8 ways to make reading a regular habit

1. Picking a Regular Time to Read -

Always schedule a reading time for your field of interest it can be hourly in every as every day passes by you will dedicate an hour to read something that relate to your niche or field of interest.

Ideally some time that you have available every day of the week. This will be your hour, your 30-minutes, your little reading break.

2. Reading Every Day -

“Every day or not at all.” This is something that is said a lot in regards to habit building. The reason for this is that just one day off can get you into old habits again and out of the roll you’ve been on.

Promise your self not to miss any day without reading your book for better understanding of your field.

3. Starting with Great Books -

If you are looking at a question like this you likely have a reading list. Start off with the best book on that list, the one that excites you the most, so you get that extra bit of motivation to start this habit.

Go to a book shop and purchase a great book that is in your mind which you will love to read without getting tired because you have  already develop an interest in that book.

4. Keeping it Effortless -

The amount you read should be something that you can do even on a busy or bad day. There is no reason to go overboard right away. You can always increase the time later.

Make reading simple without stress if you are a bit stressed or tired you can read only a chapter and latter you can continue with your reading so that you can avoid being stressed out and lost of interest, make reading look effortless for easier assimilation.

5. Having a Set Place to Read -

Ideally a comfortable chair or couch, but a place where you do not sit for other reasons. If you do not have one then at least turn your chair around. This small trick will link reading to a physical sensation that makes it much easier to get started.

Set a specific place were you can read without being disturbed by people around you, it could be a library or a quiet place such as the relaxing point in your house, this can be done regularly.

6. Start Today -

Do not wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow is a long, long, long way off. So you are better of if you can stop procrastinating and start your reading routing today so that it can develop to becoming a regular habit.

7. Do not fret about a missed Day -

It is not about how consistent you are with it but how many hits you get in in a certain timeframe. If you read 300 days out of the year with irregular breaks and no long chain, it will still be better than a single 100 day chain of reading days.

8. Read for You -

Read because you enjoy it, because you love to learn or simply because it is a good habit to pick up for your life.
Read for your own develop and growth as a student.
