📑 SUMMARY OF THE EPISODE 📑
In this episode, I talk about why you should read fewer books. The obsession with “quantifying wisdom” needs to stop.
We are going to look at 5 tips that, as a Philosophy PhD student and as a student of life, have proved to be insanely helpful!
Tip #1: Read about what is bothering you.
Tip #2: Read books to be changed, not just to get more information.
Tip #3: Study to discover truth, not to confirm preconceived ideas.
Tip #4: Pick the right book for the right season.
Tip #5 Create a space for learning in your life.
It means a lot when you give like and share the posts or videos with everybody. I want to do this long term, and it will be only possible with your support! Thank you so much!
