Sir, please don't demotivate after seen the views, you did great, the views are less because people don't knows the value of books, so they are not searching it, that "how to read a book".

[sophiamahmoud]

I have watched and listened to this video more than 20 times. This is by far one of the most effective and well organised presentation I’ve come across, thank you!

[abdullateefmuraina]

To be very honest, I once thought before I watched this video that the trend of the previous videos that I have watched on how to read a book would be the same, I was startled on how the whole messages were organised, and confidently lectured. You're really an amazing person. While watching this video, I wrote up to 9 pages of my 60 leaves exercise book, I couldn't stop writing. I had to be pausing and be jotting down those key points, frankly you're an amazing tutor! God bless you sir.

Love from a Nigerian student ❤️

[gameofcodes]

Before this, I was searching How to read multiple books at once.
Now after this I will focus on how to get most out of the book.
Thanks

[panda_beats]

1, intention
2, relate
3, reflect
4, prioritise
5, action

[Yash.Meta]

Summarized Points :

Read 1 book 10 times rather than reading 10 books once.
Reading multiple books doesn’t help.

1, Read the book with the intention to change:
Don’t read the book solely for the information.
It should help u change ur actions/ thinking.
The old information gets wiped out as soon as u start reading the new book.
Move on only after u have changed.

2, Relate the book to our own life.
Then it will become your book

3, Reflection:
Is it really true? Does it match with my experiences? Analyze and reflect.
Reading without reflection is like eating without digestion. Both lead to s**t.
Even after this YT video is done, we need to reflect upon it whether this matches with the way we think/ read.

4, Prioritise the chapter/ section which will have the most impact on your life.

5, Action Plan:
Ready aim fire.
Till last decade knowledge was the most difficult part, nowadays it’s the action which is rare.
If u are willing to pay the price (sacrifice) then the success is yours. It is inevitable.

6 Adjustment: Old thinking -> Reflection -> Repetition -> New thinking

[mukundarora]

Finally someone like me who believes in quality rather than quantity I hate those people on YouTube who always boasts about reading 1 book per week I bet if I ask any peculiar prominent detail and Explaination from these type of readers who read multiple books in a very unnecessarily fast pace and wrong approach they will not be able to answer any question effectively.

[krunalkapadiya]

This talk helped me to finish one book multiple times and to implement every sets of chapter of book in real life. Thank you Ajinkya sir.

[AadidevSooknananNXS]

One the most inspiring, best-organised talks I've watched!

[Robbie]

One of the best Ted X Talks I've ever watched. As an avid reader this video made me reflect and change the way I read. I would definitely recommend this video to anyone who wants to improve their reading and learning process. R.

[boya_]

When it comes to learning, the distinction that lies between being practical and aiming to be knowledgeable is that the former makes you query in detail about what you want to achieve regarding what is important once the goal is set and subsequently deepen into it t implying in such a way considerable amounts of constant questioning for the sake of gaining further insight, whereas the latter plunges you in a false sense of productivity as product of a compulsive and misguided decision making where quantity takes precedence over quality, thus relying on possibilities when being deceived by a stubborn mindset of standing by one's principles.

[daacadable]

''How to read a book and change your life''! This will be the fair title for this amazing video.

[mihirjoshi]

Very Underrated ! This guy spoke gold. Really learnt things I needed to.

[saadrehmanshah]

Such a genuine and sincere talk! At the beginning I was skeptical, because the style didn't seem as polished some of the other speakers. But the talk is so sincere and heartfelt, it impacted me directly. I have taken so many notes. What comes out the heart, goes in the heart.

[manikantad]

Really, a Nice talk. All the 7 elements in how to read a book is impactful. To make most effective myself, is to watch this video Mutiple times and get thinking and new results.

[tebogomandindi]

An important takeaway for me, from this talk, is that success is inevitable if you are committed to defending your convictions.

The road to realising that success may not be an easy one to travel, but the success is inevitable.

Thank you for this talk Ajinkya!
