He doesn't read to get things done

📝 Transcript

If you read fifty books a year and nothing changed, the problem isn't the number. Lee Dong-jin, the critic famous for his huge library, doesn't read for productivity at all. He reads slowly, underlines and annotates, and re-reads the books he loves. That's deep reading. But deep reading leaves one gap, and if you skip it, life stays the same. That gap is action. So when you close a book, choose one sentence you refuse to forget, and turn it into one thing you can do this week. Then attach it to a habit you already have. Right now, write down one action from the last book you read.
