Actually, pg says just this in his essay How to Do What You Love: "Except for some books in math and the hard sciences, there's no test of how well you've read a book, and that's why merely reading books doesn't quite feel like work. You have to do something with what you've read to feel productive."

- jrockway 15y agoI don't read books to "feel productive", I read them to take my mind somewhere else for a while. I don't get the whole "feeling productive" thing; if I'm being productive, I'm too focused on producing to feel anything.
