I've just realized that not read any book for last 15 years.
And... I am reading too much. Politics, articles, news, technical documentation.
But when I hear you need to read books, my enthusiasm is 0
 
1. Write a book.
2. Give it to someone who isn't interested.
3. Expect them to read.

This is a way to torture.

If you want to read book, ask your friend who does the same thing as you do and you will read it in 50 minutes.
 
Yea books are great they take someone who's spent a few years or longer researching the topic and give you all the good information they have collected over the years.

reading the power of habit right now

Want to build a company, read successful small company owners...
 
Yes, mainly psychoanalysis. I used to read a lot of philosophy but over time I figured that philosophers just try to integrate their own shadows, they do not care to provide a functional worldview to the reader.
 
Yes, was reading principles by ray dalio but didn't like it so started with mastery by robert greene
 
Sure
Impossible compare the quality of philosophers and real writers with shitty gurus and podcasters talking bullshit on tiktok

Are for example splishsplash or basstrackerboats real writers?

They're writing a lot on this forum. I find it's better than 99% of books.
 
i'm making research in different stuff all the time, but didn't read any real books for almost a decade now,
i go deep with some research stuff, filtering & sticking to trusted sources and i believe that's enough for anyone to get enough knoweldge for most of things
 
I also moved from books to podcasts - in case you want some recommendations for Spotify podcasts - let me know what kind of genre you prefer, I will post my collection :)
Nice to have an exchange about such topics here!
Thanks OP

I like reading books, especially those about life and business
 
Yes, i read daily and have small library of around 200 books, honestly i found that spending my time in reading is much better than wasting my time watch reels on instagram, reading news and articles also count bro, but holding a paper in your hand is a joy i recommend it for you to try
