A Thread - What to read in 2021?
Wisdom via @EricJorgenson via @naval via @illacertus... from @Navalmanack a book I’ll be rereading in 2021.
Here’s why.
“I don’t want to read everything. I just want to read the 100 great books over and over again.” - @illacertus
“I think there’s a lot to that idea. It’s really more about identifying the great books for you because different books speak to different people. Then, you can really absorb those.” - @naval
It was a few years back I started thinking about the idea of rereading books vs trying to “keep up” with the constant consumption of new material rolling off the book publisher’s assembly lines.
I believe the consept first landed on my radar from that very @farnamstreet podcast where @naval shared the quote referenced above.
It immediately made sense to me.
It’s crazy to think about how much the world has evolved in just the last decade.
Technology is creating shorter attention spans with the constant bombardment of bite-sized “click bait” headlines and iPhone notifications.
