Finally I found a method that works. I can now hyperfocus on reading and actually I use this method for everything now. Its extremely simple and I hope its helpful.

    It seems like you're trying to cater to the people who want to be "productive" avid reader (people who aspire to be "the CEO who reads 50 books a year"). No offense to you, but this seems like a researched video not talking from your experience (which can still be helpful). I just wanted to put my own experience out there (not that anyone asked for it). I've been the person who has read 50 and 60 books in a year (this year I've read 38). About 10 books a year without trying too hard. 1. Read what you're interested in when you're interested. I am a mood reader. I read what I want when I want. Personally, I prefer fiction because I can work towards understanding how characters see their world and understanding implicitly an author. It's a work on empathy. However, I also like to venture into history, philosophy, current issues (sexuality, racism, poverty, etc.), memoirs, finance, science, psychology (I'm a scientist), etc. Regardless, if you're interested in something you'll be more likely to want to read about it. 2. Use Audiobooks!!! Audiobooks saying the words while I'm reading the words helps me stay focused on said words. You can also listen to books for fun when they are a bit boring and then return to the actual book. If you want "free" audiobooks (or kindle books or magazines), go get yourself a library card and usually they have a partnership with an app call Libby where you can check out audiobooks/kindle books on your phone. Get the kindle app if you don't have a kindle, it's also free. 3. Read instead of watching TV or scrolling Tiktok or whatever doom scrolling you do. It'll be really hard initially, but if you do it enough times, it'll get easier (especially if you do #6). 4. If you're trying to remember detailed notes on a book, I'd suggest a pen and paper for notes. Map out how ideas connect and how they are relevant to your life. You remember what you care about. If you forget it, be real and realize you really don't care or haven't made the connection of why you should care. 5. Building your ability to read a lot is like a muscle you build. A few years back, I couldn't sit down and read a few pages without passing out and falling asleep. If you keep at it, it'll slowly get easier. 6. Read for fun. If you always read for "productivity" or "work" or "self-improvement," you'll feel like it is a chore. I certainly found it was when I started out that way. But once I started reading for fun, I really enjoyed it. It keeps me wanting to go back to reading. If you want to be an avid reader, make it so you don't despise doing it otherwise why would you do it? 7. (To match your number for fun) Don't worry about remembering everything. One idea can completely overturn your entire life. Sometimes that idea requires you to be in a certain headspace and certain point in life. So what you'll remember tends to be the important things that will propel you forward in life. Thus, rereading things has merit and worth!! Some things hit at different times and need to hit at different times. I thought I'd offer my thoughts because I really love reading and want to help others who would be interested in it too!

      overcome your bias against doing hard things and begin the effort to understand why such works are considered great and worth-reading. you are limiting your scope immensely. reading for the sake of reading is quite silly. go ahead and read anything just to build the habit, it's an important first step, but don't stop there - and i certainly wouldn't recommend instructing others to stop there as you have done. if all you get out of reading is a new routine and some mindset quotes, you're not reading the right books at all.
