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.
2
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,
3
but you just can't wait to open a book at every chance you get.
4
So in this video I'm going to lay out a series of steps for getting addicted to reading.
5
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.
6
Okay, so the page -turner -triangle is how I think about the kind of books that I like to read.
7
And there are three elements that go into it.
8
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.
9
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.
10
If it hits two, then I'll probably read it and enjoy it.
11
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.
12
So for instance a book that I think does subject matter
13
and plot really well is The Three Body Problem which like I'm fascinated with the ideas it comes up with
14
the plot is really interesting and there's always something going on
15
that makes you want to read the next section the writing
16
is honestly kind of basic compared to some of the books I read
17
but you know two out of three is pretty good by
18
comparison like the subject matter of open is absolutely fascinating I love reading the stories of elite athletes
19
and the things they have to do to get to the top of their sports.
20
This is also ghost written and it's fantastically well written.
21
And the narrative is really well put together by the ghost writer.
22
And this really drags you through.
23
I just picked this up and could barely put it down.
24
Then you've got a book like Middlemarch.
25
I would say that the subject matter of this I wasn't that interested in.
26
I'm not that interested in this period of English history.
27
But the plot is fascinating the sort of antics of the different characters are really good, and the writing is absolutely amazing.
28
George Eliot is a genius.
29
Everybody loves this book for a reason.
30
I read it very, very quickly.
31
And I think what's beneficial about the Page -Turner Triangle is
32
that it allows you to be honest about the kind of experience you're looking to get from reading
33
and the kind of books you actually like.
34
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,
35
and then everybody will probably say, oh, you know what, you should read Moby Dick.
36
It's very similar.
37
But this also helps out with the next thing I would recommend, which is to stay in the Goldilocks zone.
38
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.
39
And I think that certainly happens in reading.
40
And one of the really key elements of flow is
41
that the challenge of whatever you're doing just about matches your experience level.
42
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.
43
But also, if they're too easy or simple, you're probably not going to enjoy them either.
44
So we'll talk about complicated first because I think that's one that a lot of people struggle with.
45
And in my experience, you can kind of push through a book up to a point without really understanding what's happening.
46
But it really feels like a slog.
47
So, for instance, in Middlemarch, there was a point where, I think I was a couple hundred pages in
48
and I was like I have actually forgotten who some of these characters are
49
because I had gaps between reading bits of it
50
and I did have to go back to a couple of online plot summaries
51
and just like check out what was going on and
52
so it sounds kind of counterintuitive
53
but I think the way to make sure you stick with
54
a book for the long haul is maybe to be honest
55
when you're not getting something and go back to reread the sections
56
that you don't understand or failing
57
that look up like an online chapter summary of any bits
58
that you didn't quite get or any elements of the plot where you're not really sure what's going on.
59
There's nothing that kills a book faster than kind of losing track of the overall plot
60
or if you're reading nonfiction then losing the thread of the arguments so you don't really understand what's happening.
61
So either be prepared to go back and look over stuff again or look up an online summary of the book.
62
And I certainly look words up while I'm reading
63
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,
64
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.
65
I'm not saying you have to sit there reading with a dictionary the whole time, but if something's really beyond your understanding,
66
I think you should look on it as a way of building your understanding of
67
that time or era or whatever you're doing.
68
But then what you also find is that books can sometimes be too easy
69
or you just hit a section of them that's not as engaging as the rest.
70
When your attention is drifting that's often because the book isn't challenging enough
71
and when that happens I think a really good idea is to actually consciously speed up your reading
72
so you're taking in more information and it becomes more challenging again.
73
And another way to do that with easy books is to use what I'm going to call the strategic skim.
74
And so what I mean by this is, don't skip pages entirely, but don't feel like you have to give every word
75
and every page of every book an equal amount of attention.
76
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,
77
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
78
and it probably doesn't you can probably just flip through those two pages quite quickly
79
or like I've been reading Robert Caro's biography of Robert Moses who's the New York urban planner
80
and that is a fascinating book but it's like 1300 pages long
81
and there are pages where it just gets into like who voted for a specific bill
82
and stuff you really don't need to know about
83
and I think it's fine to go through those bits quite
84
quickly to get back to the really good stuff about like power
85
and how it's exercised and how it kind of manifests itself which is the really good stuff in the book.
86
I'd also suggest having at least two books on the go at once, there are a couple of reasons for this.
87
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,
88
10 o 'clock at night I would really struggle with something very dense like you know 19th century literature
89
but I can still read like a nice page turner like a Cormac McCarthy or some help self help or pop science.
90
But another reason to have two books on the go at once is
91
that you can literally sit down on the couch with both of them
92
and as you feel your attention start to wane from one
93
of them just switch to the other one instead of turning the TV or the Playstation on.
94
And once you've had a few minutes of reading
95
that one you might feel ready for a little break and then go back to the other one again.
96
And I've honestly spent about 90 minutes, two hours at a time just flipping between two books,
97
just reading one or the other as my attention to whatever I'm doing drifts.
98
Another thing I would say at this stage is you absolutely cannot be afraid of the DNF.
99
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
Thanks for watchin'.

  • "But what I would argue is that you don't need a reading habit, but a sort of reading addiction." - "what I would argue is that"은 "제가 주장하려는 것은~입니다"로, 자신의 의견을 명확히 전달할 때 사용됩니다. "a sort of"는 "일종의"로, 비유적 표현을 부드럽게 전달합니다.
  • "And if it hits two, then I'll probably read it and enjoy it." - "hits two"는 "두 가지를 충족시키다"로, 구어체에서 자주 사용되는 축약 표현입니다. "probably"는 "아마도"로, 확신하지 않는 표현을 할 때 자연스럽게 사용됩니다.

실전 연습 루틴: 쉐도잉으로 말하기 실력 업그레이드

shadow speak 또는 영어 쉐도잉은 이 비디오를 활용한 가장 효과적인 연습법입니다. 다음 단계를 따라 해보세요:

  1. 비디오를 5~10초 간격으로 재생한 후, 즉시 따라 말합니다. 이때 화자의 발음, 억양, 속도를 최대한 흉내냅니다.
  2. 자신의 목소리를 녹음한 후, 원본과 비교합니다. 어느 부분이 다르게 들리는지 확인하고, 다시 연습합니다.
  3. 하루에 10~15분씩 반복하면, 자연스러운 발화 패턴을 익힐 수 있습니다. shadowspeaks와 같은 방법을 통해 꾸준히 연습하면, 영어 말하기 자신감이 크게 향상됩니다.

이 연습을 통해 비디오의 내용을 완전히 흡수할 뿐만 아니라, 실제 대화에서도 자연스럽게 영어를 사용할 수 있게 됩니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
