I'm having some difficulty getting into the flow of In Search of Lost Time. Could someone who's read it tell me what mindset I should approach it from? Hyperactive focus on every single sentence, or should I let my mind relax and allow to book to make it's way to me?

I just got back from a calisthenics park. Now I gotta cook my lunch but I wanted to lay in my couch with my phone first. I read like 5 pages of Plato in the morning, and after lunch I’m gonna read some more. Felt like watching a movie too, I watched Il Decameron yesterday, pretty good I’ll watch something else by Pasolini probably.

I probably read like 6 books in total and it was children's books. But i'm familiar with every philosophers names but don't know shit about them since philosophy is mental gymnastics.

I know more about Jung's and Frued's personal life than any psych major and i don't know shit about psychology or never read a book on it. I know some basic stuff

tldr i don't read books

Mostly been cleaning up the house for my grandparents to visit tomorrow once they fly in .
Current book reading pic related. I read a short story yesterday from Fyodor Dostoyevsky "The Dream of a Ridiculous Man

I'm too indecisive to choose a book. I keep trying to find some piece of information that will make everything clear to me and give me an all-encompassing philosophy of life that I can operate from in any situation.
The result of that is I judge every book by this impossibly high standard and never read to completion. I haven't finished a book in months despite reading constantly during that time.
