Reading isn't learning. Don't just skim through those books. Understand them, analise them. View the points of the author from different perspectives. Your bookshelf isn't your trophy cabinet. It's not about how may books you've read, it's about how deeply you understood those topics.

Read biographies slower, novels fast.

“We often think that more is better. But better is better than more”, Seth Godin.

I have the following reasons to read book 1. it keeps me motivated and inspires me to work on my purpose. 2. I aim to be a life-long learner, reader, and achiever. 3. I love thinking and creating new ideas and philosophies of life. 4. I enjoy listening to others' ideas and ways of thinking and especially when there is something new to learn from them. reading a book is like communicating with the author, trying the understand the depth of the words, this is enjoyment. so for me, reading books is like both enjoyment as well as learning.

One should rather subscribe to blinkist ot mentorbox instead!

What I've learned in this video is that he wants us to be an effective reader. When it comes to reading a book, it is not just about how many books you can read but it is about being an effective reader that we could be. I had this confusion for the longer time that I should read much of book even though that book is not relevant anymore for me. The relevancy of the book should also be consider. It is what he mostly mentioned to his video that it is okay to choose topic that pique your interest, not just to oblige yourself to read it cover to cover; this is also I want to practice it. Mostly for some novice, they think that reading should be an obligation to be a reader but once you master the art of reading you will also think about the effectivity and how you can make the book serve you. Because we should make the book serves us, not to serve the book, so it doesn't matter if a certain book doesn't make you immerse to continue it. One thing that we should also consider is that reading should also equate to the status quo; in which part you want to have a piece of knowledge. He mentioned that first thing he do is that he let himself watch some video for him to contextualize the book. This is also to let you think if the book can help you with your current dilemma or to tap your intellectual curiosity. Being an effective reader is underrrated. With this evolving technology that most of us is curator and creator is few. We mostly think about the consumption of information and less in using it. To be effective we should also adhere with the application because it is not about knowing but it is about the action that we can make through reading.

Couldn't have said it better.

After reading books from last 4 year I never felt I should read a book in a single day by whatever method you are telling. If you read a book within a month then also fine because the purpose is to gain something at least one thing is enough from a book to apply in our life. But during these years of journey I realized one thing, every time when you re-read the same book you will gain something different from the previous reading because when you read last time we are in different situation, mood , mindset , etc. and when you read currently then again we are in different mindset, mood, etc. so if you read only one book throughout the year at least 6-8 times then see the wonders it will create. So my point is many people focus on reading more and more books but I think we should focus on quality of reading rather than quantity.

My target in 2018 is to read 24 books. Once I finish a book I will buy next . I want to create a library with only books those I read

The quantity of how much books you've read doesn't make change. Keep in mind that the ability to understand the message that book conveyed is what really matters. The majority of us is reading only to say about himself a reader, read with passion, read with desire, read with focus, read with big interest and finally read because you admire reading

Love the "3S formula" for each time you finish a chapter - the story that inspired you, the statistic that blew your mind, and a note of something you want to share with someone else. I agree with your point about bringing energy and enthusiasm to a book, vs having the attitude of forcing ourselves through them. If you "have to" read a book for school, that's a joy killer if that's the attitude. If you "get to" read a book for a class because you think through why your professor thought that book would benefit you as a person, a citizen or in your future profession, then it puts a different spin on it. I remember the summer I was 9 years old, staying with my grandparents. They only had children's classics (from when their children were young). What did I know about classics? All I knew at 9 was, "Oh, cool, this book has an elephant on the cover!" and "this book is about kids having adventures!" I read Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, Jungle Book, Kim, Scarlet Letter, and a dozen more. Then, over the next few years in middle and high school, we would get to those books in the curriculum and I would be so excited at the chance to revisit a beloved friend, whereas all the other students groaned and moaned about "having to" read these wonderful books. It taught me such an important life lesson about the power of choice and attitude.

It's more interesting than reading the books. after being familiar with the topic, go to the book and only have a glance and you can see you do not need to understand the concept by yourself. That's enough to just see what's more in those pages. Good Luck

Reading tips: 1. Check book summaries to decide whether you really want to read it or not. 2. In Index of a book highlight the part which interest you the most. 3. When reading a chapter firstly, skim read it to get an overview of it and decide whether you want to read it again for better understanding. 4. Read the first chapter because author has put so much energy into that. 5. Use finger while reading to speed up the process. 6. Focus on the strongest 5-6 words of a paragraph for faster reading. 7. After the end of each chapter write down this 3s: • What did this chapter is conveying according to me? • What to do I learn from this chapter? • Which one of the stories in this chapter inspired me the most? • Where & When I am gonna apply the principles which i learn from this chapter?

I just love reading self development books first thing in the morning everyday. I got few classy collections with me, so I take one book at a time to read one chapter a day, Right now am reading "How to win friends and influence people" by Dale Carnegie. Such a class this book as it has all the attributes to help one to develop a mindset to maintain good human relationships for life time.

Personally I like engaging with my books and treating it like a conversation. I write thoughts in the margins and underline key points and then write my own “personalized table of contents on a blank page in front of book”. That way I can open it up years later and reread and see what I’ve taken action on. Plus some of the best parts of the book are in the places and sections you would least expect or be interested in!

Summary:: Grab the essence, Highlight stuff. Focus on importnt words of the sentence. Focus on interest power than willpower.

I always love having conversations with people that claim to read a lot of books in a short period of time. The conversation usually goes something like me having to tell them that I didn't read all of the books that they are claiming to have read, but then I ask them about the specifics of a book that we both have read and they cannot recall any of it. Reading is not the same as learning. Life is not a checklist to be gotten through. It is an experience to be learned from. It is one of the reasons I wish people would stop taking selfies in front of historical landmarks, or recording concerts that they are at. Just live in the moment people actually experience the things that you are there for, rather than endlessly chronicle your adventures so that you appear cool online and get a few likes/views/upvotes.

This also makes it more fun and interesting and actually makes you more focused and engaged as you try to decide if it's worth reading or not. And if you decide you want to read something cover to cover it's because you genuinely want to. Idk about y'all but I have a massive pile of books I want to read, so this will help me out a ton.

Nah, it's true though. The method that Shetty proposes means that you'll only read what YOU want to know, which means that you'll skip anything that's uncomfortable, hard to understand, or lengthy. The method only works with non-fiction easy-to-read books.

Book reading is a amazing habit. It helps you to self development and you get abundance of knoledge through books.

Mistake 1: reading cover to cover Mistake 2: Be excited and love to learn. How to read then? Find your interest from ted talks or youtube before purchasing the book. Grasp and understand your interesting books. Focus on most important words. Skim before purchasing a book. Read first three lines and last three lines to grab an idea of the book. Highlight good points to learn from book. Read introduction. Use Audiobooks to learn. 3s formula: Story writing, statistics, share eith frds.

The comments gives me hope. I'm happy to see that people don't actually buy into the deceptive message of this video. Good books takes time to read and requires time to understand and reflect upon. I devote several hours a day for reading but I'm in no way reading a book a day. What a shame to highlight sirtain parts of the book and only focus on that. An important part of learning is definitely reading the parts which is beyond your scope of interest, and it is exactly those parts of the book that will expand you world view and surprise you in new and colorful ways. There is nothing extraordinary in what he does. There is so much potential in harming yourself by believing you have to hurry through life and push yourself to comprehend valuable information as fast as possible. Take your time and enjoy reading in your own pace. Set a goal for how much you want to read daily, but be realistic and finish the damn book from start to end

This is actually my approach to books on a shelf in a book store - it's how I decide if I want to buy it (without using a text marker, obviously). 😄 But if you managed to sensibly skim the Kahnemann book within two hours, then chapeau! Admittedly, I have the German version of it and reading German is a bit different from reading English.

One of the most iconic book behind you back "Steve Jobs." I read it cover to cover, it's a fantastic book.

The process of reading for me is enjoyable and a good way to learn the language (eng) as a non native speaker. So I prefer to read every single words of each book which allows me to make sure I get what it delivers

Books are the best friends "they never demand, nor complain"

You need to read word by word only if you are reading a story book, to get the complete experience and the imagination of the writer. But social and personality development books are numerous in this world. As jai said it is necessary to concentrate on only the topics you need. Idk why there is a lot of hatred in the comment section. One thing i disagree with jay is he said we don't need practice which is wrong. to analyze the book and to highlight the important points, it is going to definitely take a long time may by 3 or four days. Once asked in a interview to bill gates, "what super power you wanna possess?" he said the ability to read fast. There are millions of books in the world and we need to accept the method jay uses to read them faster. And some people in the comment talk about ncert and other school books, which sounds stupid. You are given a whole year to do that and as a student, it's your responsibility to read em. He obviously talks about the books on life.

Why humans have so much negativity. They watch to criticize but do not watch to gain something out of it. Speaking out in front of the camera to the whole world is a strength on its own, anyone can be strong enough to write all these unnecessary comments hiding behind their phones. So disgusted on people’s thoughts. Jay Shetty, you are an amazing person🧡

"Its's not about how many books you go through, it's about how many books go through you"

This is not reading. It is best to read 1 book per year rather than your method of 365 books. The purpose of reading is to gather knowledge and accumulate new ideas. In your case, reading many books just to tell others is the purpose. I personally read 1 book a week. It's the most efficient way.

I got your point 😊 We should skim through the main points of the book to understand what the book is about and if it is worth it to invest my time to read the whole book. It actually can help to get my ideas about a book before reading them so we can decide if we should read it or not, and if it is something I figure I need to read, then this time I am gonna read cover to cover which will add some real values in my life and there's more possibility of me using those Ideas to improve myself instead of halfheartedly finishing a book I don't like for the sake of finishing it. That’s my interpretation of this video and I think it only works for non-fiction. Thank You so much for putting the time and effort to make this video 😊💕 I'm gonna go watch some Tedtalks by some of the authors whose books were on my TBR list then read them

This makes me feel good and that I have been reading book correctly because I google and KZread books a lot before I read it!! Thanks for this 💕

I like to go quickly through informative books and take my time with novels.

The book 'How to read a Book' has some very interesting points I think you would like. There are 4 stages of reading and you are primarily focused on just the second stage (skimming reviewing etc. within a limited period of time that you have set for yourself). This can be powerful but stages 3 (reading in an unlimited amount of time to get the most out of a book) and 4 (reading multiple books at the same time on a specific area to critically analyse what you are reading and create ideas for yourself) are mind-blowing and will help you remember much more...

Hi Jay Just finished a book. Made me cry and gained so much from the book.

I really started to read books on a regular basis when i finished college to expand my mind.I am one of those who changed career (trying to) at 24 and now at 29 i have set a goal to read at least one book per month.I'm keen on biographies like the one of steve jobs you have on your backround(you ve become already a marketeer by reading this).These days im reading Phil Knight's autobiography.Keep up the good work!

Interesting to find out how to read a book. My old way of reading really took so long to finish a book, and sometimes couldn't even remember well after reading. Will try the method and thanks for sharing

I'm currently living with my parents and I disturb them all day by telling what I read everyday . I think unknowingly it is a great way to remember what you read. And now I’m currently about 80% through "Playbook to Millions by Grant Cardone. I have read a lot of entrepreneurial books and self improvement books, and this book is my absolute favorite. This book is extraordinary and really gets you to work extremely hard toward your goals in life and succeed at multiple different areas like personal finance, business and career. This is an absolute must buy if you need a push to get you going in business or you want more out of life.

YESSSS!!! This is awesome. I see Tools of Titans in the background. Such a great book.

i dont think its a good idea to read so many books in a year. makes no sense if you are not getting anything out of it instead of just flexing that you read that many books in a year. Maybe read just 12 books in a year and implement them in your life!

Think like a monk is one of the best book I hv ever read ❤️

Too many commets but I 'll leave my energy "footprint" here too. Yeeees! So inspiring. Bringing wisdom to people. This is like the BEST THING a human can do. Empowering and liberating

Would be great if you make a video of your favourite books of all time or anything like that

Fast reading is not my mission. I usually read only books with content I can learn from, so I take consciously time to digest each chapter (I understand that everyone's different and some people may digest it very fast) . I even run journals along with some of the books I read. I took a few months to complete "think like a monk" , because a) I am a mom 😜 and b) I took time to work through the book 📕📝👩‍🎓❤ and c) my motivation comes in waves 😆... To all who want to read fast, go for it 👍 Also I noticed : reading a book just to take it in is one thing but reading it and try to live and change one's life is another.

Why are you reading the book? *Don't ever rely on your willpower for reading a book rely on your love power* *Tiktok for KZread video on the specific book* *The sections that you find interesting* *Started chapter 1 and make your way through* *Use your finger and move faster* Do you really looked at words randomly and make up a sentence for reading a book? *Look at how much you can learn not how much you can read*

This is how to skim a book not read it. Lol I think if everyone’s doing this they are giving themselves way too much credit by calling it reading. More like yeah I skimmed through a book a day for 365 Days still sounds good. But that isn’t reading the book. Think of how the author feels about it too.

Speed Reading works. It’s not skimming just because you don’t understand it. www.huffingtonpost.com/quora/does-speed-reading-really_b_5883264.html As far as skipping through the book, you’re 100% correct. If you don’t read the whole book, can you really say you read the book? If I read just the title and headlines of an article, can I say I read the article? No. His statement that "we praise ourselves for how much we accomplish rather than how much we learn” is SO true though...

Andrew Hall speed reading working or not working is opinion. Personally from my research on it awhile back it’s near pointless for your memory Retention drops dramatically. And patting yourself on the back for pointless accomplishments is how one becomes inflated. In ego that is. That just leads to interjecting your superiority on others to prove you are great or recalibration to what you truly and really are. And maybe that’s just a slow reader. And that’s ok... haha

I'm with you Jay in making wisdom go viral..

I commit at least an hour a day to reading a book. By reading I don’t literally read it. I search for audio books on KZread and listen to it during my less active hours. These less active hours could be while I’m cooking, having a walk, cleaning, shopping, working out, waiting in line somewhere, on a bus, in a taxi etc I listen through my EarPod when at a public place and listen on loudspeaker while at home. When I first started this strategy I was amazed at how many hours a day are less active. So instead of just endlessly scrolling through social media, I channel those less active period into personal development and continuous learning.

If I buy the book I’m gonna read the book

Hey, if you want to read a book a day, not because you like reading but because you want to learn or whatever ( which is the only reason I see for speed reading ) then just read the bloody synopsis of the book. From my perspective the only reason you'd want to read like this would be to show off and maybe have this conversation: "Woah, you've got so many books!" "Yeah, I mean, I just love reading" Like why? If you want to read you read. If you don't want to read you don't.
