Why and how to read more books!

2025 wasn't a particularly good year for me in terms of reading compared to previous years.

This year I'm taking deliberate steps to counter this and read atleast 10 books this year.

First step in this is taking inspiration from authors like Cal Newport and Ryan Holiday and really push myself to start the reading habit again.

Will share my reading progress here as I go along.

I listened to a podcast on Bill Gates and his reading habit. And this came up in my notes.
=======================
“If you wanna learn, just read the damn books”, ujar Bill.

Saya baru saja mendengarkan podcast menarik dengan Bill Gates. Dia bercerita tentang hobi membacanya dan bagaimana dia mengembangkan kebiasaan membaca. Dari diskusi itu saya berhasil menarik beberapa pesan dari Bill Gates tentang kebiasannya membaca:

- Buat catatan di pinggir buku: Dengan menulis catatan, kita bisa lebih aktif saat membaca dan lebih mudah mengingat hal-hal penting. Cara ini membuat membaca jadi seperti mengobrol dengan penulisnya.

- Pilih buku cetak daripada buku digital: Memegang buku langsung dan membalik halamannya membuat kita lebih fokus dan lebih mudah mengingat isinya. Kita juga jadi tidak mudah terganggu. Ini subjektif, tapi bisa jadi dirasakan oleh banyak orang.

- Luangkan waktu khusus untuk membaca: Jadikan membaca sebagai kegiatan penting sehari-hari, sama seperti kegiatan penting lainnya dalam hidup kita.

- Utamakan buku non-fiksi: Buku non-fiksi membantu kita mendapat pengetahuan baru tentang dunia. Dengan begitu, cara pandang kita bisa berkembang dan kita mendapat pembelajaran yang berguna. Tentu saran Bill Gates ini bukanlah larangan bagi Anda untuk membaca buku fiksi. 😃 #readinghabit #sketchnotes #billgates

#AcademicTwitter Do U know that U cannot write just by thinking about UR project or staring at UR monitor, even though U set that goal in UR mind & put all the sticky notes everywhere to remind U of UR goals?

I wish it were possible!

As #JamedClear says, "Goals are good for setting a direction, but systems are best for making progress. A handful of problems arise when you spend too much time thinking about your goals and not enough time designing your systems."

#AcademicTwitter Some spent days, weeks, months, & years building accounts & communities on Twitter. It seems the time is coming to kill that bird and raise a mastodon instead. I don't feel like raising both!
