>>532470762Good to Great. It's a famous business book but it's a bit outdated now. Kinda want to get through it. I ordered some fiction (sci fi) books today. I'm trying to read more fiction and not just work-related stuff all the time.
Some of these
>>532470931> Carroll Quigleys Tragedy and HopeDo you listen to Jay Dyer, by any chance?
>>532470762I'm about 1/2 way through re-reading (see image). I usually re-read all three books every few years
>>532471485And these
>>532471019I just read every 100th page Your kung foo is good
>>532470762Reading is for women

>>532471677noice
>>532471485>>532471564We can barely see
>>532470762Bookshelves like this scream "undeveloped man"You probably think it looks like you have a bunch of interests but you have zero interests. This is a huge huge part of why you can't attract women. You aren't interested in anything and can't talk about anything and don't have passion for anythingAll that demi intellectual shit and then dungeon crawler carl just about made me laugh out loud
>>532470931Is it any good?
>>532471876Youre probably right. I'll do some shadow work and report back!
>>532471492Not regularly, but it’s where I heard about QuigleyIs that you Jay ?
>>532470762This pic has a smell
>>532471289Very based. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am. My takeaway is more empathy for the Indians who were treated like garbage and how depraved people can be
>>532470762I should continue reading Plato. Read the Lysis last week.
Pol! lol
Left my fuckin book on my desk at home, gone through this whole day of work without being able to read on my downtime. It's so over for me, bros.
>>532471972Read fiction. People who only read non fiction come across as soulless..start with Steinbeck. Just my suggestion
>>532470762nothingwhy do I need to read anything? You are gay
>>532470762I’m reading mancala
>>532470762I read me many a novel and play much board games so my brain get big smarts.
>>532471934Yes it’s like a Rosetta Stone when figuring out the origins of the globalist system /thinking
>>532470762Reading is for brainlets.
>>532471019Nice back yard. Fucking wholesome af, a dude being retarded in his yard, total freedom.He even gave himself a fucking black belt, lol, Epic!
>>532472124Thanks, man. Im working on empathy so I hope its a steppingstone
>>532470762only reading shitposts today, I only recently picked up reading as I commute to work one day a week, so I read on the train. On the Children of Dune atm.Might pick up something educational later, but my girlfriend bought me the wrong gifts once so I have some of his sons books to read too.used to read a lot as a kid, started Lotr in prime school, at least I finished it before all the movies came out.
>>532470762been rereading borgata, the history of the american italian mafiadid you know that jews and shitalians used to be close allies?
>>532472205>Oh my zog, you don't onions out over Warhammer 40k, you read but you read things that pique your interest, you're a soulless sudra nigger slave
>>532471805>downloaded in 2015>never opened
>>532471506I suggest Leon Uris’ Trinity, if you like fictional biographies. Very well written> The book tells the story of the intertwining lives of the following families: the Larkins and O'Neills, Catholic hill farmers from the fictional town of Ballyutogue in County Donegal; the Macleods, Protestant shipyard workers from Belfast; and the Hubbles.> The book describes a number of historical events, from the Great Famine of the 1840s to the Easter Rising in 1916.>>532472059No lol, but I’ve listened to him a good bit. I need to read more elite books, I also got some of the philosophy books he suggested
>>532472059Not who you were talking to but I read Tragedy & Hope and Anglo-American Establishment because of Jay and I became pro Atlanticism. Anglo gang gang for life
>>532472586I heard most famous mobsters were jewish but I dunno
>>532472657Nah they were all in the past couple of months (and will all be read this year) except for Nietzsche. I'm working through this reading list.I don't know why I put off reading Nietzsche for so long. He is a pleasure to read. I was expecting something really dry and tedious but I like his writing style (even though I disagree with his anti-Christian views).
>>532472760yeah, arnold rothstein
>>532472723Have Anglo American establishment waiting in line
>>532473053I've read it twice but maybe because I'm British I came away with a different perspective to Jay.
>>532470762This shitty thread about your gay books. I could have been reading some interesting political commentary but faggots pike you keeo using this as some sort of personal kike blog.

You should read The Histories by polybius.>>532472685Wow a book about the potato famine. Sounds even less interesting than watching corn grow.>>532472992Save yourself the trouble. Just dont start.
>>532472992Once you finish Nietzsche you’ll have a working understanding of Mithraism and Freemasonry and what they really meant by “forging a man” and how it really does boil down to a gradual covering, masking, and dimming of one’s internal moral compass (aka the Light of God), so that they can start acting like psycho evil dicks and not feel guilty about it. And how the spiritism and magic shit is mostly window dressing and taboo-breaking training.

>>532474324Considering that. Might go with Lulu.>>532474088Eh. Been working on a meditation system based in Christian mysticism and Eastern practice. Nowhere near ready yet
>>532473708It's not a prodrug book fren, its called drugs as weapons against us, a leftist book about the cia using drugs as a weapon. It's a good read if you understand it's told from a left wing perspective
>>532473952> Martin Lings is overrated. A lot of his sources are apocryphical.I’ve heard people saying that in online reviews of the book. That said, it’s a great read in terms of its composition, I’m getting very good information on where your Prophet comes from, and it’s on Timothy Winter’s reading list (Shaykh Abdul Hakim Murad), so I’ll take it as authoritative for the time being and find the apocrypha later. I’m just a beginner to all this https://www.acommonword.com/docs/TJ%20Winter%20Booklist.pdfWhat Islamic books would you suggest? Ultimately, I want to get into Sufi and philosophical works, but I want to start with the basics first
>>532473331Based art lover. I like the apples too
>>532471764I'm sorry, pic was out of focus, but that might be better, some of those are controversial, like the biography on dracula, a lot of people think he's not dead, that he's undead you see. Could offend many.
>>532471677Sewing machines are one of the best inventions in the history of mankind. Men made this thing that dramatically increased productivity allowing women to become more useful. Before machines all clothes were hand made taking forever and had tobe custom made to fit the man. After a few standard sizes could be mass produced. Men could say I'm tall biotch, hand me that, have the pants hemmed, pay, and leave the store, all in less than an hour. Massive advantage. Not to mention the seeing if leather hoods, military uniforms and gear allowing two world wars, and childrens toys and clothes. It used to be common for baby boys to wear dresses because they fit as the baby grew and diaper changes were easier, but seeing machines enabled cheap sex specific clothing. The speed and repeatable stitching with superior strength allowed heavy jackets to be mass produced too basically ending frostbite too. Amazing machines. The old singer type machines will literally last forever with a minimum of maintenance. I have some from the 1950s still going strong.

>>532475645I got a brother machine and the very first stitch I did was the most complicated one and it did it perfectly for 3 linear feet of seam. I was like WTF IS THIS DEVIL MAGIC
>>532471019I hate that the human form can degrade to this level.
>>532470762Fire and Blood. The game of thrones related fictional history of the series. Pretty sloppy but still within one of my preferred genres, plus I want to read it before watching house of the dragon.I only read for entertainment, not for self improvement or education, that tends to be videos.

Does anyone else struggle with retaining the things you read? And I’m only talking about fiction.I have a hard time with it. I keep trying different methods of memorising plots using notes, voice notes, notes written in the pages themselves, it often feels like I’m spending 25% of the time reading notes actually reading.I could try to recall the exact plots (ok they’re not incredibly memorable) of all of the Conan the barbarian stories I read in a compilation last year but really they all sort of blur now.
>>532477070It's pretty good so far
>>532477322Had a problem with that. I started fasting from youtube and 4chan 2 days a week. Recall is beginning to improve

>>532470762just finished 'snow crash' (excellent and well paced) about to start 'cryptonomicon' by neal stephenson,
>>532477546Nice. Love sci-fi. Still need to read Neuromancer lol
>>532470762I can't read. That's why I'm on 4chan.
>>532477625necromancer is a great book, and the other two in the trilogy are worth a read
>>532476969I literally tried for 5 years following every type of instruction. Your mind can either accurately measure distances or not. If you can’t then it doesn’t matter what techniques you have, you literally will not create something that looks accurate to what you’re depicting, or that looks correct if it’s from imagination. And every cunt who tells you that it’s possible to learn to draw never “learned to draw” himself. Everyone who has ever been a good artist was never a bad artist.By that I mean, little kid picks up a pencil and draws a cat, he does it quite accurately and keeps doing it, his classmates all suck at it, some keep trying but nobody really improves significantly and then most get embarrassed and quit, he keeps doing the thing he’s already talented at and makes very minor improvements all the while telling himself that he’s only as good as he is because of hard work, when he’s merely developing naturally into a more competent adult.I’ll repeat; nobody who is good at art was ever bad at it. They picked up a pencil as a child and accurately depicted what they were drawing.
>>532476880It is as much of an innate skill as playing music. Some people are naturally talented. Normal people must learn. The biggest skill you need to learn in art is spatial reasoning, the art equivalent of musical pitch intervals.I am reading pic rel. I was astonished that Jean had such a grasp on the progressive self-destructive mindset all the way back in the 1970s.On the eve of the arrival of almost 1 million blacks by boat, the professor who has lived in this town for generations watches the hordes celebrate arriving in France. A young, white man approaches and is excited at how wonderful all this is.>Professor: "And you think you're like them? Your skin is white. You've probably been baptized. You speak french, with the excellent people from around here. Perhaps you've got relatives in the region?">Young man: "So what? My real family is all the people coming off those boats. Now I have a million brothers, sisters, fathers, and mothers. A million wives. I'll have a child with the first one I see, a dark child, and then I'll no longer see myself in anyone.">"And then you won't even exist anymore. You'll be lost in the multitude. You won't even know you exist.">"That's all I ask for."
>>532477807Leftists such as that can be understood as dopamine addicts exactly the same as heroin addicts. They need a way to feel that they’re of value but have no personal qualities, so having “good” opinions stands in.Being more charitable to someone who you’re unrelated to and won’t necessarily contribute back to you will always seem more generous than keeping your investment within your in-group, and on top of that the kikes instilled in everyone the notion that in-group preference is only ever inspired by irrational hatred after the war, so these very weak people only have one notion of how to make themselves seem like a valuable person.I hate them as much as I hate any other fucking junkie. More in fact.
>>532477737Have you ever taken an IQ test? Even just an online one? I take issue with your idea that drawing ability is totally innate, but there are some aspects of it which could be. I've always struggled with perspective, proportion and mirroring.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_intelligence_(psychology)https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/FSIQ/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_sense
>>532477737All children enter a stage where they draw in symbols. They draw what they think they see instead of what is really there. Learning to draw is unlearning these symbols. If you haven't tried it yet, Drawing in the Right Side of the Brain is pretty good. I'm no pro, but I have seen significant improvements. Also, drawabox works well if you want a free resource.
>>532477807Everyone has to learn. Some people just have certain neurological traits that make certain parts of learning easier. Some people also practice more and earlier. You can't know how easy or difficult it will be for you until you try.
>>532478194Online IQ tests are always inaccurate though right? They’re just meant for you to glaze your ego. I got 110 on one I tried when I was about 18 or so, but I doubt I’m any higher than 100.

>>532477215I confess... I've downloaded over 1000 books on linguistics (including grammars and some other books not in the folder), and I know I will not read the vast majority of them in my lifetime :/I just hoard them like an autist
>>532478410There’s something dirty about having to talk to leftists because for them, their opinions are very rewarding for them to signal. It’s like talking to someone who is verbally masturbating.
>>532476078I'm so glad fren. One of the first things i made was a pillow case. A simple project but extremely useful.

>>532478524You go through pillow cases quickly?
>>532478491Maybe I have become a boomer, but I don't do digital books anymore. I don't end up reading them. But I do read physical books, so I buy physical.
>>5324777375 years should be enough to produce at least something worth looking at. And definitely enough to get at least some grasp on perspective.I reckon either you weren't putting too much conscious effort, were trying it on and off instead of practicing daily, or are just selling yourself short.
>>532474844Aisha Musa, Juan Cole, Sean W. Anthony, Gerlof Van Vloten, Robert Hoyland, somewhat Jonathan Brown. I like heteredox writers but that's just me.Also i don't have much regard for hadiths being a Quranist myself so that's a lot of weight off one's shoulders since traditional Islam is 99% hadith anyway.

>>532478408They're not perfect. Supposedly that one is actually weighted harder because of the kinds of people that have taken it (academics, etc.). It's the best freely available one and I don't personally care enough to get mine done professionally. When I first took it, I scored like 115 on the verbal and spatial components, but got 95 on the memory component. I was a bad insomniac at the time and had anxiety/depression. Since I started taking care of myself and taking SSRIs, my memory IQ has gone back up to 110

>>532470762The Gifts of the JewsNATIONAL BESTSELLER • The author of the runaway bestseller How the Irish Saved Civilization takes us on another "captivating...persuasive as well as entertaining" journey into history (The New York Times), recreating a time when the actions of a small band of people had repercussions that are still felt today.The Gifts of the Jews reveals the critical change that made western civilization possible. Within the matrix of ancient religions and philosophies, life was seen as part of an endless cycle of birth and death; time was like a wheel, spinning ceaselessly. Yet somehow, the ancient Jews began to see time differently. For them, time had a beginning and an end; it was a narrative, whose triumphant conclusion would come in the future. From this insight came a new conception of men and women as individuals with unique destinies--a conception that would inform the Declaration of Independence--and our hopeful belief in progress and the sense that tomorrow can be better than today. As Thomas Cahill narrates this momentous shift, he also explains the real significance of such Biblical figures as Abraham and Sarah, Moses and the Pharaoh, Joshua, Isaiah, and Jeremiah.Full of compelling stories, insights and humor, The Gifts of the Jews is an irresistible exploration of history as fascinating and fun as How the Irish Saved Civilization.
