Most of us would like to read more books, and there are a lot of videos that promise to help you do that by building a reading habit.

But what I would argue is that you don't need a reading habit, but a sort of reading addiction, where you don't necessarily have a set time and place to read,

but you just can't wait to open a book at every chance you get.

So in this video I'm going to lay out a series of steps for getting addicted to reading.

And we're going to start by finding the kind of books you actually like, which is a lot easier with the Page -Turner Triangle.

Okay, so the page -turner -triangle is how I think about the kind of books that I like to read.

And there are three elements that go into it.

There's the subject matter, there's the plot or the narrative structure if you're reading a non -fiction book, and then there's the quality of the writing itself.

And what I generally find is that if a book hits one of those three things, then I might be able to get through it.

If it hits two, then I'll probably read it and enjoy it.

And if it hits all three, then I'm probably going to tear through it and I won't be able to read it fast enough.

So for instance a book that I think does subject matter

and plot really well is The Three Body Problem which like I'm fascinated with the ideas it comes up with

the plot is really interesting and there's always something going on

that makes you want to read the next section the writing

is honestly kind of basic compared to some of the books I read

but you know two out of three is pretty good by

comparison like the subject matter of open is absolutely fascinating I love reading the stories of elite athletes

and the things they have to do to get to the top of their sports.

This is also ghost written and it's fantastically well written.

And the narrative is really well put together by the ghost writer.

And this really drags you through.

I just picked this up and could barely put it down.

Then you've got a book like Middlemarch.

I would say that the subject matter of this I wasn't that interested in.

I'm not that interested in this period of English history.

But the plot is fascinating the sort of antics of the different characters are really good, and the writing is absolutely amazing.

George Eliot is a genius.

Everybody loves this book for a reason.

I read it very, very quickly.

And I think what's beneficial about the Page -Turner Triangle is

that it allows you to be honest about the kind of experience you're looking to get from reading

and the kind of books you actually like.

So if you're getting recommendations from either other people or places like Reddit or Substack, then it's really helpful to be able to go, oh, you know what, I really love the language in Blood Meridian,

and then everybody will probably say, oh, you know what, you should read Moby Dick.

It's very similar.

But this also helps out with the next thing I would recommend, which is to stay in the Goldilocks zone.

So if you're at all interested in the science of performance, then you've probably heard about the idea of flow, which is where stuff feels kind of effortless and fun, and time just flies by.

And I think that certainly happens in reading.

And one of the really key elements of flow is

that the challenge of whatever you're doing just about matches your experience level.

And how this comes in in reading is that if things are too complicated or difficult for you to follow, you're not going to enjoy it.

But also, if they're too easy or simple, you're probably not going to enjoy them either.

So we'll talk about complicated first because I think that's one that a lot of people struggle with.

And in my experience, you can kind of push through a book up to a point without really understanding what's happening.

But it really feels like a slog.

So, for instance, in Middlemarch, there was a point where, I think I was a couple hundred pages in

and I was like I have actually forgotten who some of these characters are

because I had gaps between reading bits of it

and I did have to go back to a couple of online plot summaries

and just like check out what was going on and

so it sounds kind of counterintuitive

but I think the way to make sure you stick with

a book for the long haul is maybe to be honest

when you're not getting something and go back to reread the sections

that you don't understand or failing

that look up like an online chapter summary of any bits

that you didn't quite get or any elements of the plot where you're not really sure what's going on.

There's nothing that kills a book faster than kind of losing track of the overall plot

or if you're reading nonfiction then losing the thread of the arguments so you don't really understand what's happening.

So either be prepared to go back and look over stuff again or look up an online summary of the book.

And I certainly look words up while I'm reading

so recently I reread Blood Meridian and a lot of the language in that book, you aren't really expected to know, it's just there I think for background,

but looking up some of the more esoteric words in there, I actually did sort of build my understanding of and enjoyment of the book.

I'm not saying you have to sit there reading with a dictionary the whole time, but if something's really beyond your understanding,

I think you should look on it as a way of building your understanding of

that time or era or whatever you're doing.

But then what you also find is that books can sometimes be too easy

or you just hit a section of them that's not as engaging as the rest.

When your attention is drifting that's often because the book isn't challenging enough

and when that happens I think a really good idea is to actually consciously speed up your reading

so you're taking in more information and it becomes more challenging again.

And another way to do that with easy books is to use what I'm going to call the strategic skim.

And so what I mean by this is, don't skip pages entirely, but don't feel like you have to give every word

and every page of every book an equal amount of attention.

So, a bit of advice that Mark Manson gives for instance, is that if you're reading a pop science book and a study comes up that you've read about before,

like there's a famous one about the hippo campi of taxi drivers getting bigger as they learn the knowledge, unless the book has something interesting to say about that story

and it probably doesn't you can probably just flip through those two pages quite quickly

or like I've been reading Robert Caro's biography of Robert Moses who's the New York urban planner

and that is a fascinating book but it's like 1300 pages long

and there are pages where it just gets into like who voted for a specific bill

and stuff you really don't need to know about

and I think it's fine to go through those bits quite

quickly to get back to the really good stuff about like power

and how it's exercised and how it kind of manifests itself which is the really good stuff in the book.

I'd also suggest having at least two books on the go at once, there are a couple of reasons for this.

You can keep one that's kind of easier and one that's kind of harder, so like for instance when it gets to about 9 .30,

10 o 'clock at night I would really struggle with something very dense like you know 19th century literature

but I can still read like a nice page turner like a Cormac McCarthy or some help self help or pop science.

But another reason to have two books on the go at once is

that you can literally sit down on the couch with both of them

and as you feel your attention start to wane from one

of them just switch to the other one instead of turning the TV or the Playstation on.

And once you've had a few minutes of reading

that one you might feel ready for a little break and then go back to the other one again.

And I've honestly spent about 90 minutes, two hours at a time just flipping between two books,

just reading one or the other as my attention to whatever I'm doing drifts.

Another thing I would say at this stage is you absolutely cannot be afraid of the DNF.

Like some people have systems for when they'll throw a book away.

100

You know, like some people say, give it 50 pages, give it 100 minus your age, give it like a chapter or two.

101

Personally, it's a bit more fluid than that for me like

102

if I'm reading a book based on a friend's recommendation

103

and they said it's fantastic you should absolutely read it you would love it I'll give it more pages than

104

if I just picked it up a shot because I like the cover

105

if I'm reading a classic

106

because everybody in the world says it's amazing I might give it a hundred pages before I ditch it

107

but I will ditch almost any book

108

if I'm not getting on with it also something I would

109

say about this is you don't have to think of a DNF as like admitting defeat on a book forever

110

so I got it about 300 pages into Moby Dick maybe 10 years ago

111

and then I had to give up on it

112

and then I tried it again last year

113

and I just absolutely smashed through it

114

and I don't really know why I think maybe I was

115

in a different place mentally I was better prepared to appreciate it

116

or maybe I was just more interested in whaling at

117

that point but a DNF doesn't mean you're never going to read a book it just means

118

that you're not going to keep struggling through it

119

when like you're not in the right headspace for it

120

and I think that's really important when you're trying to build a reading habit.

121

And then the next thing I would suggest is to really make reading more frictionless for yourself

122

so what I mean by that is make sure you always have a book in your bag, make sure there's always books on either your Kindle or your phone

123

and like have your book beside you at night

124

when everybody else goes to bed

125

or beside your bed in the morning instead of your phone so it's right there when you wake up.

126

And this is the point where building a habit really does come in

127

and I would say that the habit of like trying to read five

128

or ten or twenty pages in the morning

129

or at night does work for some people but I would say

130

that the more important habit is when you feel like you have a bit of spare time to do something,

131

the habit you have should be to open a book rather than mindlessly flicking through your phone.

132

And the best way to do that is to make it harder to access things

133

that are like attention sapping for you and much easier to get hold of a book.

134

And if you want some more advice on that, I've got that right here.

135

अभ्यास के सुझाव

पढ़ाई और अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करते समय, शैडो स्पीक तकनीक का उपयोग करें। वीडियो के संवाद की गति और टोन का पालन करते हुए, आप अपनी उच्चारण में सुधार कर सकते हैं। यहां कुछ महत्वपूर्ण सुझाव दिए गए हैं:

ध्यान से सुनें और हर वाक्य को बार-बार दोहराएं।
किसी भी नए शब्द या वाक्यांश को लिखें और उन्हें अपने वाक्यों में शामिल करें।
पढ़ाई के दौरान, "प्रवाह" की स्थिति में रहने का प्रयास करें, जिससे आपको पढ़ाई में आनंद आए।
यदि आप किसी पुस्तक में बहुत जटिलता अनुभव कर रहे हैं, तो रुकें और थोड़ी देर बाद फिर से शुरू करें।

इन तकनीकों का पालन करके, आप न केवल पढ़ाई में रुचि बनाए रखेंगे, बल्कि अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार भी करेंगे। याद रखें, पढ़ने की आदत को विकसित करने के लिए धैर्य और निरंतरता आवश्यक है।

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचना	वीडियो में
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है	you've probably heard · have actually forgotten · you've read
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी	like, which is · recommend, which is · flow, which is

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
