Set aside daily time for reading, if possible. I've been doing 11pm–12am, right before bed. Habits are powerful when you get them going. 3/

If you're like me, it's hard to read when the entire internet is clawing for attention. So... block the internet. https://www.freedom.to/ 4/

Use audiobooks to "read" during times when your eyes are preoccupied: commuting, dishes, laundry, workouts. 5/

Audible's 'platinum' plan costs $11.50/book ($23/two books per month). If it's too much, cancel and restart anytime. You keep credits. 6/

Bonus: Audible will ply you with special offers (read: free books) whenever you try to cancel. Take them up on it! 7/

Along with audiobooks, use wireless headphones. Cords are shackles! Free your hands and arms. You'll find yourself listening a lot more. 8/

If time, not money, is your main constraint, buy audio AND Kindle versions of the same book, then listen along (at 2–3x) while you read. 9/

Listening+reading isn't faster than reading by itself, but it's more immersive and makes it easier to read while e.g. eating breakfast. 10/

After you finish a book, close the loop by tweeting or blogging about it. This can be as simple as sharing your favorite passages. 11/
