I have just had an epiphany I wanted to share.

For the last decade my way to consume books was listening to them. That is how I consumed MJ`s books (bought from Audible), Hormozi books, "Lord of the rings" several times (I highly recommend the version recorded by Andy Serkis) and so on.

And since I am having a birthday, I wanted to give myself a present and bought both "Unscripted " and Hormozi`s books in physical. And what a difference did it make. I opened Hormozi`s offers book which I got yesterday, just for fun, to see it printed and got struck by it in a completely different way. I suddenly saw my current offer in a completely different light, as a different concept. And now I am spending my weekend adjusting.

I feel I know why this was that different. The ability to reread the line, to jump up and down the text, to stop and think gives a 3d-picture of an idea.

What do you think? Does it fit with your experience? How do you consume books and does it make a difference for you?
