reading after their formal education


So start eating more dead trees

more effectively (and digitally)...


Say hello to the Kindle
And ways you can supercharge your learning with it

2. Take
your library
everywhere

Syncs with iPhone, iPad, Desktop


3. Sharing accounts


4. Using
Highlights
and Notes


5. See what
others are
highlighting

Now ... how to read a book


1. Be intentional; read with purpose


2. Read to answer a question


3. Read for ideas


4. Read for application


5. Read for exploration &
to expand your perspective


6. Skim the table of contents
for thought process & ﬂow


7. Pick out the marshmallows


8. Don’t lose the context


9. Highlight and review


10. Now, share it with someone
