Picked up these 2 books from the bookstore couple of days back...
Did not think much of it.
But as I stated reading them, both have been absolutely delightful..
No wonder I am tweeting this so late while enjoying these books..
Will be immersed in them for the next few days.

Let's get started 👇
A few years back, I used to read articles which used to say a CEO read 40 books this year and I always thought how?
It's all about consistently reading a few pages every day!
2020- I read 15-25 pages(not every day) - I read 34 books in 2020
2021- I read 25-35 pages every night before sleeping and 100-150 pages every weekend
Ok, now let’s go through those 50 books 👇

Not just the above but his threads, videos, newsletters and podcasts are also amazing!
His new book ‘Do Epic shit’ is out, I would strongly recommend you to order that. I have done that already on Day 1 and I am starting my 2022 with that book 😊
