Some notes and links on reading
I listen to, and enjoy, the Farnam Stree Podcast and so this article about reading by its author/host has some credence to it - A Simple Plan to Start Reading More. In sum:
“It’s 25 pages a day. That’s it. Just commit to that, and then do it”
But then some helpful hints about Tricking yourself into reading more
- Create a pleasant environment
- Always carry a book with you (even on your regular drive commute)
- Give up on books
- Read a few books at a time
And this post helps with 4 memory hacks to remember what you’ve read
