interest in reading in midway due this very fact that we don't know how to read. Reading is essentially a personal and reflective process and everyone has a different way of engaging with it and unless we figure out our ways of doing it, we are bound to fail as a reader. Thank you for picking up this fundamental topic. It is a sort of validation that I am not the only one who has a different way of engaging with the books.

    Wonderful video as always ✨. I’m very glad that you mentioned about Kant’s The critique of Pure Reason. Please make a video on Kant’s philosophy and your personal take on Kant’s works since he has influenced the likes of Schopenhauer and Husserl. Thank you so much for talking about books with such passion and sincerity🤌🏻🙏🏻.

    Julius Caesar and Merchant of Venice , only shakespeare book I’ve read, coz of school. However wanted to try and couldn’t get through few pages. This video is insightful to take small steps and try better now, will do it soon.
    Instead of usual why to read Shakespeare, this video emphasised on how to start and read. Kudos to that, much needed.
    Would you suggest owning one book “The complete works of Shakespeare” or buying each story as separate book.

    I am a little confused about re-reading a book. First, the constratint of time is there, indeed. I am an engineernig student in my third year, I have read over 4-5 books in this summer break, but now I don't if I will be able to even read much regularly, so how am I supposed to re-read even if I like a book so much?
