The unique way Naval reads books:

PS: If you're looking for a good book to read I put together a list of the 100 most impactful books I’ve read. Get the list here:

@naval "It's about understanding concepts." 💯

@naval This changed my life when I first heard it. The freedom lens applied to everything.

@naval love to hear that Sambid!

@naval only read a nonfiction book front to back if the first 4 chapters really speak to you otherwise skim way to much knowledge to force yourself through some dull shit for the sake of checking a box on Goodreads

@naval So I’m not crazy — do the damn same thing. Then end up finishing a whole bunch at the same time sometime in the future.

@naval Interesting but don’t think this is a good reading approach for most people.

@naval

@naval I absolutely loved to hear that. Takes away the guilt of not finishing every inch of a book just to say (to myself, really) I read it.

@naval I agree with his points. Personally I only drop a book if I think it's just so absolutely terrible it's not worth finishing. I like to get my repetition by learning the same thing from different books / authors Like I've probably learned one concept over in 3 programming books
