What I???ve Learned Reading and Summarizing 100 Books

These are often encapsulated in one or two sentences — the things that make you go “aha”!

The rest is repetitions or examples that illustrate a principle you’ve already understood (Eg: Robert Greene’s books).

There are exceptions (Nassim Taleb), but exceptions are by default, rare.

Don’t feel guilty to quit reading a book.
