Sometimes just the thought of that fact that there is so much I need to read and so much knowledge I need to gain keeps me from reading. I wish it didn't.
Interesting take. I’ve found reading to be a great source of inspiration for me, especially if it’s similar to the type of writing I’m doing at that moment (short story, newsletter, etc). But I agree with you, in the sense that there is this pressure from the world to have read every book under the sun.
Harun, you make a solid point there. If it’s the type of writing i’m doing right now, the book makes me want to read it and swallow it (if starving and out of groceries).

Exactly. It’s easier to be engaged with something when it’s relevant to you.
