To learn more than ever from important non-fiction books, join me on Shortform: https://shortform.com/jeffsu. Youβll get a 5-day free trial and a discounted annual subscription. One of my favorite books on Shortform is "Why We Sleep" by Matthew Walker (although reading the book has made me a bit more anxious about losing sleep as well...)

Well I sometimes have a hard time committing myself to reading a non-fiction book because I feel like I HAVE to take comprehensive notes. So, I decided to make The Most Flexible Book Notes Template (for Notion of course) that helps me reduce the friction of reading non-fiction books. This flexible Notion book notes template allows you to dial up OR DOWN your commitment to the book as you see fit. Put another way, you are given permission to "stop" reading a book if you feel like it's not for you. Not only does this encourage you to read more, but it also helps you to take better notes on the books as well. I walk through my entire Notion setup, and I also share this Book Notes template on my website. So feel free to make a copy of my Notion template and track your reading progress in Notion as well!
