5:10 this is something I follow in all aspects of my life. You don’t have to finish anything you’re not actually enjoying. FOMO and Sunk Cost Fallacy are long dead to me, I’ll drop anything as soon as that intuition kicks in and tell me this is not connecting.

3:20 I was actually kind of surprised when you said this, cause as someone with a miner learning disability, audiobooks is just something I can't get behind. I have technically used audio when reading like my history textbook, but that's with following along, or at least having it open so I can follow along if I need to. And even with that I am constantly rewinding it to catch information. So like I'd have to not only pause and rewind an audio recording but I'd actually want to retain that information and let it sink in which I don't think I can do without going at my own pace. I also like to re-read stuff if I need to like if it doesn't make sense to me or because I found it shocking. I think it'd be also hard to pay attention. Audiobooks just seem so difficult to me IG :/

it is so hard for me to let go of a book when I don't like it. Cause I'm a big "what if" kind of girl. So what if I stop reading it and then I miss a gem!

For me audiobooks 📚 🎧 are the only way I consume books. I have a subscription of one book a month. I been reading one book a month for the last year and a half a lot of those books I read multiple times. A book is just information in whatever way u can get that information do it, I can’t tell you how many people I know that get physical books but never finish them they be better off listening to a book but they get the physical book cuz they feel like they need to prove something by doing the actual reading.
