Hello all, I’ve just got into reading and finished 3 books in about 3 months. The thing is I cannot for the life of me tell you what any of those 3 books are about. When I say I don’t remember I mean it.
I just finished atomic habits which seems like a rather easy read but I can’t remember what the book is about.
I’ve searched Reddit and YouTube and how to remember what you read but nothing is sticking.
Can any one share some tips? I’m going through a rough time and mainly focusing on self help books but they can’t help me if I don’t remember.
Thank you!
Haha - yeah I know that feeling. If it’s self-help books then I would say taking notes or marking up the books to refer back to key points.
The thing I find with self-help books is the more you read, the more you drown in ideas. I now tend to leave more time between to help the ideas grow and test them out. I’ll often read a novel or something in-between.
