On #worldbookday, I thought it
might bring you reward if I
walked you my process around
receiving the knowledge from
books.

So here we
go.

When ipick up a book I study the


front and back cover. Then l scan the
table of contents to get a sense of
where this is going.

Next, I block out a clear space of


time and clean up all distractions. I
read with deep focus, not to snack
on content. Because buildinga
"content-snacking brain" will yield a
snacking sort of life.

When I read, I read slowly and


deliberately. I highlight, generally with a
red felt marker (yes you can highlight the
eBook and yes you can use audiobooks;
which have served me so well for
decades).

Ialso make notes in the margins and do


diagrams on those few pages at the end
that publishers leave blank. Live and
breathe your experience with the book.

Let it change you.

On finishing a book, I write out the best


insights in my journal. What you capture
becomes cemented.

Finally, l take the notes and make them


into game charts and dream sheets. I
crunch the information and build them
into clear plans and implementation
steps.

Then I get to work on them.
