You are what you read.
You can basically tell everything about a person from the books they’ve read.
The kind of information you consume is most likely what you are.
If you see a lot of videos related to writing, you might really be into writing or might want to start developing this skill.
If you read my articles, you probably think a lot about self-improvement and personal growth.
If your feed is filled with tech and programming videos, that obviously means you want to know more about that world.
Why did you stop reading?
Reading is hard.
It requires attention. It requires time.
We don’t have a lot of those things.
Now, we have many different easier ways to consume information, from videos to articles to podcasts.
There are so many ‘better’ alternatives to reading.
But I believe nothing can ever beat reading when it comes to learning about a new topic or consuming the right content.
Why?
A book is the whole life research of a person’s knowledge. You basically get access to all the knowledge a person has gathered in their whole life.
