Many people are open minded hope to get many nutrition as much as possible when reading, but one's working memory area only has 5 grids.
That is reading a book, one time, you can not remember more than 5things, this is unchangable body limit.
Limit can bring efficiency.
So how does common people read a book in 30 minutes and finish noting? The voice speed limit is 200words each minute even much lower if you have a concept of translating words into voice. and habit is very important, do not have bad habit or you will have no hope for better.
there is a good method with 16blanks.
Step1:find the question you most want to ask to this book.
download the A4 mode, everytime you read a book, just write down.
Book name.
What answer you most wnat to get in this book.
What is the motive you put forward.
Step 2: limit 30minutes rapidly digest 16key words
start to rapidly read
it means start to view fastly, write down key words or paragraph you think most related
total 16lattices, fill in key words you observed.
remember to put a timer by side, strictly limit 30minutes at most.
Step 3: sort out 3-5 key points towards to these 16key words
looking at these words, sort out 3-5 key points you thought
this 16 key words you will find they are talking about the same several things and they can be concentrated 3-5 emphasis or a series of actions.
Step4: repeat the experience
holding this A4 paper, repeat it to your friends right away about your gaining in this book
you will be shocked that you actually can repeat the whold book points and the ins and outs
The reason(principle) behind this：
opened questions and closed questions
1 human working memory zone only have 5 lattices
2 limit can bring efficiency
3 other notices
everytime you reading you have different tastes because one time you "i want apple", the other time you "i want orange" etc......repeat, don't be worry about losing something.
Think about when you using search engine, just treat this method as searching in a book.
reading how to start a startup.
lecture1
ideas, products, teams and execution
the specific passion should come first and then the startup second
the idea definition is very broad, includes the size and the growth of the market, the growth strategy for the company, the defensibility strategy, and so on. When you're evaluating an idea, you need to think through all these things, not just the product. If it works out, you're going to be working on this for ten years so it's worth some real up front time to think through the up front value and the defensibility of the business. Even though plans themselves are worthless, the exercise of planning is really valuable and totally missing in most startups today.
Another way of looking at this is that the best companies are almost always mission oriented.
It's difficult to get the amount of focus that large companies need unless the company feels like it has an important mission
A third advantage of mission oriented companies is that people outside the company are more willing to help you. You'll get more support on a hard, important project, than a derivative one
There's no way I know of to get through the pain of a startup without the belief that the mission really matters
why to start a company
just want to start a company for the sake of starting a company
So the 4 common reasons, just to enumerate them
it's glamorous, you'll get to be the boss, you'll have flexibility, especially over your schedule, and you'll have the chance to have bigger impact and make more money then you might by joining a later stage company
So important to keep in mind the context for what kind of company you're trying to start and like where you will actually be able to make it happen.
So what's the best reason?
Sam already talked about this a little bit, but basically you can't not do it. You're super passionate about this idea, you're the right person to do it, you've gotta make it happen. So how does this break down?
This is a wordplay, you can't not do it in two ways. One is you're so passionate about it that you have to do it and you're going to do it anyways. This is really important because you'll need that passion to get through all of those hard parts of being an entrepreneur that we talked about earlier. You'll also need it to effectively recruit, candidates can smell when you don't have passion and there are enough entrepreneurs out there that do have passion so they may as well work for one of those! So this is table stakes for being an entrepreneur. Your subconscious can also tell when you don't have passion and that can be a huge problem.
The other way to interpret this is the world needs you to do it. This is validation that the idea is important, that it's going to make the world better, so the world needs it. If it's not something the world needs, go do something the world needs. Your time is really valuable, there are plenty of good ideas out there, maybe it's not your own, maybe it's at an existing company, but you may as well work on something that's going to be good.
The second way to interpret this is that the world needs you to do it. You're actually well suited for this problem in some way. If this isn't true, it may be a sign that your time is better spent somewhere else. But best case scenario if this isn't true, you outcompete the team for which it is true and it's a suboptimal outcome for the world and that doesn't feel very good.
So drawing this back to my own experience at Asana, Justin and I were reluctant entrepreneurs before we founded Asana, we were working at Facebook and we were working on a great problem. We would basically work all day long on our normal projects and then at night we would keep working on this internal task manager that was used internally at the company and it was just because we were so passionate about the idea, it was so clearly valuable that we couldn't do anything else.
So you can build something that a large number of users like a little bit, or a small number of users love a lot. This saying application in life we often see like the singer or songs you love, and foreign trading products.
But if you start with ambivalence, or weak enthusiasm, and try to expand that, you'll never get up to a lot of people loving it. So the advice is: find a small group of users, and make them love what you're doing.
Cofounder relationships are among the most important in the entire company.
