There are few things I would add: 1. Measure your success in outcome. It's not the number of books that you read, but number of meaningful changes that you bring about in your life that matters. 2. Focus on interest. Read the books that are deeply interesting to you and help you with problems that you perceive need to be solved. You don't have to know everything about everything, read what grasps you. P.S: Tolle's books have probably changed me the most out of everything I've ever read. I'd also put them to the top of the list for getting out of the bubble of our own thoughts and perceptions.
2. Focus on interest.... I love to read comics, story books and fictional books. That's my interest. But what good does they do. It's equivalent to watching TV.
This just reminded me of something, I completely changed my habits by finding out book called The 21 Former doctor secrets by Rachel Morgan. It has been censored.
I don't read like I used to, but after college I read _Amusing Ourselves to Death_ and decided to stop watching television and read a lot more. People quit reading just when it starts to really get interesting. I read hundreds of books on many different subjects and started filling up some of the gaps in my education.
Loved that book. I read it only last year, some would think it's outdated, but one could as easily replace the word "television" with "the Internet" and it all makes perfect sense. A 10/10 reading experience.
Thank you for changing my life. I started to watch your videos since last year. I don't really like reading, but I love listening. Thank you for summarizing those influential books for me 😊😊
the first 5 minutes were intriguing. Then the topic changed to money and time. And that's where it goes wrong. Life is not about -more- money. It's about happiness, challenge, satisfaction. I work in my own vegetable garden because it makes me happy. Not because it's more expensive in the supermarket. I play tennis because I find it challenging. Because I try to win from my friends. And not because I want to become world champion. And indeed: in the time that I'm playing tennis, I could have earned 20 dollars. But what good is that to me?
The irony in your statement is that without money you don’t own a vegetable garden, fertilizers, soils, seeds, water or a water hose. Without money you don’t own a tennis racket, tennis shoes, tennis clothes and you won’t have access to a nice club to play tennis. At some point you won’t be able to work, do you have enough money for that?
@@obijuan3004Thank you. She may not go to a tennis club. But your point is well taken. If there isn’t enough for basic security, the well being things are more difficult. Maslow’s hierarchy.
I bought a book Called DO it Today because I wasnt doing anything from long yrs. HOwever, I didnt open the book even though it says Do it today. After watching your Vide0 I have decided tp open the book rightaway start reading with the process you have mentioned in the vidoe,. Thak you for a valuable video.
Audible was a game changer for me, ive read maybe a handful of books in my life and most of those before i was 10. I think im at 20books now in only the last few years. I listen on my way to work and i can tell you my life and career have improved significantly.
Wow! First time I see you on my feed. Excellent video and excellent recommendations. My excuse is that I receive hundreds of chats and emails throughout the day, and just don’t want to read any more after my very long workday has ended. I have tried going back to reading and has been very difficult for me because the above. I recently finished the 48 Laws of Power, it hooked me, didn’t matter how busy I was. Thank you! I will try, 2 minutes at a time and picking up books about the problems I’m trying to solve.

I used to hate reading too, but mastering small habits, like the 2-minute rule, really changed my life! If anyone's interested in building better habits, this playlist on 'Mastering Habits' has some great tips that helped me: Mastering Habits Playlist. Definitely worth checking out!
I lucked out and have always enjoyed reading, but... Two minutes a day - 14 minutes a week - is *not* gonna burn through about a book a week... (350 books in 364 weeks). Using multiple "grabs" of 2-minute chunks in a day is reasonable, but that's not what "two minutes a day" means.
this is such a great heads-up at just the right time. I've been trying to pass an extremely challenging test for a certificate and I have zero clue where I should start. So I'm kinda procrastinating. Well, I'm starting bit by bit, like daily. Not big changes, but small and steady.
Significance, to me, is not measured by time. I spend 5 minutes a day in my Bible app with scripture and prayer. That 5 minutes may seem insignificant to some, but to me, it’s the most important 5 minutes of my day.
Since getting Covid I have to listen to audiobooks. But, as before Covid, I only listened to fiction. Your video was like a light being turned on in my head. “Books can solve your problems.” I not once thought that. Now I’m taking advantage of my library card and listening to audiobooks that way. I’m “talking” with Dale Carnegie right now.
Thank you for this channel, It has really helped me improve my habits. Atomic habits and laws of human nature were life changing books for me. I am currently studying CAPTIVATE by Vanessa , can't wait to see it on your channel. I pray that this channel helps you as much as it helps us
I've listened to a few of her videos now, but this little 12 min clip really hit home for me. I listen to youtube motivational tapes while showering all the time, but now b/c of her I'm going to start adding audio books. Yesterday I was on the bus & I started watching this video. I've heard this clip a few times but watching & listening really made a difference. Her voice is perfect too. It doesn't come across as monotonous or her voice being too low in order to be able to hear her while showering. Thank you whoever you are ;-)
I've discovered that people who read a lot tend to do well financially. Because they are home all day reading books. They don't go out of the house to spend money and are on their phone less doing impulse buys. Want to get rich? Dont go outside and hide your phone. lol
I appreciate encouraging people to do more constructive activities. However... *Listening to audio books is not reading, it does not engage the brain to the same level.* But... It is a start. Strive to actually read!
So much of you talked about in this video, resonates with me. I picked-up books 3 years ago and my goal was to be a better peer and leader in workplace. I improved a lot. Now I am changing the topic, grow money, but still reading books.
I sue to hate reading books ... main reason I couldn't understand the benefits, here are three benefits I discovered, reading is like exercise it improves all areas of your life, all you need is two minutes a day. For example person saying they can't commit to X habit right now - they end up just finding more excuses. If something isn't important right now, then you might never do it. If you ever read atomic habits - you already know you start from 2 minutes a day, this starts in everything in life, not just reading books. you learn to meditate regularly - by on breathe . find a routine, find gaps to read . example every time I was on public transport - thought to myself listen to audio book just for two minutes, if you listen to an audio book for 2 mins its not like you are going to be smart... small consistent daily choices ... one one hand small repeated things daily are the only things that matter , when things are easy to do its also easy not to do - e.g. when waiting for someone. 3:32 calculation 20 books a year - by increasing slowly ... Imagine how much more money you would earn, how fit you would look, again its easy to ignore those . Success is born through not massive actions but small choices. Okay to recap 1) don't wait for things - start now 2) find small 2 minute gaps to read, books are solutions to your problems "guess what there is a book for each of these problems, growing up these are the C of reading. "He always made me feel special and appreciate, he smiled , brung up the title of the book, showed me how to win friends and influence people. Dale C book was one of the , after that experience I kept Third benefit , the book is a mentor, when I wanted to learn how to make more money I looked around and , once I stated reading I learned Robert K has a book in money When you read powerful books , its also impossible to read the mindset of millionaires then act like a poor person through your entire life, for example before got to reading I would go store to store just save af ew bucks on my shopping, or Then I read secrets of millionaire mind Taught me if spend 5dollars spend Successful people would think how spend 1hr much more money. Feel like I am getting off track here, what I am trying to say is that the book is mentor To recap Reading is best habit 2) Book is way to solve problems 3) Book is your mentor Questions about book Pick a book - that would solve problem - Two, best way to read a book - is audio version - try trial the first 45minutes see if its worth while Like to try audio books - but I struggle with audio books Audio books are on your phone Pick a book which is in story format 5) Make pick book What's the personal development book everyone needs to read? "the power of now be eckhart tolle" - we need to learn how to control or minds Can you imagine this was our state? Check out the power of now, every problem can be chased to voice in head which never shuts up, realise you have a crazy room mate in your head
I read in 15 minutes sections. Read 15 minutes then take a break for 15 minutes or less or more. I easily get an hour of reading in a day and get things done too. I use a timer.
MIND MAPS to take notes It's also good to read a book about the least difficult problem, one that seems like you're an inch away. Success breeds success.
Is partially true Even if you read and you spread this trough a few months period, almost sure you will not recall what you've read at the beggining. The approach should be by chapters at least, and you still have to try to understand what you read and maybe take some notes etc ...
Amazing video with many great tips beside the reading part, the only thing you could add is the SEO part of adding the book you want us to read (at the end) in your description, when someone clicks on it you get a small amount when setting it up properly.

Top 5️⃣ must read books… I’ll go first, in random order.⬇️ 1. An Iron Will ~ Orison Swett Marden 2. The Way Of Men ~ Jack Donovan 3. The Most Dangerous Animal ~ David Livingstone Smith 4. Meditations ~ Marcus Aurelius 5. Paradise Lost ~ John Milton
Thank you for sharing your life experiences so openly. There were many moments that resonated with me and mirrored parts of my own journey. You also provided some new insights I hadn't considered before, and I wanted to express my personal gratitude for that.
I have read each book and I would call these new thought books. One older and one relatively newer. It is important to live in the now, not in the past or future. The now is our true reality. I have a collection of new thought books of 300 or more and its easy reading but very practical. They do have a spiritual aspect and lean toward how the mind works and our relationship toward God and man.
1. Small Habit: Just 2 minutes a day can lead to significant changes. Don’t wait for the perfect time; start now with small actions. 2. Solutions: Books help solve specific problems, like improving communication and boosting confidence. They become valuable tools for personal growth. 3. Guides: You don’t need successful friends; authors can guide you. Reading success-related books changes your mindset and behavior. 4. Which book should I start with? Choose a book that addresses your biggest current problem. 5. What’s the best way to read? Listen to audiobooks first; if it’s not engaging within 45 minutes, stop. If it’s good, listen again while skimming the text. 6. Struggling to focus on audiobooks? Don’t stress about understanding everything. Treat it like a conversation with a smart friend. Pick simpler books and adjust the speed as needed. 7. Must-read book? "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle helps you control your thoughts and understand your mind.
If I start to build my reading habit from Day 1 as 100 seconds and increase it by 1% daily. It will become 3741 seconds or 62.35 minutes a day. and I will max out myself at 3741 seconds and will maintain the time for next 4 years. If I assume it takes me 18000 seconds or 300 minutes or 5 hours to complete a book containing around 120-150 pages. Year 1 = 20 Books Year 2 = 75 Books Year 3 = 75 Books Year 4 = 75 Books Year 5 = 75 Books After completion of this streak, anyone can approximately complete 320 books in 5 year. 1 book cost me around $1.25 or 150 BDT on average in my country Bangladesh. 320 books will cost me $400 or BDT48000.
As the Stoics said: “It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” - Epictetus Which basically means: Your response to events shapes your experience, not the events themselves.
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
It's easy to just sit there, in my easy chair, thinking about how taking those small steps can change my life. And that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there…thinking about taking those small steps!
Writers don't prioritize sharing important knowledge in books; they simply write to sell. Readers consume written material for leisure, much like those who enjoy watching anime or playing video games.
Don't wait for the right time or for motivation so that you start doing things! I wish I had this mindset few years back when I f..ked my studies because I waited for motivation.
If you ever listen to anything while reading comments, let it be this - go to borlest and read the book whispers of manifestation, then come back and thank me
I really enjoyed your video. Basically, I was not interested in reading books, but a year ago I understood the importance of books and how they influence our minds. Now I spend at least 15 minutes a day reading books, and I mostly prefer personality development books. Could you please share some book names in this genre? I think it would really help me.
Woah for real? I'm so excited. Celia dullpher strategy has normalised winning trades for me also. and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
The internet is our greatest book in the world. We can read articles, watch videos like this and listen audio books on it. We can do them all to learn something new every day. Though, the power of now is still worth reading as well.
Something happened to me, I stopped reading in Class 7 - i.e. books outside school and only started reading text books - till MBA, I did not read anything outside curriculum - But my life changed after reading books. Reading Black Swan the first book - took me close to a month. I realized that i lost the ability to read.
Outstanding information,with world crisis,rising inflation and economic instability due to poor governance, consider digital assets as a means to attain financial freedom.
Building wealth involves good habits and risks like putting money into solid investments like digital currencies,having a good financial manager is what people tend to shy away from,and it keeps hunting them in the near future after many losses, be disciplined and get certified manager, I pray that anyone reading this will be successful!!!
I'm curious to know more about the expert broker you're considering. Could you share some details about their experience and why you believe they might be a good fit for people’s trading.

There are few things I would add:
1. Measure your success in outcome. It's not the number of books that you read, but number of meaningful changes that you bring about in your life that matters.
2. Focus on interest. Read the books that are deeply interesting to you and help you with problems that you perceive need to be solved. You don't have to know everything about everything, read what grasps you.
P.S: Tolle's books have probably changed me the most out of everything I've ever read. I'd also put them to the top of the list for getting out of the bubble of our own thoughts and perceptions.
is it a good thing to read two books at a time..(not simultaneously)? i pick up one..when i get bored of it..i pick the other one.
@@AdesanyaAyodejiCeg Of course. Sometimes I read 3 or 4 books at a time and there is absolutely no difference in the outcome
2. Focus on interest.... I love to read comics, story books and fictional books. That's my interest. But what good does they do. It's equivalent to watching TV.
Atomic Habits is a gem everyone should read at least yearly.

I take it that those 2 mentioned topics are just examples of areas where you could aim to change and improve in your live

2. Solutions: Books help solve specific problems, like improving communication and boosting confidence. They become valuable tools for personal growth.
3. Guides: You don’t need successful friends; authors can guide you. Reading success-related books changes your mindset and behavior.
4. Which book should I start with?
Choose a book that addresses your biggest current problem.
5. What’s the best way to read?
Listen to audiobooks first; if it’s not engaging within 45 minutes, stop. If it’s good, listen again while skimming the text.
6. Struggling to focus on audiobooks?
Don’t stress about understanding everything. Treat it like a conversation with a smart friend. Pick simpler books and adjust the speed as needed.
7. Must-read book?
"The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle helps you control your thoughts and understand your mind.
If I start to build my reading habit from Day 1 as 100 seconds and increase it by 1% daily. It will become 3741 seconds or 62.35 minutes a day. and I will max out myself at 3741 seconds and will maintain the time for next 4 years.
If I assume it takes me 18000 seconds or 300 minutes or 5 hours to complete a book containing around 120-150 pages.
Year 1 = 20 Books
Year 2 = 75 Books
Year 3 = 75 Books
Year 4 = 75 Books
Year 5 = 75 Books
After completion of this streak, anyone can approximately complete 320 books in 5 year.
1 book cost me around $1.25 or 150 BDT on average in my country Bangladesh. 320 books will cost me $400 or BDT48000.

The best thing to start my day, thanks. Amazing voice by the way :)
As the Stoics said:
“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” - Epictetus
Which basically means: Your response to events shapes your experience, not the events themselves.

For me it is writing. I keep editing and soliciting feedback but so rarely making new content.
I read not to solve my problem, I read to escape.
Great video ! Thank you ! I like how you just keep talking ! No bs !
I usually dont comment but this is really insightful. 👍
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
So Well Presented. How did you develop your reading speed? Thanks!

It's easy to just sit there, in my easy chair, thinking about how taking those small steps can change my life.

Finally!
Very simple yet life changing advice. ❤
This class needs to be taught in all highschools
Thank you very much 🙏🏻
Love listening to your summaries ❤ Perfect delivery 👍🏻
Thank you 🌸
Writers don't prioritize sharing important knowledge in books; they simply write to sell. Readers consume written material for leisure, much like those who enjoy watching anime or playing video games.
Don't wait for the right time or for motivation so that you start doing things! I wish I had this mindset few years back when I f..ked my studies because I waited for motivation.
You can’t compound time, one percent compounded every day you will shortly wind up with 300 hours every day.
glad to you are back
If you ever listen to anything while reading comments, let it be this - go to borlest and read the book whispers of manifestation, then come back and thank me
Great Content !!!! Great Advice !!!! Thank you !!!!
I really enjoyed your video. Basically, I was not interested in reading books, but a year ago I understood the importance of books and how they influence our minds. Now I spend at least 15 minutes a day reading books, and I mostly prefer personality development books. Could you please share some book names in this genre? I think it would really help me.

The internet is our greatest book in the world. We can read articles, watch videos like this and listen audio books on it. We can do them all to learn something new every day. Though, the power of now is still worth reading as well.
I love your videos thanks for your hard work
Something happened to me, I stopped reading in Class 7 - i.e. books outside school and only started reading text books - till MBA, I did not read anything outside curriculum - But my life changed after reading books. Reading Black Swan the first book - took me close to a month. I realized that i lost the ability to read.
I love your presentation, Thanks
Thank you. This has helped me.
