Tim what you think about Ryan holiday method... Need your view
2 weeks I asked you about zettelkastle system... Your system is much similar to that but to transfer your highlights made it soo easy to make notes. Thanks Tim
Regards.
1. Indexing: Page numbers with brief descriptions/phrases
2. Revise Index with multiple readings by adding stars and asterisks.
3. If using kindle use Evernote and Amazon notebooks to import/export indexes and highlights similar to paperbacks
4. Take down Next Steps/Further Actions to do and keep track after reading
5. Read with Intent to get real behavioral change after reading from both fiction and non fiction
Thank you! He spent 20 minutes to explain what you did in a simple list. 🎉
4:54 reminded me of the quote "Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves." -Carl Jung
I love when you catch yourself using the word ‘interesting,’ and then quickly going back to not only replace the word, but to also elaborate on your thought process. It’s so true that ‘interesting’ is lazy, even a word that locks up freethinking. I highly appreciate your awareness and aspire to catch myself in the same way.
I appreciated that moment as well, but the more I think about it, it's more safe than lazy. It implies "thought provoking" to the listener so that they can explore it however they choose. Philosophically, it may be appropriate. Other words may impose more of your own beliefs or open up to a rabbit trail more than you want in the moment, though from a writer's perspective, there may be more colorful ways to say it, e.g. "thought provoking."
In one of the TED Talks there was a guy whose name I can't recall, who made a comparison between readers and miners because the way you looking for a nugget and just working ,working just mining through hundreds of pages is the same. When you find something valuable , just take it and keep it. Tim Ferriss does so by taking notes .
The best advice is the most simple. Just dive into what you enjoy. Your curiosity will naturally expand on its own. And your retention works best when you’re most engaged and can relate the most. As your relate to more, you’ll be able to relate to more. This is how you naturally progress in your reading level.
Great advice!
I'm Persian and I am truly thrilled and amazed by how Hafez has crossed the boarders of cultures by his amazing book for a native English speaker. I wish you could read his book in our perspective to see how he put words together to make this incredible book. it is not just meaning and metaphors that he used, but also perfect rhyme and mindfulness of his poems. his book is precious to Persians not just by its poetic nature, but also sacred because we have a tradition which we think about a subject in our head(something like intention or something that you need a guide for) and then we open Hafez book; its interesting that how you can relate and seek answers from the appeared poem... thanks for sharing
If Shima sH is still listening, please reach out.
@@johnbraman3792 Hi, I'm here!
@@shimash8955 I value your perspective and wonder how we might collaborate to read Hafez, and similar works, such that y"our perspective", (Persian) can be shared with others? Very much enjoyed reading your comment, particularly in current context. Broadening understanding seems to be a skill that could be cultivated? How might we accomplish that?
@@johnbraman3792 Thank you, John. Although I'm no expert in the Persian language or Persian literature, I can share my perspective and perception as a normal native Persian speaker. I'm not sure about your platform or where you want to collaborate on those poems, but I can help whenever you need an external point of view. By the way, Hafez is not the only famous Persian poet. You might also have heard about Rumi, whose poems are widely translaintod in other languages.

I probably missed something. Comment below if I did!
This comment needs to be higher up like upvoted more...its like its hidden under the sands.
This is the comment I was looking for. Thanks!
Yes you missed something
You forgot this 👑
When we should do that? After finishing a chapter or after reading the whole book?
Fatma Z Abdeldjouad Do it as you are reading. Enjoy!
One of the best tips I ever received don't remember from whom is to write each page's main idea on the outside margin, that way whenever you want to go back to that book you can always browse the outside margins and get the main idea. Also fold and star the corner of pages that contain idea that are extremely good.
When I was going through graduate school, I would mark up the hell out of my text books, and I would never use a highlighter. Back then, it would help my focus so much. I would write in the margins, and I would use the empty space up front as a notepad. Just like Ferriss.
Years later, I went back to look at my notes, and I was astounded at the level of focus I had. The notes and underlines left clues for me.
When I read library books, I slap a lined 4"x6" post-it note in the front cover with the book name and author. I take notes then transfer the post-it to a notebook when I'm done.
Great idea, Christine. Thanks for sharing
For those who don't want to mark in the books: fold a sheet and leave it in the front of the book with your personal index. Next to that, code your notes with the colored Post-it notes (add symbols or short titles, whatever you'd like). That's how I roll. Cheers.
Could you elaborate on the use of the colored post it notes?
@@alexanderhdo Sure thing! So I have three colors in those and I try to use them a little differently than most. For example, in academic literature I use orange (quotes), yellow (relevant figures or numbers), green (relevant citations). It's not an exact method because obviously some quotes from from the relevant citations, but I know more or less what I'm looking through.
@@alexanderhdo Ohh, I haven't used the Kindle notes before, but I'm slowly trying to adjust to that as well haha.
I carry post-it notes everywhere. Not as nice as a notebook but much more convenient. Stick a post-it note on the front page, or wherever you want to take notes, and you can physically move them somewhere more useful instead of having to copy them
Colors make the world pretty. Duh :)
Love the mention of “Travels With Charley”. Immediately recognized the cover sitting on the table. Just a random book high school me picked up at the public library for no other reason than recognizing the author and liking the cover art. Fell me back into a lost love of reading from the first pages. Beautifully written and paced
I’ve never heard the term “lazy adjective” before. Very often I find myself writing in the journal assigning a “lazy adjective” to each action/activity, and while I’m always aware of what I’m doing, I never knew how to define it in such a simple way.
Thanks Tim!
I read books on my phone, and while reading it I take notes on notes or just copy straight text from iBooks. If it's something I feel I need to properly absorb, then I read and write it in my own words in my notes. I've read a lot of books and forgotten more than half of them. I've read all Bukowski in a binge when I was in college, and I remember almost nothing. I started the practice to take notes very late. I forget things now too, but I go to my notes and just read a synthesized version of the book. Digital reading and writing are very efficient and it's all saved up in the cloud.
Helmet I can relate to this!!
Lucy Stanton thanks, although many people still endorse buying hard copies, but I think it's far easier, effective and efficient reading on phones. Provided that your phone has a a good screen size. It is the same as people who argue the audio quality of a vinyl record and cds are unmatched. Which is true, but how many cds can you own, where can you carry the ancient player and your crazy speakers, and do you have enough storage space? Would your kids spare it? A smartphone my friend is the ultimate answer.
I could never digest books. That's why I stopped eating them.
lol
This comment was the only one I was looking for when I clicked on this video 😂 I can go watch another video now
I can only imagine you are as thin as a rake these days!!!!
Respectable dad joke
He means comprehension not literally eating books
Tim, you offer so much valuable content within so many different contexts. But the information in this video is so relevant to me, particularly now as since at 40 I have been diagnosed with Inattentive ADHD. I've recently been thinking a lot about how much information I consume, and try to digest. And how I read books often not finishing them, occasionally taking notes in an unsystematic manner.
Now, just to be focused enough to consistently implement this method and finish reading my books from cover to cover!
P.S. a vision of mine is to create enough financial wealth that I can one day afford to fund education development and research for alternative/natural health and ecology/sustainability. Hearing you share that you have done this already is yet another aspect of your work that inspires me 🙌🏼
1. Travels with Charley in search of America(comic)
2. Writing down the bones(how to book)
3. I heard god lauging(poems) + The gift
4. Already free(kindle)
5. In pursuit of common good
Thanks!?
“How should there be a common good? The term contradicts itself. Whatever can be common always has little value”
-Nietzsche
Thanks!
@@tomcat8662 Do you agree?
Travels with Charley isn't a comic
Hearing someone calls Hafez "hilarious" is absolutely a new thing to me.
And then I heard the translation you qouted and knew why!
It's the beauty of Hafez that even in the language that's written people can get different msgs. Not only that, by translation it's a whole new world!
Hafez poetry is so deep like a wonderland, you can cry, smile, be surprised and.. at the same time.
My next actions: to get a kindle, to start writing index notes on the front page of books, to re-read some of the books/highlights. Read with behaviour changes in mind!
inner light yeah dude, same here! I really believe that re-read books is even more important than read a new book
I love the kindle or kindle app to highlight and type notes when reading certain books as my memory is not great. I have my kindle connected to Goodreads website/app and when I log in to Goodreads I see what I have highlighted and it also brings over notes.
I like the idea of the kindle or Kindle app more than I actually like the product. For me personally, there's a ton of books that i would want to read that just aren't on kindle. There's also the thing about them being just as expensive as a new book would've cost. Personally I enjoy going to a used book store and loading up on a bunch of books I want to read for a really good price. The only unfortunate part about that is that they take up space and get heavy quick. Any who....✌
FREEDOM reframe - it’s not just doing whatever you want necessarily - there’s freedom in constraint and focus ...
WOW MY BIGGEST TAKEAWAY from the messages in the books so far on what I’ve seen. On the meaning of freedom, which I’ve been reflecting on, by thinking about feeling a lack of focus and all over the place with interests. This really boils those feelings down nicely.
Take a look at the positioning of the books on the table. The parallel positioning is no coincidence. That is Tim in a nutshell...and I love it.
Active reading. I use sticky notes and write my notes on them attached to the page. It keeps the book as is also easy to update.
I love that you described reading comprehension strategies that we teach children in school; making a text to text connection, making a text to self connection and making a text to real world connection.
"In this course, I'll teach you how to learn. I'm Tim Ferris, and this is my masterclass..."
Yes.
He did a masterclass? Other than the four hour life™️?
YES PLEASE.
@@abdulrahmana8623 na, just a joke lol. His intro here made me think of it. That being said, he definitely should have a Masterclass, and it probably should be something along the lines of "The Art of Learning" 😎
@@jasonlieberman4606 Have you seen his series on Vimeo ? I can't remember exactly what it was called but he showed how he learnt, the drums, golf, poker, a language and some other things in a short space of time. It was probably 3-4 years ago now but it was really cool.
Ok, this is creepy. I literally just submitted my form to try and win "How to change your mind" and I suggested you create more content like this! Tim, you're too good.
Sarah up same! I specifically put down note-taking! So crazy
Trippingly.net has a good summary but if it's a pain to read, I have an audio version of it on my podcast : Green & Gold, with Tegan Ariel
Audio of the summary
8:15 according to Kant (who I couldn't agree more with) freedom is first for self-mastery, not for self-indulgence as the one who does whatever they want, as is commonly understood, is slave of their subconscious. just wanted to ad that to the conversation :)
This is really cool, can I ask where could I read more about this thought by kant?
"I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson.. If that's good enough for him, it's good enough for me.
Wow it's impressive to me that someone can remember what they've eaten😂
Ye but he was a literature geek not someone trying to improve their life smh 😑
Buongiorno, Tim and team, 2 questions for you:
1. One of the risks I see is having too many actions from a book in search of a problem to fix (that might not be there). What is your process of elimination to focus only on the few actions that are insightful_and_relevant_for_you (and not only insightful)?
2. Let’s say in a month your takeaways were a. visiting different churches, b. pondering how anger is fear displayed in public and c. applying the charity PR stunt to raise money. What is your next step in the process: do you classify ideas in can-apply-today and can-apply-tomorrow? Do you actively create opportunities to make them happen e.g. start visiting churches or stay attentive but wait for the right moment to come up?
You've become so much more relaxed in your videos! Thanks for sharing this great info.
When Tim smiled and said he'd read us a poem, I got a little tingly.....in my spine.

Tim your energy is infectious. Keep it up man - love what you’re doing 🙌🏽
I use a bullet journal and put page numbers I should refer back to in the index. Makes it easy for me to find the pages and book for which refering to.
Thank you for sharing these tips! I’ve never thought about directly noting and indexing in the front page of a book! What a brilliant way! And my favorite part is the right bottom box of next-action! I’m going to try it. Thank you Tim!
Love the topics of these recent videos Tim. I don't listen to the podcast anymore but this type of content is super interesting to me. Please keep going and make more!! I've built an entire career applying your meta-learning strategy to the point where I've now got a serious background in multiple different skillsets that don't usually come together. Thanks for all you've done!
Thank you Tim!
As someone who's been reading Hafez since I was 10, I can tell you that the original script is even more complex and "thought provoking"! Also, you don't need to understand it to enjoy the sound of it!
My parents took my brother, sister and I to maybe 10-15 wildly different churches. I hadn't thought of that since this video. It was definitely an interesting experience, looking back. Especially since we weren't particularly religious. One was a pretty wild all black church, they were vibrant in there expression and laughing at us sticking out in the crowd. It was great!
i listened to this how-to with some gentle instrumental bluegrass playing softly in the background. would recommend.
This is so crazy I'm reading Travels With Charlie right now! Highly recommend anything by Steinbeck!
that's cool, slim odds, so...
The indices at the front of the book is a real winner in my book! Thanks for helping me to retool the idea better.
Thank you so much for making these videos and making them not pertain to anything that’s going on on TV or in the world! I really really really appreciate it it’s like a breath of fresh air thank you so much, have a great day! 💌💌
I never done note taking on a *physical book* but it's a good idea since I sometimes lose post its I mark in books etc. and with Kindle, I don't have the curiosity to *"look through it again"* like I do with my physical books.🤔
*On another note, Tim reading us a poem, is the highlight of my quarantined day* 😂
Glad you’re healthy and continuing to create content. Thanks, Tim!
Solid quote from the book: “I think he didn’t like hisself, And when that is so the subject must usually must find an area for dislike outside himself else he would have to admit his self contempt.”
I have made similar observations in the past. I wish that I could remember that quote, but I know my memory will fail me in a few minutes.
"In one eye and out the other" 😜 He knows me to well.
Great video, and as an Iranian I have to complement your remarkable pronunciation of 'Haafez' . Thanks Tim, I've learned a lot from your method. Cheers
I love that Tim demonstrates that books should be thoroughly interacted with-the pages should be dog eared and the spaces should be scribbled in. A book is only as valuable as the information I am able to extract from it. I’m going to employ these strategies.
I’m in love with the fact you read ACTUAL books with paper pages then write in them!!! No devices here. Beautiful. 😍🥰🤓 📚
Edit: note to self...watch full video before commenting to prevent 🦶 in 👄
One of the things I appreciated about the experience of growing up on Marine Corps bases was the exposure I had to different Protestant traditions. There was usually a single chapel and whichever denomination was practiced by the chaplain stationed there, was subsequently practiced by the attendees. Baptist, Lutheran, Episcopalian...it was an incredible education. Sometimes I would stay for the Catholic mass afterward with my friend Nora. Oh, and everyone would connect between services under a tent outside to nosh on crullers. What a gift that was during my childhood. 😊
As a kid I went to different churches with my friends. I fell in love with the Catholic Church and now have converted! It’s good to expose yourself to all denominations. 😇
This is an old video, but I just watched it. I write down page numbers of good quotes or ideas on the back pages of a book. I used to keep a “Commonplace Book”, where I captured the nice turns of phrase. Haven’t kept up with that, unfortunately. Great talk Tim.
Great video Tim! What's really changed the game for my retention is Readwise. Highly recommend.
Natalie Goldber's book, Writing Down the Bones, is one of my favorite books, ever. I've not seen many people talk about it-- happy to see it on your list :).
Tim you really changed my life i swear to god I love you Greetings from Germany
Perfect video in time when I am reading more at home and it becomes hard to remember all the good content. Thanks
When I first read 'The 4 hour workweek' I also got bombered with negative comments regarding the book and its author from other prominet people I look up to who preached 100 hour work weeks are the thing for success, I should say; we are sometines taught to hate wrongly by the people we follow simply because of their insecurities and trying to get their point accross
Tim you're awesome man.
Tim, I was thoroughly delighted by these reviews. Will you consider once a month with 5 books covering different genres offering your reviews?

My next action will be making notes on next actions when reading a book. Thank you for this lesson Mr. Ferriss.
Dude one of the greatest post ever! Thanks Tim!
Wooowww. Your videos have been paradigm shifting in my thought process & more specifically examining and refining my thinking via writing , reading & journaling. Thanks
Tim is a well-rounded individual who can teach on all things.
Always find something useful in your videos. "Great you've read a book, so what?" = Make action blocks with the next actions. Great stuff!
Love this. Taking notes manually on the print book is so precious and irreplaceable.
Hello Diana 👋
How are you doing today?
Tim ferris has mastered speech so well. he speaks clearly and conveys precisely what he wants to in a concise way.
Why arent there any videos of his teaching how to get better at speech.? And if there are, kindly comment the link . Thankyou
We have some very similar note taking habits. I use a pencil so I can amend as I go. I underline ... strike through ... small circle sentences. I screenshot thoughts I do not want to forget, then transfer to a writing doument, then save as a pdf file then upload to a flashdrive. I also add all kinds of notes onto the front pages of the book so I can find them later.
Another shared experience ... When I was a child my mother needed a babysitter on Sundays so she would drop me off at a different church through out my life. One of the greatest educational experiences of my life. Baptist ... Catholic ... Mormon ... Jewish Temple ... Seventh Day Adventist ... Methodis ...
Very in depth thank you for this. When you mentioned extracting lessons from both fiction and nonfiction it got me thinking... can you make a video talking about Ferris insights from the Lord of the Rings? :D
Good idea !!!
Since 2007 I am writing and courating my own digital wikipedia. I note quotes, copy/paste paragraphs of books in it. All combined with search tags, sources, day of finding it. I learned that many hundreds of pages 10 point text can’t be handled that great - even on a modern laptop. Gherefore I start a new textfile. Today I am writing in my fourth textedit file.
you gonna make that info public?
Tim-you should make a Book Digest podcast. Each episode could be short (five to ten minutes) and it could cover your index creation (for new books) or the entire index (for previously read books). More focused than book summaries-your commentary would bring unique and genuine value to the listener/reader. Monetization possibility-access to the episodes is only given to people that buy the book through your affiliate link. With your fanbase, this could be HUGE! And you would be doing what you already love to do.
Reading Anthony de Mello’s “Awareness” right now - these tips will definitely come in handy. You’re the man, Tim!
remember this book being mentioned few times in his podcasts...in episode with Safi Bahchal if not mistaken
It’s my basket, how are you finding it?
Superb book. Highly recommend
You guys might not know this but the book is mostly a transcription from a lecture series that he gave called "Wake Up to Life". That's how good and powerful an orator he was. See archive.org/details/Awareness_AnthonyDeMello_WayToLove_Audiobook
Eddie Slowburn definitely an eye-opener. also refreshingly colloquial.
Loved Steinbeck's mobile truck washing machine - 5 gallon bucket. Never tried the 'beer milkshake'.
I don’t believe this guy said the word “Umm” the whole video! Impressive 😂

This is great Tim. Thanks for sharing. I do something similar, but place all of my notes (and amazing quotes) in a notebook. I do this as the chances of me revisiting an actual book twice in a year are slim. However, with these notes easily at my disposal, I can review them often and be re-inspired.
It's strange that i have been doing similar things in order to read and property digest books. I also write notes separately later in my Evernote, of all the important index points, after completing the book. This has been very effective for me.
Loved this video! Got all your books and been following you for years now! Thanks for being a mentor to me! your on of the best teachers out there! Kind regards, Anthony
Feathered Friends bookmark! Handmade in Seattle Since 1972. I like your style Tim.
Reading the the 4-hour work week for the 1st, you are awesome... thx
After implementing the GTD process for the first time over the last couple of weeks, this feels like a timely watch.
I, too take notes in my books as I read them. I like how you created an index.
Thanks for a glimpse into how your mind works! I like how you find lessons & takeaways from seemingly unrelated fields & apply them to your life or endeavors
Would love to also hear about your approach for audiobooks! :)
I acknowledge your appreciation for learning with humour. I was hesitant to use humour when I started speaking and writing my book, but authors like you give me the encouragement to be both hilarious and beneficial. Thank you. :)
Just being around book is quite uplifting vibe.
The funny thing about persian poetry for me is, when I read it in persian... It is so beautifully written and rhymes that I don't delve into the meaning very much but when I read it in english even though it doesn't rhyme nor many structures can make it through the translation( happens in almost all translations) ... it makes me think. I'm like that's so deep man... I never looked at it that way 😂. It's like looking at the poems in a whole new perspective and I might even enjoy it more.
I was also impressed by the observation Steinbeck made about the vet. It reminded me of a few people I have encountered. Wait - this isn’t a book club is it! LOL
I'm incredibly interested in becoming a professional in the field of psychedelic psychiatry and consciousness studies. In fact, I think this is my path to the freedom you've defined. I'd love to hear more about the resources you've found!!
The writer who introduced morning pages - their definition of freedom combined with what you said “There is freedom in constraint, there is freedom in focus” mirrors Jocko Willinck’s discipline = freedom philosophy.
Brilliant, really brilliant. That's also my take on reading that it should be done for a meaning, for a lesson, for a change.
Thanks Tim. Another high-value post. And the comments have great ideas too!
Now I'll try to do the same as he did..I love reading books but being a non native English speaker I just find it quiet difficult to comprehend some English books I'll have to read it multiple times
Thank you for those great tips Tim !!!!!!👌💜
It was probably a year and a half ago that I had to dig through your podcast episodes to find and record a lot of these tips for myself-nice to have them all in once place now :)
It looks like a WeWork common area in the background! Thanks for all you do, Tim.
I saw a great book on Amazon:
"A call to Gratitude"
it's a great book for all that this year brought us. Very short and simple. I recommend it
Love this Tim and thank you. I'm a notetaker but not as good as this; it all makes sense. I like REAL books but will try once again to embrace my dusty Kindle! Just ordered two of those books as I finally get to writing seriously :)
Simple yet effective.
Thanks for sharing.
Looking over some recent reads that I can thank you for recommending or talking about on your show: de Mello, Tift, Pofeldt, Irvine...just a few, possibly also, Pollan, Essentialism, Black Hole Focus, "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind", Kondo,..oh, and Ferriss..the list goes on!
Thanks for sharing your tips on notes, I'm adapting similar methods which all go into Evernote/Google Drive
wow! I've been searching about this - how Tim Ferriss reads and takes notes - for a few months now! (and I think many people too) Bull's eye content Tim!
Been waiting for this on how Tim takes notes 📝 this comes handy. In kindly is quiet simple when you highlight passages then transfer them to ur pc
