Summary

  • For those who haven’t used an e-reader before, it can be useful to outline a simple method for an e-reader-less ecosystem
  • This can provide a more flexible and comfortable reading experience across multiple devices
  • To begin with, it is important to collect everything that you want to read into one inbox
  • There are applications that can help with this, such as Instapaper, which can be used across Android and iOS devices
  • It is also a good idea to have a specific place for reading e-books, such as Apple Books or the Kindle app
  • You should consider different ways of annotating or highlighting the books you are reading on your surface, whether this is through handwritten notes or by typing into the margins on a digital device
  • It can be helpful to have a consistent reading ritual, such as doing 25 minutes of reading every morning or following the Pomodoro technique of 25 minutes of focused reading followed by a 10-minute break
  • Finally, it can be useful to have a system that allows you to capture the things that you have read so that you can refer back to them at a later date
