Why it matters
Reading regularly is one of the simplest ways to learn, relax and see the world differently. The difference between reading a book a year and a book a month is usually a few pages a day.
Research on habit formation suggests that attaching a new habit to an existing routine, like your commute or bedtime, makes it easier to repeat. Reading fits neatly into these gaps.
There is no right kind of reading. Fiction, non-fiction, audiobooks: pick what you enjoy. Enjoyment keeps a habit alive far better than duty.
