    Mental Distractions: Why can't I focus while reading?

    QUESTION 
    Hey guys, I'm wondering why I keep having mental distractions while reading. I keep wandering off and thinking of something completely different when I want to focus on learning through books. This is mainly the reason why it took me 2 months to finish Unscripted. I would read a couple pages...

    GOLD! NEWSLETTER 
    I've said this over and over here. At some point, you have to STOP reading about swimming, and just jump in the pool. I found this great tweet on Twitter that summarizes the importance of reading, but also on following up reading with a dive into the pool. In today's culture, ACCESS TO...

    Started my first LLC - From play-faking to taking action.

    EXECUTION

    Reading Habits, suggestions?

    So I was wondering what are your reading habits?
