Here’s a technique that makes reading books feel almost as effortless as swiping down on your social media feed.

It takes your brain’s obsession with novelty and uses it for good.

I call it book scrolling.

1. Bring 3 books (or reading materials) to one sitting.

2. Start with one book.

3. Read until your focus or energy begins to fade.

4. Then switch to a completely different book—new subject, new genre, new author.

That change creates a fresh burst of curiosity and attention. As a result, you can read with focus for longer periods of time.
