How to Make a Good Habit of Reading? email this discussion to a friend?

Yesterday, I posted a discussiobn about the importance of reading and received lots of responses. Thank you all.

As the ideas of most responses, reading is important because information consumed via a book is different from the one online. Book consumption is systematical and complete. The online consumption is search-driven, interruptable and overall attention-deprived. Yes, reading is still a necessary part of our daily life.

So, my question are:

Do you spend much time on reading books per week? How to make a good habit of reading books? Thank you sharing your experience here!

I love to read, I always have since childhood and I’ve had my nose in a book regularly as far as I can remember. To me books are a healthy escape from life, it is great to leave my world for a while and enter somebody else’s. I feel sad when I come to the end of a really good book... happy

When I was in college I used to read books until the wee hours in the morning. Over the last couple I have read maybe 4 or 5 books only, the rest are just tabloids and daily newspapers. Cheers!

I am a post-graduate in a China college.I think reading is a necessary thing for our life,not only books in academic,but also books better for our life.As a student,i always read many books in the evening.I think it is the best for reading.After you have done your work whole day,sitting there and reading some book,it can make you easy.

Though i know that reading is a good habit for us i,but i am not a good reader,because i donot like to read.And i almost donot spend anytime on reading books.I am so lazy,i think.Because i always feel tired once i read book,and i want to sleep when reading books.

I read magazines and newspaper daily. Despite the fact that we can access the net anytime for everything, i still make it a point to read. I even encourage my kids to read at home and they are developing habit. My youngest son's teacher informed us that during break time instead of playing my son read his favorite book and shared what he read to his classmates. I am happy to hear this from my kid's teacher.

Friends who read good books will definitely help in this case. Be in touch with professors, students and people who read a lot. Reading helps solves problem many times. With reading our view to look at the world changes. You can join communities or groups on social network which discuss about good books. And to be interested in reading, don't stick to single type of book. Like if you read dan brown do read spiritual type of books later. Then switch to mystery, romantic and so on. This is to avoid getting boredom while reading.

Do read about Micheal sheele so that you can also improve reading speed. This way you'll able to read more books.

Hi there getbrowser!
I would say I'm one of the few people who still love books despite of the emerging influence of online resources. I am actually addicted to reading. I love magazines and have my collection. I also collect books from a great author, Ed Lapiz. I prefer those books which are inspiring and can help me in one way or another to live life to the fullest. I am more into short stories. I read before sleeping probably 2 hours before bedtime. I also read books during my spare time and even during watching television. It really pays to read.
