In my extensive habit study, 88% of the rich read on average 30 minutes a day, strictly gaining knowledge.
What are their reading topics?
- Career/industry related
- Self-service
- educate
- Biography of successful historical figures
- history
- Current affairs related to career/industry
- Anything related to a dream or a goal
- Hobbies/interests
Although reading is important, it is more important to keep what you read.
One tool I got from a homemade millionaire in my research is called “fact adhesive.” Binders can help me retain facts or easily get facts that are crucial to help me grow, improve and make money.
In my Big Facts Adhesive (which is a 6-inch binder), I divided the important facts into alphabetical theme sections that target everything I need to know about each of my five businesses. Here is an example:
- Author’s Business
- Book Summary – I summarized every book I have read. Some summary = 1 page, some are 10 pages.
- Brain Science
- economics
- Financial Plan
- Genetics
- government
- Habit
- healthy
- Rich habit-related research
- Speaker Business
- Tax
- Training business
- wealth
- writing
My truth is the first resource to choose from everything I have learned from all my readings. It helps me easily access the fact that my brain is not committed to long-term memory. I use my fact adhesive every day.
