> Most of the books I read this year (well over 100)

That's one book ever third day. Are you really challenging yourself and expanding your mind, or are these just time wasters?



Does all reading need to be challenging and mind expanding? A lot of the books were "just for fun" sci-fi/fantasy reads. A few of them were "mind-expanding". It's good to have a mix of the two.

I listen to audiobooks while I walk the dog, which at 4x 30min walks ends up being 120min/day. At 2x speed that alone is ~4 hours of progress per day. I also listen while cooking and cleaning which adds up to a _lot_ of time.


How far can a mind expand? Like is there really anything new?
