4 Tips on Reading from The Tim Ferriss Show podcast episode with @JamesClear and @tferriss πŸ“š
A Thread 🧡
1) Start more books, quit most of them:
You got to be willing to quit books fast. If you have baggage around finishing books, if you feel like you have to finish something because you started it, then you’re just going to be stuck and you won’t move on quickly enough.
2) Suggestions from friends are always helpful.
3) Check References:
If you find a book that’s good, go to the back of the book and see what the references are, and then go through those and just scan those books on Amazon, and a lot of the time, you’ll find a couple other ones that are useful.
4) The 3-star reviews are key – most helpful and critical:
If you find a book that had something, but you feel like maybe it didn’t quite hit it, go to Amazon, and check all the three-start reviews for that book. They’ll say, β€œInstead of reading this, you should read this one.”
One of my best podcast episode of this year.
