I don't really understand the question. When I read a nonfiction book, if it brings a new perspective that changes my understanding, then it changes my understanding as I read it, I don't do (or need to do) anything else. And if it has something that I want to apply to my daily/work life, then I apply it to my daily/work life when I read it (not as some special process after reading the whole book), handling it the exact same way as if I got "that something to apply" from a chat at lunch or a HN post or a shower thought.

Ya same here these days if I like a book and it impacts me -- it will change me! If not, then not.
