<ol><li>Implementation intention: this basically means setting an appointment to read.</li><li>Chunking: It means to break down a big task (your book) into smaller, manageable parts.</li><li>Temptation bundling: it happens when we associate a tasks we dislike with something we enjoy.</li></ol>

Psychological tricks to start reading

Tell yourself that after every chapter you read, you are going to reward yourself with the next episode of the show you like.After doing so for a while, you will start to actually like reading, because your brain will associate it with something pleasant.

3. Temptation bundling

One of the main reasons we start reading books and never finish them is the fact that those books seem too big and intimidating.When you break down a book and measure your progress by its chapters, your brain will no longer see it as a huge obstacle you have to overcome.

2. Chunking your book

85 % of millionaires read at least two books per months.So, as cliche as it sounds, people who read, succeed.

Read your way to success

The biggest problem with reading is the starting point, actually starting to read - we buy tons on books for "later" and we never read them.By physically scheduling a time and place for starting to read, you're setting an appoint to do so. And we tend to respect our appointments.

How To Read A Book A Week - 3 Proven Tricks

Surround yourself with people you want to emulate; this will make far less challenging to do the things you should be doing.When you are around social groups where change seems possible, the potential for that change becomes greater.

Peer pressure makes change possible

The best techniques to change something remove the mental effort and can easily be used in a routine you already have.<ol><li>Direct the rational mind by providing a clear direction. Resistance is often a lack of direction.</li><li>Motivate the emotional mind. Knowing something isn't enough to make you change. Break the change into smaller pieces so it's less daunting.</li><li>Shape the path. Tweak the environment. Build habits. When a behavior is habitual, it will not require so much effort.</li></ol>

Remove the mental effort to change happen

If-then planning is a way of deciding beforehand how you will respond to a situation.Deciding in advance when and where you will take specific actions to reach your goal can make you more likely to succeed.

“If-then” plans

Learning about improvement is very easy, but actually improving is really hard.Most any change that requires a lot of consistent mental effort is going to fail because you spend most of the day on autopilot. Research found that more than 40 percent of actions people take every day are not really decisions, but habits.

Knowing isn't doing

Your context influences your decisions. If you make an effort to control your environment, you won't have to exert self-control.If you don't have cookies in your house, you won't be able to eat cookies.

Changing your context

Make the things you want to do take 20 seconds less time to start and let the things you want to keep away from take 20 seconds longer to get going.

Many of us read, yet we are far from reaping its benefits, for we fail to retain the knowledge and apply it into our daily routine. Here is a 5 step strategy to help you reap the benefits:<ol><li>Read</li><li>Harvest</li><li>Curate</li><li>Master</li><li>Categorize</li></ol>

Read Once & Reap the Benefits of Reading 10x 

<ul><li>While curating, the aim is to bring the summary length within 2-5 pages.</li><li>Reframe the ideas, discard the repetitive insights & avoid anecdotes.</li><li>Ensure the document doesn't exceed the page limit of 2-5 pages.</li><li>PRO TIP: While reframing, use Feynman's principle to explain the core idea better. </li></ul>

Curate: Summarize

<ul><li>Inside the "Summaries" folder, create a document with the book name.</li><li>Revisit the highlights and if they still feel insightful, type them in the document.</li><li>If you encounter some similar insights, record them. Don't worry about the summary length.</li><li>PRO TIP: Inside the excel file, create an entry with the book name and its genres/domain.</li></ul>

Harvest: Values

<ul><li>Create a master document for each genre, containing only the concise summary of the related books.</li><li>This will prove resourceful when you need help with a situation.</li><li>For eg: if you are having productivity issues, so instead of re-reading books, you can quickly go through the master document.</li><li>PRO TIP: Try reading these master documents once a month, to recall the learnings.</li></ul>

Categorize: Best of the Best

<ul><li>Whenever you find an insight or learning while reading, highlight it immediately. </li><li>Do not hesitate if a similar idea has been already highlighted, redundancies will be managed later.</li><li>Completed reading? Create a folder on your PC for summaries, if not created already.</li><li>PRO TIP: Inside the folder, create an Excel file to keep track of the books and their genres.</li></ul>

Read: Regularly

<ul><li>Read the summary for the next 10 days.</li><li>Fit the learnings into your daily routine.</li><li>Voila! You have the values with you.</li><li>PRO TIP: Try reading the summary at a fixed time every day, to create a habit.</li></ul>

Master: 10x Values

A mentor once told me it’s better to read one great book ten times than read ten books once. He reasoned if you only read a book once, you can’t glean its powerful lessons. Simply, you don’t retain…
