Books

I like the way I feel after reading a novel.

My inner dialogue is observant and clear. It has words for things and processes things one after the other.

Stark contrast to when I’m  terminally online. I feel comparably distracted, absent, nonlinear and reactive.

I was exploring the reading space for awhile and landed on a hypothesis that I never got around to testing: reading novels gets you in flow state.

All the user interviews I did pointed to this.  Ultimately my app became all about getting users into flow state as quickly as possible.  

Anyhoo, now I’m here shilling debit cards.  But I still read a lot!
