Its been like a month that I’ve felt that I need to create after I’ve consumed so much in the last 2 years. That is why I’m here on Medium, writing my heart out.
Before those 2 years, I always wanted to read but was never consistent.
As cliche as it sounds, we all know that people who read succeed I mean look at the numbers — eighty-five percent of millionaires read at least two books per month.
While 25 percent of the entire American population hasn’t even read a single book all of last year. So what’s the best way to actually get yourself to start reading and at a good pace? So that you can succeed too well you can basically guarantee that you’ll read a book a week by taking advantage of three psychological tricks.
The first is something called implementation intention.
Basically setting an appointment. See the biggest problem when it comes to reading is actually getting started. So many people buy books that they’re interested in and say to themselves oh I’ll definitely read this. And guess what the book just sits there on their shelf never to be touched again. By physically writing down the time and place of when you’ll start reading a book you’re essentially setting up an appointment to do so.
