Taken from the show: "Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft, when he was a teenager, he didn't really get along with his parents. And there would be days that would go by that he would be in his room and not speak to anyone, because he was just reading books. And now, you can go on Netflix and check out the little documentary three to three episodes series on Bill Gates and decoding his mind. You can see that he carries around this bag, that's like a it's like a shopping bag that is reusable, the recyclable shopping bags, but it's like made out of fabric instead of plastic. He carries 20 books or something like that in that bag. And he reads them in a week. And every once in a while, I don't know. It didn't say how frequently he would do this. But he would have what's called think week where he would go to a house, a little cabin in the middle of the mountains, where it was just him and his books, and he would just read those books and solve problems.
And so Bill Gates is a perfect example of how reading books is going to effectively increase your capacity to learn, as well as teach you the depths, and the the important aspects of different industries. He's really into energy. He's really into problem solving and helping the human race. And so he studies those books, he studies books that a lot of people probably will never read in their whole life, right? Because they're just too boring and they're too in depth and, but yet his brain he's, he's become an expert reader, and can read 150 pages in a day or in an hour, 150 pages per hour, which means that he could, he can read a ton of books and learn a lot and retain that information a lot. He's become an expert that the next the next rung in the ladder is a group discussion. You will retain a lot more information by discussing it with other people and being able to have a collaborative environment where you guys are talking about maybe a certain problem, and you guys discuss it amongst each other to solve that problem."
