If you're passionate enough about reading to do it - HELL YES, congratulations. This is the hard bit. Using the books you read optimally is just the cherry on top. This is my current formula for note-taking and making the most of the books I read, both as I read them, and after I'm done. Hope it helps!

WHO AM I: I'm Elizabeth, a medical student, painter, YouTuber and Podcaster in London. I love to think and talk about life, art, medicine, books and meaning. And also how to find the time to do those things. If you'd like to watch me paint and talk about life, I do that on my podcast (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5NsPe2poaBRA0IPdTxJTQA) and if you'd like to read my thoughts and book notes, I have a newsletter you can join (http://newsletter.elizabethfilips.com/).
