Creator Walt Disney enticed us with this statement, “There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate’s loot on Treasure Island.”
So what’s stopping you now from building a new reading habit?

My biggest regret is that I stopped reading at the age of 12/13, i.e. when teens get swallowed up by social media. There's a solid ten year gap between being able to inhale books on the daily and now having no attention span for videos longer than 6 seconds. I'm now 24 doing a master's and struggling to understand the elaborate 20th century jargon that I used to read for enjoyment as a child. If you have young children, the best thing you can do is get them a library card and get them to spend a couple hours there a week! So many adventures to be had in one place.
I'm in exactly the same boat as you - when once I used to buy a new book for every bookshop visit, now I can't remember the last time I bought one, because I keep remembering the books on my shelf that I haven't read. Even fantasy fiction is difficult to sustain my attention span these days.
Brother same
When i was 15 I stopped reading because of school pressure, now i see how much could have been gained
I started reading at 13
I’ve been reading a lot more lately and spending less time on social media. It’s been such a relief for me mentally!
My parents read the three of us kids to sleep with Shakespeare, Byron, and Robert Louis Stevenson. Got my first library card when I was 4. I can't recommend reading enough.
Books I read this year:
- Dress Like a Man (ebook) -- Antonio Centeno
- 12 Rules for Life - An antidote to Chaos -- Jordan B Peterson
- Beyond Order - 12 More Rules for Life -- Jordan B Peterson
- Discipline Equals Freedom - Jocko Willink
Books that read in the past two years or so
- The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck - Mark Manson
- Everything Is F*cked - Mark Manson
- How to Not Die Alone - Logan Ury
On my reading list
- Living Nonviolent Communication - Marshall Rosenberg (having an hard time finish this because some of the dialog examples annoy me like crazy!)
- Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds - David Goggins
- Make Your Bed - William H. Mcraven
- How To Win Friends And Influence People - Carnegie, Dale
- The Coddling of the American Mind - Greg Lukianoff & Jonathan Haidt
And a few more.
And buddy of mine recommended; "Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention--and How to Think Deeply Again" - Johann Hari
Recently cut back on social media and started reading, sadly only have time for audiobooks. But i’ve made it through Clash of Kings and nearing the end of Storm of Swords! It has done wonders for my ability to focus.
Do you feel like your lacking, in benefits, while listening to audio, as opposed to reading?
How can I become articulate?
@@SirDrey-lw9si read. Read. READ. You have to make it a daily habit, and do it more than twice a day
@@SirDrey-lw9si read AND write. Any type of book you choose. Write about them, take notes, journal or anything as such. Communicate with people while others are near.
Read Atomic Habits by James Clear. Highly Recommended!
This is such convenient timing I was just lately considering picking up a reading habit but didn't know how I would do that! :D
EVERY FAMILY HAS SOMEONE WHO BREAKS THE CHAIN OF POVERTY IN THAT FAMILY,I PRAY YOU BE THE ONE
For me, personally, I don't like reading simply because school made me hate it. I hope that one day I'll find a great book and undo the trauma school has left me
I am really bad at drawing or sketching but I became your channel’s fan now for a few days. while I am watching your videos, it make me interested in drawing unconsciously even though the content is not about drawing at all lol
Really satisfied with your channel! Thx you !
I will apply all the techniques.
I love my Kindle. It's a game changer.
I stopped reading in my early twenties and I regret it. I’ve given up social media (FB/IG) but YT has me in a chokehold.
Great video, whats the name of the app used to animate the video?

@@TheArtofImprovement Thanks for the insight!
The theory of the 50 days to make a habit it's Just a thoery tho. It's actually more complicated.
Farinheit 451......read it!
Why most people will be in the category of "most people"
Is it too late to develop this habit? I'm already in my 30's. 😢
If u got time that’s all you need man. 🙃🫡 never to late

Been reading the greatest book ever written. It's about His story.
It's a fairytale
Is the part about slavery your favorite part?
A well-respected work of fiction, certainly.
@@dannyspitzer1267 Try reading the Bible yourself and asking God to show you the truth. Don't listen to all the legalism and other nonsense many fake Christians(like the Poop) have told you.
I would be angry too if I thought that nonsense was what God actually said. And that's precisely why they say those unbiblical things and pretend it is biblical.
@@dannyspitzer1267 Jesus came to set the captives free. In the Old Testament aka Torah, Moses was sent to free the Israelites and anyone else who wanted to follow, no matter where they came from. Egypt was an empire and hence had many slaves from many kingdoms. God is very anti-slavery. don't confuse God stating what happened with condoning it.
Luke 4:18
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

good video! however, telling someone who does not have a good reading habit to read 2 hours/da, is not good advice.
those who want to read more will hear that, & become overwhelmed before they even start. rather, tell them to start with 1-2 chapters a day. they will see themselves constantly achieving their goals & be motivated to up the goal!
1st one to like
First
2 hours a day is too much...
To be fair, so is 2 hours of screen time everyday.
Although going slow and starting small is always better, and any amount of reading is beneficial. 🙂
Wow. The sound of voice is so annoying. The tips are fine but it’s a struggle get through it because of your voice.
Thankfully the over 800K subs disagree 🍾
Comments are comedy 😀
Is it appropriate to uncritically quote known transphobes?
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Cry harder!
That liberal-woke puritan mindset is dangerous my friend. Is the content of an author not credible automatically if they happen to be transphobic? We dont have the right to censor or change the legacy of those who came before us, it would be no different the burning books outright. it is easier to attack someones character than hearing what they have to say on a particular subject, we arent perfect.
