I agree here - the first few weeks after I discovered FS, I read it regularly, but after that there were quickly diminishing marginal returns.

Once you are familiar with the core mental models, most of the intellectual self-help genre (FS, James Clear, Ryan Holiday, Tim Ferris, etc.) is just rehashing the same core ideas over and over again.
