Blinkist: How To Read A Book in One Uber Ride

This app lets you get cliffnotes for the latest and greatest books to read in 10-20 minutes.

I love to read, but I have a nasty habit of scrolling on my phone contributing to early-onset carpal tunnel. at night

Plus, I have a whole stack of books just waiting to be read and I can never catch up.

In my thirties, I’ve tried much harder to stay informed for one important reason, to be more interesting.

Why do I want to be more interesting...am I not enough? Hear me out.

  1. I do it for myself (being informed gives you an inherent sense of confidence)
  2. It heightens my social interactions

Think of it as a sales trick.

Name dropping a book + one interesting thing you learned from it opens up your world to more conversation.
