A Guide To Deeper Reading (Full Step-By-Step Walkthrough)
Read alongside me, to gain more knowledge from every paragraph you read from now on.
Nobody is reading anymore… which does not make much sense to me.
Most people are outsourcing all their thinking to a machine.
Which, generates tons of information to be read, in which those same people are not even reading all of it.
Not deeply.
Not even shallowly.
If you think this does not concern you, if you are done school and have ‘completed’ education, if you don’t like reading books, or even if you are a writer or creative (like me) who loves using AI and building things with your unique knowledge.
You are mistaken, my friend.
This is everyone’s problem.
Why?
Reading is thinking.
You read not to consume, but to think.
Thinking is becoming a dying craft.
Which also means learning to think, and therefore learning to read, is becoming the new competitive edge you must start developing right now. No matter your field, career, life situation and excuses.
The new edge is learning to slow down.
With the world speeding up with more content, more AI, more output, the best thing you can do is learn to slow down. Slow down your thinking. Because fast thinking means faster, more shallow decisions, and decisions are what dictate all outcomes of your life. Especially if you are building a meaningful body of work. Every needle you decide to move (and what not to move) is a life-changing matter.
This guide is about pure execution.
I don’t like gatekeeping knowledge, and I do try my best to give away everything I know for free in my newsletter, so I want this paid post (and future paid posts) to be focused on action.
Which is important.
If you behaviour has not changed, you have not learned anything.
I will be doing a live walkthrough that you can follow along. There will be little to no theory, and everything I write beneath this section will be unedited, raw, and will represent me thinking aloud on paper, as I am reading, for you to see.
Think of this as listening to me think out loud while reading beside you... but on paper, to see how I think (which won’t be great haha)
So yeah, more paid execution/action-orientated guides coming.
Here is the paragraph we will be doing some profound thinking about today.
