<div class="bbWrapper">About to finish: The Magic of Thinking Big, great mindset book</div>

[InspireHD]

<div class="bbWrapper">Sorry if this has been asked and answered. I&#039;ve been playing around with the idea of using my free trial to Audible. They are giving me 2 credits during my trial period. If I&#039;m working around the house, doing yard work, or on my commute, I&#039;d like to fill it with listening to something productive, rather than listening to the same 5 songs played on repeat on the radio and podcasts are kind of getting worn out to me -- although I have really found anything new that I can get into. It&#039;ll also be a quicker and more convenient way to &quot;read&quot; so that I don&#039;t have to find time to sit down and focus on paper.<br /> <br /> If I want to learn more about copywriting, like Cashvertising, would I still get the benefit of those books in audio form or is it something that should be visually read to pick up on the structures of the words?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Deep work is a very good read I totally recommend it, other Cal Newport books are also very good in terms of improving productivity</div>
