Q1. Set aside 30 minutes purely for reading a book at the end of the day and turn this into a daily routine.
Don't play with your cellphone at this time — reading texts, replying to emails or looking at cats on the
Internet will not bring prolonged relaxation or provide the true escapism that a book can offer. A good
book can be hard to put down.
Q2. Reading doesn't have to be a solitary experience. It's therapeutic for the other person to listen. Some
elementary schools welcome parents for 1 — 1 reading sessions with pupils. Some libraries want
volunteers for reading sessions. Same goes for old peoples' homes. Also a natural consequence of reading
to someone else is discussion about the book afterwards. Shared experiences are good experiences.
Q3. When you read, you have to keep in mind the plot and the events happened previously to keep with the
flow. When you read a long novel, you must remember how the story of the novel began, how it unfolded
and all the different events happened so far. Keeping all this in mind and reading with full concentration
requires huge mental energy.
Q4. If your career is wildlife photography, reading various books about photography, wildlife, safaris,
national geographic magazines and others will help you develop your skills in photography and wildlife.
Reading extensively will help you understand small details about your field. You will avoid making the
mistakes done by others in this field. Reading will help you sharpen your skills and achieve this
competitive edge in your career.
Q5. This benefit of reading might not be very evident, but it is nevertheless very true. This can be
explained in the following way. When you read, your mind makes a note of the various writing techniques
used by the author. When you start writing, your brain automatically uses all these notes. You have ample
source material in your brain which is used to prepare your own content.
Q6. Whenever you read a novel, you don’t just read it passively. You have to get involved in the book and
work on it actively. The description of the people is given, but you have to imagine that description. As a
result when you read thousands of lines present in a book, your creativity is bound to increase and your
imagining power increases because of reading.
Q7. Reading is a hobby that will keep your mind busy and improve your concentration and focus. The
direct impact is the removal of all the negative thoughts in your mind. Since most of the negativity is
removed, you start concentrating on positive things in your life. Also, you are distracted from the daily
stressful activities during the entire time you are reading.
