The Case
Imagine a guy named Mike Ross, who hasn’t cracked a book since high school. He relies solely on audiobooks, but it’s not working out so well. Mike admits he always has to be listening to something.
Sound familiar? It’s a common habit in our fast-paced world. But here’s the kicker: Mike’s wife cheated on him with three men. And those men? They’re avid readers. Ouch.
The Motivation
Mike’s not just trying to get smarter; he’s on a mission to win his wife back by becoming a reader himself.
Conclusion
This scenario highlights the difference between passively listening and actively reading. While audiobooks have their place, they might not always lead to deep comprehension. If you find yourself in Mike’s shoes, it might be time to pick up a book.
