What's the most productive way of reading in a day? I'm NEET right now and wanna read as much as possible and sleep well too.

I've read 7 books this year but I feel like I'm behind my target of 50.

Don't force yourself. Fuck goals and shit. If you digest a good book It will be worth more than a hundred. Also fuck jobs man.
I'm a wage cuck myself, and while I can afford to show up drunk at work and get a paycheck worth more than 3 average salaries in my country my objective in life is making enough money so that I can be neet why my books, movies, albums and booze.

I'm a NEET right now as well, temporarily.
Get used to focusing for a long time on a text, it may be hard, but just remember that if you are really set on becoming well-read you're going to need to disregard stuff like video games, or at least relegate it to a small time allotment per day.
It's gotten easier for me, in the beginning I started with the Greeks and could only slog through like 40 pages of the Iliad a day. Now I can do 100 easily and I'm finishing books in 2-3 days on average.
tl;dr get used to focusing for a long time on one thing, eliminate distractions

A fucking neet means you have no job, nor have any plan to get one. So get a job you lazy fuck before worrying about how to read more books

how do you pay your bills? buy groceries? buy books?

unlikely: you have some form of passive income that completely covers your living expenses and then some (rental property, investments, etc.) and are financially leeching off of people less lucky than yourself

less unlikely: you're getting autism bucks and you financially leech off of people who actually (gasp!) go to work every day

likely: you live with relatives or are at least entirely financially dependent on them. you leech off of people who at one point had hopes and expectations for you

certain: you're disappointing everyone who even remotely cares about you

>> No.10761445

Get some actual books. No matter how hard I force myself to read I just cant look at my phone or computer screen for longer than 15 minutes at a time. Dunno if its the same for you.

oh man, hit the nail on the fucking head. The NEET is immunised against all dangers: one may call him a leech, parasite, slob, lazy, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a disappointment and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I've been found out."

Oh you're so right. There's no possible circumstance that could cause someone to have no job, school or training at any given time in their lives outside of their control. All those fuckers using wheelchairs are just lazy pieces of shit with no motivation, too. You're such a smart guy, anon.

Yeah we call them retards. If you're a NEET with nothing else to do it's not hard to focus on improving your reading proficiency. Or inversely, maybe it seems like less pressing of an issue because you have all the time in the world to get nothing done so it's inconsequential. But it's still embarrassing.
