Emily's "Just Try to Read Every Day" Challenge

[Ek]

Hi all!

Rather than set a numeric goal of books per year, it's more motivating for me to establish a more granular habit: reading every day.

I've fallen out of practice, succumbing frequently to distractions, but I would like to make a point of picking up a book and making daily headway (even if it's just a page).

I'll probably do a weekly update with what went down during the past seven days.

Thanks for your support!

I think making a goal of time, rather than books, is great! I read rather quickly, but if I only read 5 minutes a day, I'd read less than if I read slowly, but read for an hour.

Over time, you pick up speed. The more you practice- by reading- the faster you get. You'll notice it over the years.

Have fun reading, and don't be afraid to read a lot of crap and garbage. I learned how to read from comic books.

Not that comic books are crap- I love them. I buy them for my kids.

Sounds like an excellent plan! I look forward to your updates!

Good luck! I love that approach!
