One of the things you have to do is to develop other leaders so you can hand stuff off and have enough time to read. @ToddAdkins
You often can’t put yourself in the position to make the best decisions unless you’re reading well. @ToddAdkins
I have books in different places. I encourage people to make use of space well. And there are ways you can nudge yourself into a reading posture, where reading is really just part of the day.@TrevinWax
Communication is a work of imagination.@TrevinWax
Reading more is about setting yourself up, in a world of distraction, to read well. I don’t have my phone sitting next to me when I’m reading. Eliminating distractions is massive. @ToddAdkins
You have more time than you realize. If you want to read well, if you want to read widely, if you want to read a lot, have a book nearby all the time. And then in the dead times, you can knock out a chapter or two of a book.@TrevinWax
If you just commit to reading just 20 minutes a day, you will work through more than a dozen books in a year.
It’s not as hard as people think. It’s just the prioritizing of the time, eliminating distractions.@TrevinWax
