Millionaire Investor and Entrepreneur “Tai Lopez” is a very interesting guy. Tai has read 1,000’s of books over the years and he shares the wisdom daily with his viewers via youtube videos and e-mails. I subscribed to Tai’s mailing list and he sends me a cool little summary on what he has learned recently from each book he reads.

Billionaires and super successful individuals credit much of their achievements and accurate decisions in life to the lessons they have learned through “READING” books!

The one issue that we have as aspiring entrepreneurs in life is that there is so much information and so little time! That is why it is important to learn the awesome skill of power reading so you can devour the main point and powerful lessons from a book within 10 minutes or so.

There are decades of lessons and stories compiled into hours worth of reading in a book. So why wouldn’t you read a book, and more importantly why wouldn’t you want to learn how to read a book in 10 minutes?

Tai Lopez will walk you through the steps of reading a book in 10 minutes flat.

Check out the video and get to reading!

“Books were my pass to personal freedom. I learned to read at age three, and there discovered was a whole world to conquer that went beyond our farm in Mississippi.” ― Oprah Winfrey

“I really had a lot of dreams when I was a kid, and I think a great deal of that grew out of the fact that I had a chance to read a lot.” ― Bill Gates

“In my whole life, I have known no wise people who didn’t read all the time — none, zero. You’d be amazed at how much Warren(Buffett) reads — at how much I read. My children laugh at me. They think I’m a book with a couple of legs sticking out”.” ― Charles T. Munger

“I insist on a lot of time being spent, almost every day, to just sit and think. That is very uncommon in American business. I read and think. So I do more reading and thinking, and make less impulse decisions than most people in business. I do it because I like this kind of life.” ― Warren Buffett

I found it better to wait for the movie more entertaining then reading the book.

I disagree with all of this. The only way to truly learn anything is from direct experience. To whatever extent you can be guided by the experiences of others, it’s not the same as learning from your own. Even less can you skim the pages of someones life and think you’ve learned a thing. If you truley want more time to read and know everything then do what I did, and become immortal. However it will cost you lots more than most are willing to pay. hahaha.

Mr. Lopez,
Why do you live in a studio? Does the green screen improve your mood, productivity and efficiency?

  Well, he actually lives in a mansion at holliwood hills. I’m one of his studentes and in a part of his program he says to be above the common of the pople you have to investigate prior to assume. Maybe that simple tip could help you see beyond your envy.

    Michael, you attempted NLP language in order to cause cognitive confusion. As someone who trained in the field of NLP I know that your response was a way to disarm the original poster by causing confusion.
    “Investigate prior to assume” in order to be above the common people. ( I will forgive your spelling mistake, and elitist language) doesn’t make sense in any context.
    In order to be better than everyone else you have to investigate what it is like to be poor? Or investigate what it is like to be rich/successful in order to become rich/successful. You mean the “Act as if” theory?
    
    Either way, semantics aside, the original poster was correct when they said that Tai was using a green screen. So, in reality, there was nothing for you to argue against.

I love this website, but this is hands down the worst advice…Enrich your mind and don’t look for shortcuts…every nugget of knowledge gets you closer to your dreams…Warren Buffet didn’t become a billionaire and best investor of all time by shortcutting his way through prospectuses.

Reading faster is one thing, but 1) retaining the ideas in the content and 2) enjoying the reading are different from reading speed.

  Hey Ben, over time I have learned how to read quickly while still retaining the content. It’s like bench pressing, you start out weak and then over time end up pushing out big weight…

“It’s been 2 years since I left writing, how would I start it again?” I cried to my friend. Telling him how I failed to generate regular income from sources other than writing, and how I am drowning in 1 million dollars of debt. I left writing because I felt it was the core reason for my depression, but I was totally wrong. It was not the writing that triggered my stress hormones, the real culprit was not knowing “how to write and grow”. (more…)
