As a function of being naturally curious I used to get sucked down all the curiosity rabbit holes. I would see a link mentioned in a newsletter or on social and immediately lose 30 minutes of my life, never to be regained again.On any given day on ProductHunt, there is a tool being launched offering up a better calendar, to-do list or app claiming to help you with your productivity. Take it from me, it's very easy to lose a day's worth of productivity experimenting with the next 'productivity' app; believe me, I've done it!Over the years, there is definitely one that has stood the test of time and that's Readwise. Built by Tristan Homsi & Daniel Doyon it's an app that has improved my life for the better. With the recent introduction of Readwise Reader, it's become a part of my daily reading & retention flow.If You Read Anything, You Should ReadwiseWhy I love it so much:As I'm highlighting quotes in Kindle from my favorite books, they're being imported to Readwise.Every morning, as part of my daily routine I review previously saved highlights. After several starts and stops over the years, I'm now on a 164-day streak!Over time, I'm recalling more and growing my knowledgeThe new Readwise Reader app now allows me to pull in feeds of my favorite newsletters. Anything I highlight there gets sync'd to Readwise.This process moves you off of the cycle of reading articles just because they look interesting in the moment (just-in-case learning) to a model of queue'ing up article to read a time that makes sense for your workflow and immediate need (just-in-time learning).If one of your goals in 2023 is to not only , but retain more to the knowledge you're acquiring, you owe to yourself to read smarter. I can't recommend Readwise enough. It's definitely 10x'd my retention.Learn more about the Ship30for30 Program: https://fullcast.co/ship30for30/Follow my journey on your preferred social platform!TwitterInstagramFacebookLinkedInMediumTypeshareListen to my other shows:Podcast JunkiesConversations with my fellow podcasting community since 2014Vertical Farming PodcastInterviews with fascinating CEOs & Founders of the leading vertical farming companies from around the world.
