1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,638
hey what's going on friends so today we

2
00:00:01,599 --> 00:00:02,720
are answering a question that i've

3
00:00:02,638 --> 00:00:04,001
gotten asked quite a few times over the

4
00:00:04,318 --> 00:00:05,761
years which is what is the best format

5
00:00:06,639 --> 00:00:10,959
to read books in physical books ebooks

6
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,639
or

7
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,839
audiobooks where i guess you aren't

8
00:00:12,638 --> 00:00:15,678
actually reading the book but you are

9
00:00:13,839 --> 00:00:17,519
still in taking it well i'm gonna save

10
00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:19,839
you the horse race here because in my

11
00:00:17,519 --> 00:00:21,277
experience i use all three formats and

12
00:00:19,839 --> 00:00:23,358
all three of these can be perfectly

13
00:00:21,278 --> 00:00:26,159
viable ways to intake a book but

14
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:28,240
depending on how you are reading and the

15
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,160
purpose of your reading one of the three

16
00:00:28,239 --> 00:00:31,759
might have a slight edge over the others

17
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,039
so that's kind of what i want to go into

18
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,760
in this video and i'm not going to break

19
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:37,838
this video down by the format itself and

20
00:00:35,759 --> 00:00:39,999
section out that way instead i want to

21
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,599
look at the purpose for which we read

22
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,078
because i think there are four main

23
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,439
purposes for why we pick up a book first

24
00:00:44,079 --> 00:00:47,680
and foremost we sometimes read for

25
00:00:45,439 --> 00:00:49,759
relaxation we read for escapism we just

26
00:00:47,679 --> 00:00:52,318
want to have fun through reading we may

27
00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:54,159
also read to widen our learning our base

28
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,280
of knowledge or to widen our tea if you

29
00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:57,279
want to think about it that way the

30
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,358
concept of a t-shaped person where you

31
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,440
have deep knowledge in one area then

32
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:04,158
wide expansive knowledge and many other

33
00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:06,078
areas as well you may also read for deep

34
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:07,1000
learning to deeply understand a topic

35
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:09,918
and finally you might read for reference

36
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,279
for research for a specific purpose

37
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,199
where you're trying to pull knowledge

38
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,799
out of a book and apply it to something

39
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,400
you're trying to do so for each of these

40
00:01:14,799 --> 00:01:18,560
four different purposes what is the best

41
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,478
format to choose well again i think it

42
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,159
really comes down to what you enjoy

43
00:01:20,478 --> 00:01:24,079
using all the edges that we're gonna be

44
00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:25,759
talking here are the advantages i think

45
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:27,838
they're slight for the most part and

46
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:30,079
ultimately reading and the format you

47
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,840
choose to read in is just like exercise

48
00:01:30,078 --> 00:01:33,679
there's no perfect routine because the

49
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,679
best overall routine is the one that you

50
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,680
enjoy and the one that you will stick to

51
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,1000
for the first purpose for reading for

52
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,1000
escapism and for fun what is the best

53
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,240
format well i think in general the best

54
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,078
format here is physical books there's

55
00:01:44,239 --> 00:01:47,518
some actual research behind this now the

56
00:01:46,078 --> 00:01:49,598
first study that we looked at for this

57
00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:51,438
video was albeit pretty small in terms

58
00:01:49,599 --> 00:01:53,999
of sample size but they did find that

59
00:01:51,438 --> 00:01:55,519
versus ebooks people who read physical

60
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,040
books were actually better able to

61
00:01:55,519 --> 00:01:58,958
remember the order in which things

62
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,280
happened in a story there might be

63
00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:02,959
something to the physical tactile

64
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,799
sensations you get through reading a

65
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:07,039
book the you know the act of turning a

66
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,160
page the act of remembering which side

67
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,160
of the book you were looking at when

68
00:02:08,159 --> 00:02:12,078
something happened that allows you to

69
00:02:10,159 --> 00:02:14,159
have a little bit better memory of what

70
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,318
went on than when you're just looking at

71
00:02:14,159 --> 00:02:18,317
an ipad screen or a kindle screen just

72
00:02:16,318 --> 00:02:19,758
scrolling through in my case a

73
00:02:18,318 --> 00:02:21,278
never-ending wall of text because i

74
00:02:19,759 --> 00:02:22,957
typically use the scrolling mode on the

75
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,039
kindle app another potential downside to

76
00:02:22,959 --> 00:02:27,359
ebooks in particular is the fact that we

77
00:02:25,039 --> 00:02:29,279
often read them on tablets and even the

78
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,199
kindle devices have web browser built in

79
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,039
albeit not a very good one and we have

80
00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:34,719
access to additional information

81
00:02:33,039 --> 00:02:36,478
additional things we can do with our

82
00:02:34,719 --> 00:02:38,638
device it gets a little bit harder to

83
00:02:36,479 --> 00:02:40,639
really sink into the world of the book

84
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,278
and to really feel like you are reading

85
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,839
for fun to get lost in the story now

86
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,440
what about audiobooks for fun reading

87
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,719
for escapism there are quite a few

88
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:49,919
audiobooks i've actually gone through in

89
00:02:48,719 --> 00:02:51,517
terms of fiction that i've really

90
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,958
enjoyed specifically the one that keeps

91
00:02:51,519 --> 00:02:55,759
coming to mind for me while i film this

92
00:02:52,959 --> 00:02:57,840
video is the martian by andy weir and i

93
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:59,198
have the old rc bray narrated version

94
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,479
that they no longer have on audible

95
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:04,317
which is absolutely amazing but i also

96
00:03:02,479 --> 00:03:06,079
know that i typically listen to

97
00:03:04,318 --> 00:03:08,399
audiobooks when i'm doing things when

98
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,318
i'm riding my bike or walking to work or

99
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,158
doing chores around the house and

100
00:03:10,318 --> 00:03:13,838
because i'm also doing something else

101
00:03:12,158 --> 00:03:15,359
that takes a little bit of my attention

102
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,199
not a ton but a little bit they're gonna

103
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,560
be pieces that i just sort of tune out

104
00:03:17,199 --> 00:03:19,759
for i'm gonna have to navigate a road

105
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,280
crossing or something and that means i'm

106
00:03:19,759 --> 00:03:23,598
not getting every single bit of the

107
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,440
story and i'm not totally immersed so

108
00:03:23,598 --> 00:03:28,317
again i think the edge really goes to

109
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:30,158
paper books for escapism style reading

110
00:03:28,318 --> 00:03:32,237
now what about widening your tea

111
00:03:30,158 --> 00:03:33,919
widening your base of knowledge well

112
00:03:32,239 --> 00:03:35,199
like i said earlier the concept of being

113
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,597
a t-shaped person means that you've

114
00:03:35,199 --> 00:03:40,078
built deep expertise in at least one

115
00:03:37,598 --> 00:03:42,237
area but then you're also reading to

116
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:45,040
widen your array of knowledge across a

117
00:03:42,239 --> 00:03:47,200
broad variety of topics and for doing

118
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:48,958
that again these are small edges we're

119
00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:50,478
talking about here but i actually am

120
00:03:48,959 --> 00:03:52,399
personally going to give the edge to

121
00:03:50,479 --> 00:03:54,479
audio books and that is because for this

122
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,119
purpose for just trying to widen your

123
00:03:54,479 --> 00:04:00,078
base of knowledge that need for complete

124
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,318
immersion is less important and i'm a

125
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,599
busy guy i've got a lot of things i have

126
00:04:02,318 --> 00:04:05,119
to do around the house a lot of time i

127
00:04:03,598 --> 00:04:07,359
have to walk to work every single day

128
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,360
there's time throughout the day where i

129
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,199
have to do something where my attention

130
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,719
isn't completely taken up and i might

131
00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:14,399
otherwise just listen to podcasts or

132
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:16,957
spotify or just find something to listen

133
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,720
to on youtube but i can also select a

134
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,560
book and i can broaden my knowledge on

135
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,400
something in a pretty shallow way that's

136
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,839
still interesting and enlightening using

137
00:04:22,399 --> 00:04:25,519
an audiobook for example i've been

138
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,039
riding my bike to work over the past few

139
00:04:25,519 --> 00:04:29,278
months listening to bill bryson's book

140
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,520
on the human body and i don't feel that

141
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,638
i need a complete and super deep

142
00:04:31,519 --> 00:04:34,638
understanding of all these different

143
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:36,559
structures i just want to learn for

144
00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:38,959
learning's sake so the audiobook format

145
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,638
is perfect for that purpose now aside

146
00:04:38,959 --> 00:04:42,798
from audiobooks i don't think there's a

147
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:44,240
huge edge between ebooks and physical

148
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,079
books when it comes to this type of

149
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,759
learning i might give a slight nod to

150
00:04:46,079 --> 00:04:50,079
ebooks simply because it is typically

151
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:51,759
easier to get a new book on a whim and

152
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:53,757
there are even library programs that

153
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:55,600
will let you borrow ebooks on your

154
00:04:53,759 --> 00:04:57,198
electronic devices so it's just easier

155
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,039
to get your hands on an ebook when you

156
00:04:57,199 --> 00:05:00,638
want to read something on a whim now one

157
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,560
area where i definitely think ebooks

158
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:04,478
have the clear advantage is when you're

159
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,240
reading for the purposes of research and

160
00:05:04,478 --> 00:05:08,079
reference when you're trying to pull

161
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,440
knowledge out of a book and actually do

162
00:05:08,079 --> 00:05:12,079
something with it synthesize the

163
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:13,757
information and write a book report or

164
00:05:12,079 --> 00:05:15,518
in my case the huge video that i'm

165
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:17,038
working on for later this month is an

166
00:05:15,519 --> 00:05:18,559
ultimate guide to using credit cards

167
00:05:17,038 --> 00:05:20,159
i've been trying to pull information out

168
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,999
of several different sources including

169
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,519
books and synthesize into something that

170
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,839
i can present to this channel and

171
00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:27,757
present it to my blog as well so i need

172
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,917
to pull accurate information i need to

173
00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:32,159
collect it and i think ebooks definitely

174
00:05:29,918 --> 00:05:34,477
make this process easier not least which

175
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,918
because you can search an ebook you can

176
00:05:34,478 --> 00:05:37,358
easily bring up a little search field

177
00:05:35,918 --> 00:05:39,358
and you can type in a term and see where

178
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,440
it pops up in the book additionally

179
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,279
highlighting and taking notes is quite a

180
00:05:41,439 --> 00:05:45,197
bit easier with ebooks on the kindle app

181
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,399
for example you can just use your finger

182
00:05:45,199 --> 00:05:48,560
and create a highlight and those

183
00:05:46,399 --> 00:05:50,238
highlights actually get collected in a

184
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,080
centralized location within the book

185
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,599
whereas with a paper book there are

186
00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:54,958
definitely ways to highlight i made an

187
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,399
entire video about how i highlight and

188
00:05:54,959 --> 00:05:58,878
take notes from books that you can watch

189
00:05:56,399 --> 00:06:00,879
after this one but it's kind of harder

190
00:05:58,879 --> 00:06:02,318
to go find those highlights you don't

191
00:06:00,879 --> 00:06:04,318
know where they are you can't search

192
00:06:02,319 --> 00:06:05,919
them and it's a little bit harder to

193
00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:07,758
collect the information from them than

194
00:06:05,918 --> 00:06:09,599
it is with say a kindle book

195
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:11,038
additionally you can go even further

196
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,720
than simply highlighting in the kindle

197
00:06:11,038 --> 00:06:14,558
app and the ibooks app because there is

198
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,400
an app that i use every day called read

199
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,919
wise and what read wise does is it

200
00:06:16,399 --> 00:06:19,758
basically just collects your highlights

201
00:06:17,918 --> 00:06:21,838
from kindle books but also from articles

202
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:23,198
from tweets from certain podcast apps

203
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,519
and it keeps them in a central

204
00:06:23,199 --> 00:06:27,280
repository and it goes one step further

205
00:06:25,519 --> 00:06:29,278
because they have a public api where you

206
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:32,798
can export your highlights to apps like

207
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:35,118
obsidian rome and in my case notion so i

208
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,800
use read wise for the express purpose of

209
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,879
getting my highlights from kindle books

210
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,719
and from other sources into a notion

211
00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:42,879
database from there i can add notes to

212
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,240
them and i can even use synced blocks to

213
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:46,079
bring those highlights and those little

214
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,400
passages that i'm using for research

215
00:06:46,079 --> 00:06:49,998
into the video script and research areas

216
00:06:48,399 --> 00:06:51,918
that i'm working on now to be fair to

217
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,198
paper books there is also a read wise

218
00:06:51,918 --> 00:06:54,719
app for mobile devices where you can

219
00:06:53,199 --> 00:06:56,560
actually take a picture of the printed

220
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,079
page and it has that optical character

221
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,758
recognition technology so you can

222
00:06:58,079 --> 00:07:01,918
actually create a read-wise highlight

223
00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:03,919
from a paper book but it is a little bit

224
00:07:01,918 --> 00:07:06,078
of a slower and more friction full

225
00:07:03,918 --> 00:07:07,358
process than just creating a very quick

226
00:07:06,079 --> 00:07:09,119
highlight in the kindle app and that

227
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,638
brings us to our final purpose for

228
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,720
reading which is reading for deep

229
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:14,639
understanding as opposed to that wide

230
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,079
understanding that builds the horizontal

231
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:18,240
part of your tee we're talking now about

232
00:07:16,079 --> 00:07:20,159
that vertical bar building really deep

233
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,759
understanding of a specific topic and

234
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,918
here i think the edge actually goes back

235
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:26,318
to paper books specifically because they

236
00:07:23,918 --> 00:07:28,719
make it so much easier to focus not get

237
00:07:26,319 --> 00:07:30,559
distracted by whatever else is on your

238
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,559
device it's just a little bit easier to

239
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,880
maintain focus on a paper book at least

240
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,240
in my experience than it is on an ebook

241
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:37,999
when you're trying to read for deep

242
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,478
understanding and not necessarily trying

243
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,479
to pull out references for a research

244
00:07:40,478 --> 00:07:44,478
project though there is a potential

245
00:07:42,478 --> 00:07:47,119
alternative so recently a friend gifted

246
00:07:44,478 --> 00:07:48,958
me the ebook version of alex ramos's 100

247
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,720
million dollar offers and right in the

248
00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:52,238
first chapter he mentions that a trick

249
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,559
he uses is actually getting the

250
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,039
audiobook version and listening to it

251
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,680
while following along in the print or

252
00:07:57,038 --> 00:08:01,038
the ebook version as well and he says it

253
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,519
actually helps him read faster because

254
00:08:01,038 --> 00:08:05,518
it helps him to pay attention to the

255
00:08:03,519 --> 00:08:07,358
ebook for a lot longer now i do want to

256
00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:09,197
mention that if you do this it's

257
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,360
probably not going to make you read

258
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:13,359
faster from an objective sense and that

259
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,279
is because ebooks are typically narrated

260
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,799
at about an average of 150 words per

261
00:08:15,279 --> 00:08:18,558
minute whereas skilled readers who are

262
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,559
reading silently to themselves and not

263
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,560
subvocalizing can typically read between

264
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,399
200 and 400 words per minute without

265
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,919
losing a lot of comprehension so unless

266
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:28,079
you want to set the audiobook to 2x

267
00:08:25,918 --> 00:08:29,598
speed which does not sound very pleasant

268
00:08:28,079 --> 00:08:31,438
to me you're probably going to end up

269
00:08:29,598 --> 00:08:32,957
actually reading a little bit slower

270
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:35,198
than you would if you were just silently

271
00:08:32,958 --> 00:08:37,118
reading to yourself but if the focus

272
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,639
benefit is there it might be a useful

273
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,760
strategy for you now one thing i want to

274
00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:41,359
mention that doesn't really fit into any

275
00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:43,198
of these specific categories is that

276
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,880
ebooks do have a clear advantage over

277
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,240
many print books and the fact that they

278
00:08:44,879 --> 00:08:47,758
are more accessible because you can

279
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,440
easily change the font size you can

280
00:08:47,759 --> 00:08:51,598
switch things into dark mode you have a

281
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,359
lot of options there so again at the end

282
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,959
of the day the format that works best

283
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,880
for you is going to be the one that is

284
00:08:54,958 --> 00:08:58,878
number one most accessible to you but

285
00:08:56,879 --> 00:09:00,318
number two is the one that you enjoy

286
00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:02,079
reading so hopefully this has broken

287
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,920
down a few of the different potential

288
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,919
technological advantages format

289
00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:07,518
advantages and focus advantages but

290
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:08,958
again ultimately the kind of format that

291
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:10,880
you enjoy the most is going to be the

292
00:09:08,958 --> 00:09:12,639
best one the majority of the time it's

293
00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:14,318
also worth noting that the format of the

294
00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:16,558
books you read really isn't the most

295
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,398
important factor to reading more often

296
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,799
reading more deeply that is building a

297
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:22,799
reading habit which in my experience is

298
00:09:20,799 --> 00:09:25,039
pretty easy to fall out of but it's also

299
00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:26,638
possible to get back into as well one

300
00:09:25,039 --> 00:09:28,318
useful tactic that i've used in the past

301
00:09:26,639 --> 00:09:29,918
is a 90-day reading challenge

302
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,360
essentially i told my friend martin hey

303
00:09:29,919 --> 00:09:33,278
i'm going to read non-fiction every

304
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,199
single day for the next 90 days if i

305
00:09:33,278 --> 00:09:36,718
don't i'm going to pay you 100 bucks and

306
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,079
i gave him a spreadsheet where i tracked

307
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,920
all my progress and he could follow

308
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,680
along every single day that was a very

309
00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:43,039
successful challenge i read 11 books

310
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,799
during those three months many of which

311
00:09:43,039 --> 00:09:46,798
i reference all the time on this channel

312
00:09:44,799 --> 00:09:48,718
and actually built my reading habit long

313
00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:49,919
term after that and there are a lot of

314
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,360
other tricks you can use for building

315
00:09:49,919 --> 00:09:52,879
long-term habits whether it's reading

316
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,239
more books or doing anything else you

317
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:55,599
want to do and if you want to learn

318
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,360
about some of those tricks you may want

319
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,760
to take my habit building class over on

320
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,398
skillshare this is a short one-hour but

321
00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:04,719
information-packed class on how to break

322
00:10:02,399 --> 00:10:06,240
down your goals into actionable daily

323
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,680
habits and then actually stick to them

324
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,039
long term which is probably something

325
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,278
you've been thinking about recently

326
00:10:09,039 --> 00:10:13,277
since this video is going live pretty

327
00:10:11,278 --> 00:10:14,639
close to january 1st so if you've got a

328
00:10:13,278 --> 00:10:15,758
habit you've been wanting to build or

329
00:10:14,639 --> 00:10:17,277
you've been trying to build you've been

330
00:10:15,759 --> 00:10:19,439
failing and you want to find some better

331
00:10:17,278 --> 00:10:20,798
tactics for getting it to actually stick

332
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,719
i think you're going to get a lot out of

333
00:10:20,799 --> 00:10:23,919

pretty good reads as well
