Happiness is knowing that I DON’T have to finish every single page of every single book. 📚

When you buy a book, you don’t buy the time to read it. The buying and the reading are two separate things, entirely – and whole other levels of commitment.

❌ Don’t let this put you off buying books. Books are one of life’s great treasures; and buying books is one of life’s great joys.

✔ Do install these 3 changes:

(1) Curate a reading list. Be selective and intentional. Figure-out what you want to invest your time in.

(2) Be thoughtful about what you want to get from your next book, and strategic about how you read it.

(3) Be ok getting “just one” idea from a book. That’s well-worth the money. Don’t force yourself to finish every single word. Be ok with half-read books on your shelf.

Happy reading.
