November Books Update
About little over six weeks ago I decided to tackle my lack of reading progress [with math]({% post_url 2020-10-06-books-update %}), deducing that if I simply read a certain minimum number of pages per day, I'll finish every book on my list by year's end. Welp...It's working.
Even though I added two books to my original list, I'm still ahead of schedule:
-
The Gift of Failure by Jessica Lahey ✅ DONE
-
The Coddling of the American Mind by Greg Lukianoff & Jonathan Haidt ✅ DONE
-
The Right Side of History by Ben Shapiro ✅ DONE
-
Competing Against Luck by Clayton M. Christensen ✅ DONE
-
Badass: Make Users Awesome by Kathy Sierra ✅ DONE
-
Demand Side Sales by Bob Moesta ✅ DONE
So, what's left?
-
The Innovators Solution by Clayton M. Christensen (280 pages)
-
Scale by Geoffrey West (Audio, 14hrs 47min remaining)
-
Eloquence by Mark Forsyth (Audio, 3hrs 43min remaining)
And just for fun if I have time:
- The Abide Guide: Living Like Lebowski by Oliver Benjamin and Dwayne Eutsey (256 pages)
It's difficult to judge how the audio books will go since I usually consume those at different times that regular readin' books, but the math for the non-audio books works out as follows:
Total pages: 536 (counting The Abide Guide)
Days left: 35
Pages per day needed: 15.31
After a slow first month of not reading at all, I really got into a groove and made huge progress. I have a new morning routine to thank, which I'll most likely be writing about next, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
