Read one hour every day. Make it an integral part of your daily life, but no more than an hour. No good comes from excess, reading is a contemplative, introspective, meditative activity and should be approached with discipline and respect. Rather than spending too much time reading, read for one hour and spend the rest of the day thinking and analyzing those 30-40 pages you went though.

The deeper i go within the real self, the more i realize how pointless reading is and draw original knowledge from the source

based. it's the same with film. So many hipster faggots love saying "I watched 4 arthouse films today!" yeah and do you remember the details of any of them? completely defeats the point. unless you only do it to kill time

Around the age of 35-40 you should stop reading new books. Reading new releases past that point is largely meaningless. The second half of your life should be dedicated to re-reading and reminiscence, projecting your own life upon the familiar stories, gaining new, unexpected perspective, drawing wisdom from the inside rather than seeking it elsewhere.

you can read much more than an hour. i tend to read 3 hours a day, sometimes up to 6 hours in a day, it isn't bad for you so long as you make sure you're paying attention and take a few short breaks

Around the age of 35-40 you shouldn't be anywhere near 4chan unless you're a complete loser with nothing to reminiscence about. Bernie Sanders became a senator at age 40, and Ryo Fukui became a successful musician in his 30s. And here you are, on 4channel, telling other people what they should do with their lives.

He's right. Launch your self-affected ass off a cliff; maybe your buzzwords empty words will cushion the fall when your non-existent ass hits the rocks.

Decent advice. If you follow that consistently, you'll progress through a good number of books. Most people read sporadically, and comparatively less than if they read a moderate amount as part of their daily routine.

idk, reading should be important but i just jont like to live in different worlds, i would rader remind my self of my values. To stay in this state of knowing acseptense and know why the fuck i am doing. - reading can calm but can mask reality, readings a bich

Reading shouldn't substitute life, it should complement it.
