Why Choosing Not To Read Is Limiting Your Potential

Every year, the shelves are flooded with over 3 million new books. Despite this vast ocean of knowledge, the average American only manages to read four of them annually. Nick Hutchison, the author of "Rise of the Reader: Strategies for Mastering Your Reading Habits and Applying What You Learn," understands this challenge intimately. He's crafted a digital marketing agency dedicated to harnessing the power of reading to unlock human potential. In this episode, we discuss establishing an intention before delving into a book and the benefits of purposeful reading, applying effective techniques and frameworks to enhance your reading routine, Nick's top 5 all-time favorite books and his method of note-taking for organizing knowledge from the books he reads, and the fascinating changes in perspective following interviews with renowned authors such as Robert Greene and Ryan Holiday.
