It has been a very pleasant week. The rains have started and
the trees are full on with greens. And as there isn’t much of work to do except
for planting some veggies and going to shop, I start with few books.
I knew I had a craze for reading books but I never thought I
would be reading it so crazily that I would complete 5 books in a week! Reading
definitely is a good habit, never knew it would change my viewpoints and way of
thinking greatly, more than that it has expanded my box of knowledge.
Got to accept that the habit of reading doesn’t come easily
to anyone, we have to work on it which is quite similar to other good habits. Good
habits are hard to acquire you know! But
it is not an impossible thing to get.
Many people just say absolute ‘no’ to reading, they think
reading is the thing which is related to academics, which isn’t a true thing. One
cannot get the pleasure of reading without actually reading!
Few tips to the ones
who want to start reading book but feel it as boring.
Step1. Pick up a book. If you are nowhere near a book, how are you
supposed to read? Try finding something to read. That can be anything,
including newspapers, magazines, novels etc. you have got to choose the book of
your level. The high level book surely makes to feel bored from the minute you
start it
Step2. Practice your reading habit.
Now that you have found the book which interests you, you can set goal of
reading 10-15 minutes a day. During this reading time you aren’t supposed to do
anything but read. After you finally feel comfortable with the short time, you
can increase it later on.
Step3. Don’t give up. If you
don’t complete your task please don’t be ashamed and give up, remember ‘winners
never quit’ you just have to try again till you achieve it.
Step4. Before starting a book
read the small description. Before starting any book you have got to read
the small description which is given at the back cover of the book. It gives
you a small idea on what the book actually is
Step5. Read the review of the
book before taking up any book. You can get the review of any book from the
people who have actually read the book. It gives you an idea on what the book
actually is. This gives you an opportunity not pick an uninteresting book at
the beginning itself.
Reading doesn’t mean to read only books or magazines, you
can even try out to read from blogs or websites which interests you.
Yeah! That’s it, the 5 simple steps to develop a habit of
reading, wish you a happy reading. Enjoy
