Finding More Time to Read |
 |
|
Don't you just envy people who always keep up with
their reading? You may be surprised to know that a
quick reading speed is not the only way to get
caught up. It's those who devote ENOUGH TIME to
their reading that are not haunted by their "to read
stack."
That makes sense you say, BUT you're feeling
time- starved? Review these common-sense suggestions
and see which ones you already do and which ones
just might work for you:
- ALWAYS carry hand-selected articles (or
other material) with you where ever you go -
in your car, in your day planner, in your
briefcase, etc. You never know when you'll have
a free few minutes.
- Watch less (or no) TV! If you watch
an hour or more of television a day (which many
Americans do), just think how much reading you
could get done if you swapped TV time with
reading a few days a week.
- Unsubscribe to personally invaluable
materials so you don't waste your reading
time on useless material. To refresh your
memory, look at our previous tip
Get the Best and SKIP the Rest!
- Plan it! Make an appointment with
yourself, for example, during work hours (this
may mean moving to a conference room to get
peace and quiet), on weekends (you can read
while kids are watching cartoons) or during your
commute (if you have one where you're not
driving!)
- Read at your peak time(s) of day -
your most mentally awake and alert times. If you
are a morning person, make some time then. If
you are a night owl, carve out time after dark.
- Upgrade your reading skills so
however much time you do spend, you get a lot
accomplished! Consider taking our on-line course
called "Speed Reading: Read More in Less Time",
available to anyone starting October 4 at no
charge through
Barnes and Noble On-Line University.
