    I’m finding that over the long run my quality of life is directly correlated with how much I read. Not sure if causation, but interesting nonetheless.

        In your experience, does it matter what you read? Because I had a longstanding habit of reading blog posts, but after recently shifting to reading more books, I've noticed that my thoughts are higher quality.

        Books are harder to read but I’ve noticed the same

        If you have the time to do guilt-free reading it’s a good indicator you’ve built a life that really works for you.

        I find Blinkist amazing as a first pass filter for stuff I want to read, it has increased my "useful" reading, especially for business books

        Right. 1. What you read. 2. What you retain. 3. What you implement. You can turn into a flaneur or philosopher or use your readings to be an action oriented individual. For instance, what did you read to launch Lambda?

        I noticed for me it’s a lagging indicator. I read more when I’m happier/healthier/more engaged. And I can barely read at all when I’m anxious, upset, etc. for long periods of time (weeks, months).

        Looking at it from a different angle, the quality of my life diminishes when I don't read. I now schedule reading time, and protect that schedule, for this reason.

        Have found this for myself too. Working out many ideas and situations in the abstract/imagination makes dealing with actual variance of life easier.
