There’s no doubt that developing a lifelong habit of reading is one of the best ways to increase your wisdom and success in life. As the saying goes, “readers are leaders.”

My guest today has taken this to the extreme. In the past five years, Mani Vaya has read over 1,000 books in the fields of business and personal development. He now reads an average of seven books per week.

In this episode, we talk about why every man should read regularly and widely, along with tricks for how to accelerate the way you absorb information from books. Plus, we discuss the merits of quantity-reading vs. quality-reading, the importance of putting knowledge into action, how to know if a book worth your time, and much more.
