How To Read More — A Lot MoreThere's a quote from Winston Churchill that says:
“Young people should be careful in their reading, as old people in eating their food. They should not eat too much. They should chew it well.”
I like this quote because it changed my mind. It redirected my drive to learn. I no longer want to learn about as many ideas as I can (surface level knowledge). I want to deeply understand a few very good ideas.
The result of the above shift is that I started to revisit books/podcasts/videos that I've found very valuable in the past.
In this thread I'd like to ask you what are books/podcasts/videos/articles that you think are worth coming back to more than once? And why? (so other forum members can check them and benefit too).
I'll go first:
Books:
- Ready, Fire, Aim: Zero to $100 Million in No Time Flat by Michael Masterson (link)
How The Economic Machine Works by Ray Dalio (link)
Article:
How To Read More — A Lot More by Ryan Holiday (link)
Of course it's not an exhaustive list. But it's better than nothing. Links are not affiliate. Cheers!

Books:
- Ready, Fire, Aim: Zero to $100 Million in No Time Flat by Michael Masterson (link)
It's a book about business, its stages of development, challenges and opportunities at each stage. I've revisited the first part of this book multiple times - the $0-$1M stage. Some very useful ideas.
- The Millionaire Fastlane : Crack the Code to Wealth and Live Rich for a Lifetime! by MJ DeMarco (link)
No explanation needed on this forum. The fastlane mindset and some very useful business and wealth building concepts.
- The Dip: The extraordinary benefits of knowing when to quit (and when to stick) by Seth Godin (link)
It's a short book with a single powerful idea. Everything worth doing will have a dip (when the going gets tough). If you don't think you can cross the dip, quit. Starting and then quitting while you're in the dip is the worst time to quit (it's also when most people quit).
- Principles: Life and Work by Ray Dalio (link)
Seeing the reality as it really is and being rational are no easy tasks while being a human. Ray Dalio's principles are all about being better at those tasks.

There is no better and more concise explanation of how the debt fueled economy work.
