Ep 242 Interview Sessions with Nick Hutchison | Rise of the Reader

On episode 242 I welcome Nick Hutchison, founder of Book Thinkers and author of the Rise of the Reader. Nick read over 400 personal development books, but implementing their valuable lessons was tougher than just finishing the next chapter.

Nick knew self-help books could help him do things like master his social anxiety and fear of public speaking, opening the doors to a successful career in business. Through trial and error, he developed an easy-to-follow framework to retain the knowledge needed to transform his life completely.

In Rise of the Reader he is giving you over 100 habits to implement into your own reading journey and fulfil your dreams. In his book, you will learn: How swapping 15 minutes of social media scrolling for 15 minutes of reading can dramatically impact 20 different areas of your life.

The power of intention when it comes to choosing the right books for you and how much you retain from their knowledge.

How to avoid bias and situational advice in the self-help industry.

Methods for notetaking and information implementation.

More than 100 new habits to improve your health, wealth, and happiness. With relatable anecdotes and engaging stories, Rise of the Reader will inspire and motivate you to take action and embrace the power of reading.
