Read one book slowly enough it changes you

Twenty pages a day beats a shelf of half-read spines.

Fast reading is fine for information and useless for change. Books that alter something are read slowly, with a pen.

Underline, argue in the margin, and stop at the end of each chapter to write two lines about what you would do differently.

One book properly read a quarter is four genuine shifts a year.

How to actually do it

01 Pick the book that has been recommended to you twice.

02 Read twenty pages a day with a pen in hand.

03 Write two lines per chapter about what changes.

You already know if this is the one. Go put a date on it.
