Great tips and great that it seems to make your life better! Though i must say, it sounds a little bit unhealthy to me, for two reasons I used to have an audiobook listening habit like that, but i quickly foundyself constantly needing some sort lf entertainment and yearned for constant 'dopamin hits' Nowadays I try to deliberately concentrate on what i am doing, without any distraction, because for some time i was unable to do that and i must say, being able to enjoy life without constant background noise is (to me) a lot better and feels healthier! Second, I think seeing books just as numbers amd constantly pressuring yourself to be more productive misses the point of what a book is supposed to be and projects the unhealthy mindset of maximazing productivity and numbers at all costs, which most of us live by day to day, onto books. Books shouldn't just be numbers, they should be seen for the work of art or information they are. And the hours after I finished a book, where i reflect and think about it are the most important, most meaningful ones to me. Still, good video, i see the point 👍

Thanks for the great comment. I have to say I broadly agree. I won’t be doing this for the rest of my life 😂
