Another strategy that I've found works for is "sneak reading". I try and get reading in whenever and wherever I can. This includes on the bus, on my breaks, while I'm stirring soup on the stove, etc. I've even taken to trying to read as much of the New York Times at my cashier job as I can without getting caught by my mangers. It's a harmless bit of rebellion. I think this especially works for me because, as a kid I would be the one hiding my novel under my desk during math class or reading with a flashlight well after bedtime.

I think it's easy to fall into a habit of procrastination when you are trying to better yourself. People interested in self-improvement tend towards perfectionism, I think. If you feel like something is only worth doing if you do it perfectly, then you may never feel like starting at all. I know that's how I often end up wasting time on worthless sites when on a deeper level reading makes me much happier.

For me, as a struggling perfectionist, your comment resonated with me. Now, I will try to think habits as something "worthwhile" instead of something I have to do perfectly.

@andresarroyo18094 жыл бұрын
Emanuel Gonzalez Recommend reading birth of numbers (history of mathematics book), basic mathematics by serge lang (kinda hard because there is many proofs to solve in it), spivaks calculus, apostels calc II and III. Most of mathematics will be just finding articles to read online; surprisingly, many words are very technical and require precise definitions and non-vagueness. I think this non-ambiguity of language helped me with most college textbooks in recent months. Don’t recommend doing it, only if you have a lot of time to kill and mental pain to accept into your life for no reason. Although when starting to get the hang of it, it starts to feel real nice. Most of math is solving problems for real “true understanding”. The hard part is comprehending the reading if never introduced to definition/theorem/proof paradigm.

What I have done to myself is creating a reading challenge. :) On my bedroom door I have taped a list of books like "A play", "A non-fiction book", "a romance story", "a book with knights", "Science Fiction" and so on. This is not just as a challenge, but also to get into the habit of reading broadly, not just limit myself. Because I know readers who does this as well: They are ONLY reading fantasy, but not Shakespeare or even books on mythology. Or they are ONLY reading murder mysteries and turn their noses up at everything else. So with this reading challenge, not only have I read a wider variety of books, I have also discovered gems in genres I didn't think was possible and I have grown curious over different topics! Like after reading a biography on David Lynch, I started to read up on Surrealism, so I read the surrealist manifesto and a book on surrealism in art. After that, I got interested in other artforms like Expressionism, Romanticism, impressionism and Dada. :) I also grew interested in the history of art, which evolved into an interest in history in general. And so on and so forth...

Dick, and Harlan Ellison all have amazing short stories. Checkhov made me fall in love with short stories before him I seemed to steer away from those types of collections but now I love them and they’re some of my favorite type of reading.

Good advice. I read a lot, and what made me read as much as I do is the quality of the books rather than the amount of time I read each day. My brother was a prolific reader, and he recommended his 2 favorite books. The day I started to read the first one, I couldn't stop because it was so good. I ultimately finished the 1200 page book in 5 days. I had never read a book for fun before that. It was always school books that I would rarely even end. Now, a year later, I read all the time (too much, even) just because my brother has given me the love of reading.

I barely read anymore, and if I do it's only non-fiction, but I've been in a deep depression last couple years where I hardly ever feel joy or positive emotions anymore... but then just now, as I was reading suddeny...I felt SOMETHING, for a brief moment. For or a moment, I felt a spark of FEELING..and I all of a sudden got reminded of how it felt to enjoy a fiction book when I was younger. I had totally forgotten that I actually used to LOVE reading stories when I was young. I suddenly remembered how I had read all the 'Series of Unfortunate Events' books and how I would get absorbed and engrossed in the story. I just remembered that there is something special to be experienced from reading... That you can still feel joy from and immersion from books, I had forgotten that was possible.

I hate the feeling I get when I read too much in a novel and lose my sense of self and get too involved in the story in the case of fiction. I want to maintain every thought in my own life, and habits, and routines and care with other people, and just nibble away at books so that that doesn’t happen. That’s why I like writing better than reading. Writing is my own creative process and reading is consuming the thought processes and creative processes of others. I don't feel this near as much with non-fiction, since there are no characters to identify with. I can never read just 1 book at a time, or on the same topic at a time. I just don't have that habit. So maybe I'm already taking Bradberry's advice without knowing it? I even skip around in the same book.
