Ask Yourself Why You Want to Read More

This will help you build a good reading habit that won't be affected by what other people have done.

Get into the habit of reading

The desire to "read more" is a good start, but it's not enough to make it a habit. Let me be clear: wanting to read more is not a goal; it's a desire, and not a very good one.

Set yourself a daily reading goal

This tip works better than making a plan to read a certain number of books each month, which you will probably not meet.

Cut out all distractions

Set up a place to read where you won't be interrupted. It's always easier to shift your attention to something else.

Start with short books

It's harder to get into the habit of reading because most books are so long. I'm sure we all have that book we started but never finished.

Enjoy the process

Reading is not a duty, and it shouldn't be turned into one. Reading for fun is one of the main reasons why people do it.

Follow your interest

You don't have to read about business, homo sapiens, creative fiction, or self-help if you don't care about these things. Emotions are tied to interests, and interests are tied to the present moment.
