When i started being like an active reader, i used to feel like every single book i read, i had to read it beginning to end with every word accounted for.

Our brains are not meant to retain all of the content we consume on the internit or consume in books. But that doesn't mean we need to live in a world where we can't reference some of the most interesting things we've consumed later on in life.
