    1. Take notes in the margins;
    2. Don't start what you can't finish;
    3. Paper books > ebooks

    i've been reading basically everyday for 2 hours a day int he morning and have read 70 books or more int he past 4 years. 100% the most helpful thing is having a pen and the moment u have a thought or disagreement or new word etc. i write it down and i keep doing that for hours and it truly changes the way u think and interact with others it is so cool...

    4 to know we are not alone
    5 find new ideas
    6 be inspired
    7 to learn to think
    8 stay teachable
    9 dare to dream
    10 gain courage
    11 strengthen convictions
    12 learn to write
    13 fall in love
    14 stretch our mind
    15 be tolerant

    Interesting how Naval Ravikant has a different way of reading, in the sense, he doesn’t start with the intention of finishing it. He admits to reading 6-7 books at a time while reading bits and pieces of each depending on his inclination... different ways of reading but both effective nonetheless.
    The other parts are spot on: reading for at least an hour if not more per day etc etc

    I know how it is when you come across a thing you disagree and then it takes longer to finish. With stories is different because the author takes you to the journey the reader decides to make when it starts reading the book. With this video, I've been confirmed what I was thinking: that Bill Gates reads books turning page after page, like any other human being! :-)

      He is seen as mostly non-partisan and as the quintessential billionaire. (He does have views on wealth inequality that may be described as progressive, but in my view he is very much a capitalistic-minded person and he doesn't lean too much in any one ideological direction).
      Compared to all the really famous American billionaires (Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, Michael Bloomberg, etc.) he seems to have little to no political ambitions.
      He is a major figure in reforming the U.S. primary education system (but he hasn't been effective).
      Similar to Steve Jobs, Bill Gates is known to be a businessman that will do anything to succeed (you can look up his relationship with Paul Allen for more on that).
      Overall, he isn't a very public figure (in contrast to Steve Jobs who had more of a public persona and is still held in overly gratuitous admiration by the American public at large) and that may have started in 2000 when he stepped down from his role as CEO of Microsoft and stayed as the chairman of its board of directors.
      He is a public figure in American society, but he appears to purposely keep a balance so as to not be too public.

      Can, but don't want to. I can actually read far faster than I do (proven on one class test during studies when I've got highest mark while needing less than half time we had (one whole page was just long text with gaps so I've done it in no time), but I don't find it pleasurable.

      Nemo TheEight depends on the content IMO: I don’t read much fiction, but when I do i would want to read slowly to enjoy, I read autobiography’s mostly for facts and self improvement, I generally speed through the drawn out stories and to the crux of each learning. A number of autobiography’s literally repeat the 1st chapter multiple times too.

    I couldn't agree more. I read a lot of books and one of the two things happen:
    1. I don't want to finish the book because I can't have enough of it because it's so good.
    2. I don't want to finish the book because I don't agree with the author.

    Hi Bill. I read lots of books too. However, I read mostly English and French books, and sometimes Italian and German ( both mid-level ); because I enjoy the foreign language flavour of books.
    I speak several languages. Thanks for sharing your insights!
