Listen to Books - A new initiative to help individual and organization
Greetings!
I have a great news for you. My last blog You Are Alive!? gave me a brilliant idea. This idea was so exciting that I was unable to sleep whole night. I was just working on the idea whole night.
When I attached my hindi recorded poem with this blog the idea flashed into my mind but I didn't do anything at that time. I went home and this idea was with me.
The idea is very simple but strong and I know many people will love this idea. Let me ask you a question... Do you have time to read books? There are many good books and yet we don't find time to read it... In fact I was a very poor reader and to read book was not my cup of tea. By 2004 I was a snail reader my reading speed was around 87 words per minute with 60% retention. I discovered that my reading speed can be increased and I started working on my reading speed. Now I have collection of more than 5000 books in my personal library at home and I have read all of them more than 2-3 times. Now I read one book a day. How??? Well I learn't speed reading skill and so now its easy for me to read a book of around 300-400 pages in less than 2 hours with 100% understanding and retention. (To learn this skill you can join Read India Read Campaign.)
Anyways, I thought as I have read so many books why can't I share the entire gist of the book to my fellow beings on this planet and if you like the book you can pickup that particular book and read it. And if you want to know only gist of this book then listen to my 5 minutes Book Reading concept (THIS IS THE IDEA THAT FLASHED INTO MY MIND).
And here I present before you my first recording as part of Read India Read Campaign. Feel free to listen to my first book gist. If you have any good books you want me to read and create 5 minute gist for people feel free to email me the book name with author and I will find that book, read that book and create 5 minute gist.
If this idea sounds good to you then share it with as many people as you want.
