Changing my Reading Strategy

[Natasha Tori Maru]

I'm 2/3 of the way through Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg.

Highly recommend.

It has triggered some huge insights for me. The book is not what it seems.

Reading this one as there are some small tasks you probably wouldn't be able to properly engage with if this were consumed as an audiobook. Possible, but much easier to circle and note.

Yeah, It’s a really good book and he nails just about everything I would say. You can apply what he teaches to your own self talk as well. Very powerful stuff. I listened to the audio version then I read it because I knew I didn’t get everything I wanted out of it.

Thanks for sharing.

On a tangent: listening AND reading (together at the same time) may increase your comprehension or memorization of the subject.

I would love to do more of that but I haven't found an app that seamless sync both, however. Audible + Kindle has many bugs and would often desynchronize between one or the other (I tried the "immersive reading" feature without success).

Edit: Has someone used the audible captions feature? It seems this one may suffice what I wanted originally.
