Start a Reading Habit

A reading habit can be one of the most rewarding things you can do for yourself. Not only can it provide enjoyment and knowledge, but developing a reading habit can also have a positive impact on your career, marriage, and more.

If you’re looking to start a reading habit, here are seven simple tips to help you get started:

  1. Start small. Don’t try to tackle War and Peace on your first day. Instead, start with a shorter book or even just a few pages of reading each day.
  2. Set aside time each day for reading. Whether it’s 20 minutes before bed or on your lunch break, find a time that works for you and stick to it. Starting with just five minutes a day is better than nothing.
  3. Find a comfortable place to read. Make sure you have a comfortable chair, good lighting, and minimal distractions so you can focus on your reading.
  4. Try audiobooks. Whether you think you don’t like to read, or want something to consume while you drive your car, audiobooks add another way to consume the written word.
  5. Get an e-reader. An e-reader can make it easy to carry around a large number of books with you, so you’re never without something to read.
  6. Start with a topic you already enjoy.
  7. Be patient. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t see results immediately. It takes time to develop a reading habit, so be patient and keep at it.

With these seven simple tips, you can develop a reading habit that will provide enjoyment, knowledge, and many other benefits. So what are you waiting for? Start reading today!
