-Chinese proverb

    If you have ever tasted the sweetness of book reading, you will never stop it. The moment we say we need to read books to reach success in life, it doesn't mean that we can read any book that we see. We should choose the books that are relevant to our field, read it and implement the learnings in our life. It will create miracles in our life. Jim Rohn says "Reading is essential to those who seek to rise above the ordinary".



    Why should we inculcate book reading habit?

1. Research says the book reading habit increases our life's expectancy. We need to develop the habit of finding a silent place and reading daily for 5 minutes with focus, to start with. We need to make the book reading our best entertainment in our life. We should enjoy it.

2. Research says that the book reading habit reduces our stress more than listening to music or walking.

      Most of us stopped reading books the moment we completed our formal eduction. To develop our intellect, continuous learning is very essential. For that books are a great treasure. If we diversify our book reading habit across genres, then we can shine in every walks of our life. We all know knowledge is power. Books are the great source of knowledge.        

    So, what are you waiting for? Know your style of reading. Grab a book/subscribe to audio books/at-least start with watching book summaries  gain the wisdom and lead a great life.
