If you like to buy books, but rarely read through them, it's time to change your approach a little bit of reading.
1. Create ideal conditions for reading
To begin, try to get rid of all distractions. Clean away from her phone and TV remote. If you want to read before going to bed, make sure that next to the bed stands a table lamp and that it is convenient to include. Now that you have nothing to distract from the reading, pick up a book, it will be much easier.
2. Do not leave home without a book
Per day accumulates a lot of free minutes that can be spent on reading. For example, when you are traveling on public transport or waiting in line. Instead of sitting at this time in your phone, open the book better. Of course, you can read on your phone, but so much more likely to be distracted by something else.
So always carry a book. If the paper is taking up too much space, bring your email or listen to audiobooks.
3. Do not force yourself to finish the book, you do not like
Many tend to think that it is necessary to finish the book before the end, otherwise you may seem a wimp, or smart enough to miss something culturally significant. But this is all nonsense.
Reading a book in this regard is no different from watching a movie or TV series. After all, if you do not like the show, you throw it to look and turn something else. So it is with books, if you do not like one, close it and take another.
Reading should bring joy, not to seem a heavy burden. If you are reading with pleasure, and then read more.
4. Do not read more than three books at a time
Someone could read one book for a couple of days, while others like to read several books at once and switch from one to another as indefinitely. But if you read too many books at the same time, the reading will start to seem boring duty, and keep track of the plot twists in each book will be harder and harder.
Do not handle more than three books at once. Try to combine the artistic and non-fiction. And promise yourself, that will not take over the new book, not yet finished, or not throw one of the initiated.
5. Discuss books
This will help warm up his own interest in reading and to expand your horizons a book. In addition, discussions with others books motivates and creates a certain sense of responsibility. We begin to think: "If I did not finish reading this book, I can not say anything about it, when someone asks my opinion." This is especially true of products recommended by friends, or books that you have started to read at the same time with someone.
6. Always complete one cycle of reading
Opening the book, decide for yourself how much you read, and not be interrupted until the finish. Such a read cycle may last 20 minutes, include a chapter or a number of pages. The main thing - do not be distracted during reading. It is possible that you are carried away and read even more than planned.
