How a single book changed Matthew McConaughey's life forever

(thread) 🧡

[Source: @tferriss podcast with @McConaughey]
Matthew was a stellar student at the University of Texas at Austin with a 3.82 GPA. He was dead set on becoming a defense attorney.

However, near the end of his sophomore year, he was
taking a lot of liberal arts classes to fulfill his degree requirements.
Around that time, Matthew was writing a lot of short stories and became fascinated by storytelling. But, he didn't feel confident in pursuing it further.

Even after a phone call with a close friend who encouraged Matthew to pursue storytelling or acting, he waved it off.

How to use post-it notes to become a better reader.

(thread) 🧡
1/
Why use post-it notes?

β€’ It allows you to visually see with ease where the important passages of a book are located

This comes in handy if you want to use the information you read for a future project, book, or simply just to revisit a valuable lesson.
2/
How do you use post-its?

For starters, don’t put them on the top or bottom of a page.

You want to put them on the side because the side of a book is longer in length & thus you can spread the notes out which makes it easier to access. ImageImage

β€’ Highlighter
1) Write your name & the date on the inside of the front cover.

If you ever forget or mix up books, you’ll know which is yours.

The date serves as a type of journal entry in your life and can tell you how long it took to read the book.
