Before picking up a book, ask: Has this survived beyond the moment that created it? Prioritize books that are at least a year old, widely respected, or still being discussed because they contain durable ideas rather than timely reactions. This does not mean you can never read new books, but it does mean being cautious with anything tied too closely to “the current thing.” If the topic is everywhere right now, pause before investing your attention. Give the idea time to settle, let the noise fade, and then choose the books that still seem worth reading after the urgency has passed.
