This is going to be quite the mediocre blog post today, but is still something that I want to talk about. Due to the rapid digital growth of smartphones, society has drastically been torn away from reading books: including fiction and non fiction books. Take my mother for instance, when she was younger she Would constantly be reading books as she loved to do it. Now, she is more entertained by scrolling through Facebook than anything else.
I however, love to read books: especially productivity books as you may know. This didn’t occur until about 2 years ago when I made a New Years resolution to read books. A very basic resolution , but it was very effective. For the next two years, I would consecutively buy books on amazon: from game of thrones to The power of habit. Nothing could grab me like a book.
Since I have embarked on the road of a minimalist, I use my kindle to purchase new books,not only are they cheaper, but they are also easier to store.
So, sometimes put the phone down and pick up a book. You will be amazed what you can learn.
