In a world of constant notifications, endless scrolling, and background noise, we’ve forgotten the original way humans stayed inspired.
Before podcasts.
Before audiobooks.
Before “content.”
We listened. 🇨🇺✨
Deep in the heart of Havana’s historic cigar factories, a remarkable tradition was born: El Lector — the reader. While skilled workers meticulously rolled world-class cigars by hand, one person sat high above the factory floor on a wooden podium, reading aloud.
Not just headlines.
Not just instructions.
But Shakespeare.
Victor Hugo.
Great novels.
Big ideas.
The Count of Monte Cristo!
Stories that carried people beyond repetitive work and into imagination, philosophy, and hope.
The Lector became the heartbeat of the factory — transforming long, demanding days into something richer: a shared education, a shared inner life, a shared sense of dignity.
And this tradition didn’t emerge by accident.
It came from a culture that understands something deeply human:
work feeds the body, but story feeds the spirit.
A Culture Rooted in Grace and Pride
To understand El Lector, you have to understand Cuba.
The people of Cuba are some of the most generous, considerate, and quietly proud people you’ll ever meet. Even with limited resources, there is an abundance of warmth, hospitality, and connection.
In Havana, French-influenced architecture rises with elegance and endurance. Hand-carved wooden furniture tells stories of craftsmanship passed down through generations. Grand piazzas invite gathering, not rushing. Life unfolds in conversation, music, shared meals, and presence.
Tradition matters here.
Culture matters here.
People matter here.
We were even invited into the home of our driver’s mother — not as tourists, but as guests. We sat together, shared food, and absorbed the beauty of Cuban hospitality: simple, heartfelt, and offered without expectation.
In moments like that, Cuba stops being a place you visit — and becomes something you feel.
Why This Still Matters
Factory owners once tried to ban El Lector, fearing the power of ideas. The workers fought to keep their stories alive — because they understood that knowledge, imagination, and meaning are not luxuries. They are necessities.
In many ways, El Lector was the original podcast — a shared listening experience that lifted people beyond their circumstances and reminded them of who they were.
This episode isn’t just a history lesson.
It’s a reminder.
That inspiration doesn’t need to be loud.
That flourishing doesn’t require abundance.
That no matter how repetitive our work may feel, the right story can set our minds free.

In Chapter 11 of Atomic Habits, titled "Walk Slowly, but Never Backward," James Clear emphasizes that mastery of any habit is rooted in consistency rather than striving for perfection.
The journey of habit formation isn't about achieving flawless execution from the start; it’s about the frequency and repetition of your actions. As Hebb's Law states, "cells that fire together, wire together," meaning that the more you practice a habit, the more ingrained it becomes in your brain. So, let’s focus on getting our reps in—no matter how small or slow the progress may seem. Remember, every step forward counts!
