Ever wondered why some people transform their lives through books while others barely remember what they’ve read?

The difference isn’t intelligence—it’s intention and system.

I’m joined again by Nick Hutchison, founder of BookThinkers and author of Rise of the Reader. Nick’s journey from a self-described “jock” who avoided books to a thriving entrepreneur built on reading is both inspiring and practical.

What sets Nick apart is his systematic approach to reading for results:

How to set intentions before opening a book to activate your reticular activating system and uncover exactly what you need.
A step-by-step multi-sensory process for retention—highlighting, rewriting, digitizing, and teaching—that makes insights stick.
Real-world examples of how a single book helped him increase his business’s average deal size from $1,000 to $10,000.

Whether you’re an avid reader or haven’t picked up a book in years, this episode will give you the tools to turn pages into progress and books into breakthroughs.

As Nick reminds us, “the pain of discipline weighs much less than the pain of regret.”
