Give me 15 min, and I’ll show you how to remember EVERYTHING you read

[@clarkkegley]

As someone who suffers from quite severe adult ADHD there were some great takeaways from this video. I especially like the idea of writing and highlighting in the book, I have been to precious in the past. I also think the one / two page summary is a really good idea. The comment about reading 10 books 10 times is better than 100 books 1 time - this was my golden nugget from your video. Thanks.

Read the book & listen to the audiobook at the same time . Reading is always a relaxing time. Comfy chair , feet up , a blanket , cup of coffee,etc. I can’t be active!! No walking. Now I have to concentrate on where I’m going & my breathing & the audiobook becomes the white noise.

[@sunitafisher4758]

🌸 the funny thing is that I do have audio for books I have. That’s so cool, I will try that, thank you for sharing 😊

[@jladley]

I keep all of the good nuggets I've read in a journal. I like to find a good quote or piece of dialogue that sticks out to me and then write about how I can apply it to my life OR how it's similar to what I'm going through. And I don't just do this with self-help books. I always find thought-provoking insights in various types of non-fiction as well as novels. The fun part is re-reading the journal and seeing where my head was at!

[@cagsbaby]

I retain more info from books when I try and share facts, anecdotes or stories from whatever I'm reading with my friends and family. They may not want to hear what I'm learning about, but by trying to repeat and explain things it stays with me longer instead of forgetting it straight away.

[@rayzenyoutube_]

Its called the feynman technique!

[@yasirali_officiall1]

Maybe documenting what you have learned on video like KZbin is good Idea too that’s what I am planning to do in my second channel

[@Kate-so8wf]

After I read a book, I write down in my reading journal one main thing I resonate with / memorable to me. What I like to do is to take my reading to the next level, and I take upon something small that relates to what I resonated with into my routine.

[@sunitafisher4758]

🌸 this is very great tip, thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@Kate-so8wf]

@@sunitafisher4758 you're welcome

[@5-MinuteWisdom]

My best tip is to read aloud, this helps me stay in the present moment and quiet the voices in my head.✍🏽

[@wonverin]

Do you also like audiobooks?

[@flypackofficial3957]

I’m new to your channel and now obsessed! This video is very helpful. I want to start reading more but in the past I only read 20 pages than I quit. Just because it’s a best seller doesn’t mean I’ll enjoy it. And I can’t wait to rough up the pages, great point none of these books we buy are first additions. Thank you! Now I’m on to the next helpful video!

[@Guildmasterbob]

100% with you on audible, I do manual labor for work and I almost always have a book going and when I have physical books I challenge myself to have a mark on every page. Highlighter, underline, circled, a note, I try to add something to every page I read

[@Kitty_Leayr]

Yesterday was my birthday and so also the start of a new journal for me. I had one section left that I hadnt dedicated to anything, until now. I read heaps so the student section is perfect! Thanks for sharing your strategies and wisdom, I have learnt so much from your videos.

[@deepwork2]

best tip I can give people: think of possible and real life situations in which you can implement the tips you get from your fav books.

[@caumar_christina]

Thank you for taking the time to plan and share this video. I needed this today, and I'm serious when I say I needed this topic exactly today. Great video!!!

[@MrWasimhamad]

I simultaneously read the physical book and listen to its audio version.

[@Girlwithapurse03]

Love this topic!! You’re so smart.. thanks for making this video 💗🤍!

[@alivethrive7516]

This is great! Thank you. You’ve inspired me to share more about my own unorthodox methods👍🏻👍🏻

[@NickP-Sivil]

Thank you for your tips.

[@niamha301]

Thank you so much, this really clears up why I feel that my non fiction books don't feel as satisfying to read.

[@Jesss_Zen]

I do the audiobooks I retain more but that is due to the way my brain remembers things and my learning style. Works great for me. Definitely walking, cleaning or moving while I listen.

[@KingaGorski]

*lol* @ 'blood facial' and 'invent new holiday' on the To-Do list. That went from productivity to procrastination real quick 😂

[@Nocturnal_Lorena]

I can't listen to audiobooks while walking coz I NEED to take notes lol. This was really helpful! Tysm!

[@juliematon7461]

Brilliant video thanks

[@DanielMillerBroker]

My favorite tip in listening to this You Tube is to change your format and listen to audio books, plus taking a walk while you are listening

[@sunitafisher4758]

🌸 I can remember one of my professors telling me this tip, when I was younger I forgotten that, thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@carolinahanakova8198]

Open the book randomly, and there is always what I need to read right now . I find it very useful to read a book with highlighter to highlight the important parts.

[@SamuelJames-o9y]

Going off of taking things slow and having a conversation points you made, I got a piece of knowledge from Ryan Holiday that opened my eyes and allowed me to do these things. Some of the greatest minds that ever lived YOU get to have a conversation with them when you read. Treat it at the pace and interest you would give a human interaction. This has helped me exponetially

[@mahimarana4556]

This is exactly what i needed! Thanks

[@claudiabl5787]

Happy Canada day. I have been storing my books in supermarket bags as i shop groceries, I love books. Why keep old books? I got the info, and that's it. That's why the library books are good too. Smile

[@phenarae]

I teach it or tell someone about it as soon as possible.... I learn as I teach.

[@digitaldroo]

Hmm. Not seeing you in the thumbnail, I almost swiped past this. Good thing I recognized your name.

[@sasham5611]

Great tips, thank you. We have the same puzzle - the wooden zodiac circle 😂

[@dennismurphy9957]

I read this (not on the internet - it was on a T-shirt, a more reliable source}: "If you have time to do housework, you have time to read a book." As Quentin Crisp once said "After four years the dust doesn't get any thicker."

[@SBX70]

My biggest problem is my mind wanders when I read. I start thinking about things that may be related to what I'm reading or totally unrelated and then 10 pages later I don't remember how I got there. I'm an introvert so I spend a lot of time in my own head.

[@kero_ichigo]

I'm happy to have come across your video.

[@Bestitwest]

I really hate to say this, but I am going to anyway...I use Bloom's Taxonomy. Actually, it started when I was studying to get my professional license and I still continue to take the same approach to reading everything.

[@kristallyzation]

Blood facial! I’m curious what your new holiday ideas are😂

[@HealthFactoftheDay]

Love your content!

[@hamaratablatv6279]

Highlight kalemle altını çizmekten daha iyi bir yöntemim var. Kitabın en arkasındaki boş sayfayı geçip beni etkileyen, hatırlamak isteyeceğim cümleleri, bunları hatırlatacak bir ifade ve sayfa numaralarıyla birlikte yazıyorum, çok kullanışlı.

[@beatrice73mikalciute51]

The best advice I've received is to stop reading one book, it's important to have different genres. My adhd really likes it and I read more efficiently then

[@KWKarn]

I like to read in voices. I decide on a voice for the author and imagine they're talking to me. This is harder when I know what the author sounds like (like Robert Sopolsky or David Sedaris)

[@cxa011500]

I would say, don’t try to “understand” a book fully. Just scan through it and get a feel for whether it has something valuable. If it does, then return to it from time to time.

[@47943]

I just want to call you daddy you teach me so much 😇🤣🥰 ty Clark love YOU and all your work

[@learninghowtolivetakesawholeli]

Amazing

[@rubbinsracingvideos]

Was that an Obituary hat? Are you a metal head Clark?

[@dig1272]

Okay, this is embarassing. I do not have a "strategy" for retaining what I read. Except when it comes to reading in college, which I am doing now. But for non college reading, I read something and between reading sessions I simply daydream about what I just read. I link ideas from it to my own life or to others in my life (past or present) and I look for examples that confirm what the author is saying and if the book is something like "Transurfing," I just do my best to fully "get" what the author is saying, and, when ready, try it out. See if I sense I have changed my timeline, for instance. Yeah, I am into that kind of stuff, big time.

There is a lot of great value in this video but 99% wont apply it. And it should be 7 different videos. I agree with most of it.

[@BenMojo.]

Salt drink ? What's the secret to that ?

[@kirbyingles]

The guilt is the truth

[@theedspage]

Try to eliminate distractions - easier said than done for me. Read about the same topic from different sources.

[@Hexspa]

Haha. Ironic you used an Osho book because those have no parts. “Silence shared in words.” The point of books like that is different than your standard self-help book. I’m sure OP knows that but I love Osho.

[@sophiaisabelle027]

You remember everything you read by being a complete savant. They say pictographic memorization allows your brain to capture every information by a single blink of an eye.

[@ItsMeJoshLee]

Marilyn vos Savant has a book out called Brain Power.
