Tbh it really depends - with fiction books depending on how detailed it is I can skim but non fiction is definitely one where I can’t skim bc I have to read the pages two or three times actually. Detailed fiction is a no for skimming too but tbh if the book isn’t that detailed and complex then I can skim read (I don’t do it very often) Skimming is obviously still reading but if you’re skimming a detailed book and not taking anything in then the reading sessions is not very effective
@shreiya4 жыл бұрын
@BabyUnicornio but you're still technically reading the words when skimming - I'd say when I skim read I still read about 75% of the words on the page I just miss out words in between - you've still technically read a book even if you skimmed it if you understand the book/know the plot (most of it anyway). The literal definition is 'look at and comprehend the meaning of written or printed matter' and if you skim read a page and understand most of what is being said without needing to read it word for word, I'd still count the book, as a whole, as being read.
@mertb.64873 жыл бұрын
Usually I tend to skim through "modern" books I solely read for my own satisfaction or because of a recommendation. However, when it comes to classics or authors where I notice a peculiar / masterful writing style, I tend to read each word, sometimes even repeating certain pages to fully comprehend every sentence and most stylistic devices (for me, as a non-native speaker, Brave New World is a great example of such a novel). It‘s like the difference between truly watching certain wonderful shows or movies vs binging through each season of some mediocre ones.
@allyssa15233 жыл бұрын
for me, i skimmed through fiction books when the author is describing something or use long phrases to describe an action. For example, the author would write “He turned the doorknob. As he applied pressure on the door where it’s wood came from the finest wood cutter from Southeast Asia. The door opened” where its literally him opening the door. So yeah if the author is using long phrases to describe an action I’ll just skimmed through.

I lost both my jobs at the airport and couldn’t find a flying job either so I was extremely bummed out. I actually started mowing lawns around my neighbourhood and it took off. I realized I could pay back debt quickly doing it and also realized I could listen to books while mowing to maximize my time. I’ve paid back all my debt, built an emergency fund, and I’m starting to invest all because of the new knowledge I have from listening. “Atomic Habits” by James Clear was amazing. Hopefully aviation will rebound next year and I’ll be able to find a flying job! (I live in BC Canada)

@zarinaemerson18294 жыл бұрын
Agree with all your points. One that I would add is that if you’ve never been an avid reader the best way to start reading consistently is to find books on topics you’re actually interested in. Don’t read a book just because it’s a best seller, or because someone told you to read it and “it’s going to change your life.” It’s much easier to do that when you’ve built up a routine or don’t have the preconceived notion that books are a waste of your time. Also, just a reminder, you can read a lot of self-help books but if you don’t implement some of the things you’ve learnt then there won’t be any change in your life. Read a couple of chapters, try something you've learnt and then read some more. It's a lot easier when the ideas are fresh and you have motivation.

Mr.O Brien. After being treated for T.B.I due to injuries i sustained in iraq, my vocabulary with words, memory and speech have been impaired. So i decided to read as much as i can. However I do not know where my interests are for books. I feel like im am indecisive. With the book i do purchase, I find myself not connecting with the words that I read. Like if i am not focusing or I am being distracted . ( As if someone just rambles with words, i ramble with reading) as hard as i try to concentrate i find myself reading every single page at least 2-3 times before turning the page , to really grasp or take in or understand what i am reading. Not the pronounce of words but re read to understand what is taking place during that narration. Re reading 2-3 times every page has become unmotivating and exhausting. Books tend to drag out longer than they should.. have tried audible books and it has been easier to picture what is happening during the narration. I take notes as well. However i feel like a cheat. That I am not becoming more knowledgeable as someone should when they physically read . Do you recommend to keep reading physical or can one gain what you have gain with audiblebooks?

Great video bro! I’ve noticed that since I stopped using social media I have definitely gotten more productive. Started doing my morning routine more, started reading more, etc. I’ve also noticed that I’ve been more happier to. In my opinion there’s nothing wrong with social media but it can be very damaging to the mind and health sometimes.

If you're like me who used to love reading as a kid but fell out of the habit as a teen and want to get back into it now (I'm 20 so it's been a while) I'd suggest starting off with reading about things you like so in my case I read a lot of manga and comics and that helped me read novels associated with those stories which eased me back into reading more complicated books with greater comprehension

Awesome video! I find that combining reading and listening is the way to go for me too. A lot of times the audio book versions of the book will have exclusive content from the author. Also hearing it from their own mouth literally can be super powerful sometimes. Having that accountability is huge too. I did that where both my cousin and I were reading through a book together and it helped us both grow talking more about it outside of our other reading. Yeah reading a lot is definitely a great skill to have. I've dropped a number of books and I've been doing it more lately. Reading helps you in your writing too. And yep Harry Potter and Percy Jackson books were super bomb.

I have a good attention span! Since my teen years and early adult years, while it used to crave to read something off and on, I eventually started craving to read something everyday! Of course some books I was more immersed in then others, but I LLLOOOOVE reading! Literally, just last sunday I sat in my room reading The Outsiders (finished), and too close to breathe (finished). All day. I got up to eat here and there, but for the most part, I stayed in the house all day reading my favorite books! :D

I know some people struggle reading- I DONT UNDERSTAND. Maybe it's cause I am younger or something but I have distractions and stuff... I just stay up until I've read to my satisfaction. I don't have to force myself to read- I have to force myself to stop.

When speaking of consequence, I think there is another factor that prevents grow-ups reading/studying more is that when we are young, we have to face the consequences that come out our control, the lower grades, parents' yelling, etc. But now, most of the time, the only judge of what consequences may come is ourselves. People always mention that give yourself a reward or punishment if some goals are achieved or not. However, if I cannot control myself to do the small habits build-up, how can I have the power to punish myself from not having fun or the rewards.

Something that we learn when reading is to interpret sentences and messages very well. From what i noticed, you just talked a lot about what you think we need to do, what you did and how you did it, but absolutely nothing about what actually happened, whatever i was expecting to have actually happenned to you after that. Plus, to my surprise, you didn't even actualy read them. Stop this clickbaiting bs.

I think one of the reasons that we tend to stop reading after our younger years is because school uses the reading = reward system. For example if you read a book you could do the essay or if you read the book you could get a good grade on the test. So when that has been put in our minds we start the think that we should have a purpose for reading and if there isn’t we don’t read.

Some of the "distractions" are essential for me, namely, the cellphone and the laptop as for when a place or event is mentioned in the book I have never heard of it, thus, I have to search the net to understand the setting and get the gist from the context of the story. :)
