Andrew East sees reading as joy and growth. Books change how he approaches football practice, giving him new perspectives to apply. He compares life to a library, where deep understanding of any subject opens up the whole world.
It sounds so dumb to say, but it's like, books are cool, dude. It's so, it's so fun. You don't have to convince me. You know, Kobe Bryant talks about walking through life and the world kind of becomes your library. Like when you know one thing so deeply that you can start connecting almost anything to it, where it's like, okay, I play, I play football. I can take concepts from this book about perspective and change how I'm approaching my practice the next day. It's like everything becomes connecting. It lights up the world and brings so much color to it where you're like, I can't get enough. And so now I just, my hobby is I read books and I play ping pong and I hang with the kids, so.
