I used to be unable to finish even one book in a year, but now I’m on track to finish fifty by the time 2022 rolls around…
How to Do It:
1. Start small
You cannot become an avid reader over night
Start by trying to read 5-10 pages a day consistently
And each successful week add 5-10 pages on top of that
Before you know it, you will start to read a book every 2-4 weeks
READ MORE: Every dollar you own should be working for you, while you sleep!
2. Read Enjoyable Books
The worst thing you can do is force yourself to read a book you simply have no interest in.
Find books on subjects that fascinate you and are enjoyable
It’s best to have a variety of options:
• Business
• Self-development
• Fiction
• Psychology
3. Read Before Bed
A fantastic habit I have picked up is reading before bed
Getting into this habit has made me look forward to reading books as it is a relaxing and productive habit.
Leave out 30-40m before your bed time to docus on the book and enjoy it.
4. Use any time to your Advantage
Even small 10-20m blocks throughout the day can be great.
If you use Kindle, you can read from any device.
It’s best to read a few pages than:
Mindlessly Scroll social media, wasting precious time that could be better utilized.
5. Stay Consistent
I went from:
– Reading 9 Books in 2019
– Reading 20 Books in 2020
– Reading 22 Books in 2021
– Reading 43 Books so far in 2022
Stay consistent and you will start to read faster, understand better and retain more as you keep on reading.
