1. Readers or Listener

• It’s very easy to figure this out
• If when you listen to an audiobook you can remember and understand things better then you are a listener
• If when you read a book you can understand everything then you are a reader

But this also Not that important sometimes:

• Whether you’re are reading or listing, at some point you will lose focus, you will not walk away always capturing everything
• And if you’re are not good at reading, if you keep reading and you’re are a-listers eventually you will get better at reading, just like I did
• But I always recommend you start with what comes easier to you, to then work on the hard things.

An ideal day for me is 1 hour of the audiobook at the gym and 2-4 hours of reading at home. ( audiobooks are hard to read when you doing nothing because it’s so easy to get distracted )

Tip: don’t overthink it, and try both.

2. what books to read ( what you like and what benefits you ) – not everything that’s good for you will like though

• so I would do a mix ratio of 50-50 when first starting because eventually, you will start to like what benefits you more
• it’s like when you start eating good, and then you feel great and you try some McDonalds and your body has a meltdown.
• So when I first started I would try to read books I liked but always read a book that benefited me

Step by Step:

• Figure out what you like and interested in learning about
• My first books self-help books to change the way the way I think and my reactions to situations
• Then I focused on action books, that provide knowledge that you can go and easily apply it.

Tip: it’s okay to read drama, science fiction and so, but that’s the equivalent of watching a movie. So consider it entertainment.

3. how many hours ( creating a schedule )

• this depends on the type of person you are and what you do with your day

Absolute beginners:

• you’ll need to set three things up: where you will read, what time you will read and what date you will read
• so if I say I’m going to read 10 pages in the morning at around 7am, at my house before I go to work, you will eventually build that habit
• and eventually, you will want to read more than 10 pages

Extreme like I was:

• get audiobooks and normal books, and spend transportation time reading them, working time hearing them, and every block that you would usually waste on those books
• and not every book is equal but you have to be willing to read the books you disagree with, to get a full understand of the problems
• but some books are trash, and you instantly know, this is not something I want to read.

1. how much to spend ( money wise )

• you can actually overspend on books for sure
• if you’ve read 10 books, but haven’t tried anything or applied anything and just doing research and research
• you need to stop and start applying

For example:

• a lot of people read about stocks, but never even start investing
• when I started learning about stocks and grab some cash and tried out what I learned
• now obviously I didn’t take all the money I had, I tried it out with a small amount that I could afford to lose
• and today with 100 you can literally by fractional shares of any company.

1. funny stories

• the way I see books, is like having the ability to live someone entire life, without having to do all the mistakes
• I’ve read so many books, that I have the knowledge of men and women that centuries older than me, because some of them do obviously not hear any more
• And it’s also like adding files to your brain, so when a situation happens, you know what to do.

Hey friends, in this video I’ll give you a complete breakdown of how to get started with investing your hard earned cash, what various terms mean in the financial world and how to avoid taking high risks.

I created a productivity system a few years back to help me accomplish my ambitious goals, develop awesome habits, and stay on top of my weekly to-dos. I call it the Magic Whiteboard because everything I seem to add to it somehow turns into reality. I think it can be for you to so I want to share this goal-setting system with you as you go into the new year.

The new Year is right around the corner and I’m sure you’re thinking about your new year’s resolutions. I say FORGET RESOLUTIONS and set goals instead. In this video, I’m going to break down my 360 Goal System so you can simply and effectively set your very own goals for the new year.
