Hey guys, any tips on how to read faster?
I would love to get to the point where I read one book a day, but right now best I can do is 3/week and even then I have to heavily rely on audiobooks.
Do you guys have any tips or techniques you could share with me? I run a business so time I have is very limited + my brain is frequently foggy from social media scrolling.
What are your reading habits like? I’d love to hear your thoughts and any advice you might have!

I read as many books as I can while listening to the audiobook version because I get distracted a lot when I read. With Audible, for example, I can set the reading speed so it’s a bit faster. Normally a book that’s 8-9 hours on audiobook only takes 5-6 hours if you listen at 1.4x or so.
Go as fast as you can comfortably keep up otherwise comprehension and retention will suffer.
At 3 books a week you’re already reading more than 95% of readers. At that point your only option really is to increase the amount.of time you devote to reading.
