First post - The WHY

3 years ago I read my first book in English. I only understood some 40% of the words written in it, enough to understand the story of the book. 

What I didn't expect was the sensation I had once it was finished. Ohh my God, I read it! (I've been trying to do that for some 10 years) I felt unstoppable. 

I realized, it was possible, that gave me souch joy that I wanted more of that feeling. I continued reading books until my understanding got to a 70% - 80%. 

At some point, a friend of mine introduced me to audio books. That was my second relevation, I could go from spending one month reading a book to spending only 6 to 10 hours listening an audio book in only one week! 

Suddenly, my main barriers disappeared, I was able to read a whole book in English and it didn't have to take too long. That very day, I decided that if very successful people can read one book a week, some 52 books a year, even with their busy lives, I might well try and have a go. 

I committed myself to this objective, my brain went from feeling 20% awake during my normal activities to some 90% awake. That's just the sensation I had once I consciously chose to spend some hours listening to quality content from audio books. "Feeding my brain" as I like to think of it. 

That's how everything started some 3 years ago. Now, some 110 books later and a collection of very good podcast has put me in a position in which I feel the need to transfer those main lessons, key points, useful tools to somewhere and maybe even share it. It feels almost like a need for summarizing all this information into specific key points. 

That's what it is about. This is a place to note down the main lessons from the books. Hope it might be useful for you and you find your own revelation, just as I did, that will make you unstoppable. 

Your own revelation might be just around the corner. Have you ever had one? What did you do? I would love to hear from your experience.
