Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing well!
I got a thought that I should write how reading became my new habit. It's been more than 4 months and I have finished 15 books so far. I started with "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki. That book changed my life all around, I was the guy who hated books more than anything till 2019. That's when my friend gave me "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and asked me to finish it. I loved that book after finishing 1st chapter but I took around 15 days to finish it because I was new to reading. After finishing that book I picked 2 new books which I finished in 4 days. You may think what a drastic change I had. Well that's not true that's because I was travelling and in India train travel to my native place takes around 2 days. I finished one while onward journey and finished the second while returning. The book I picked was "Subtle art of not giving a Fuck" and "Everything is fucked" by Mark Manson.
By that time I was confident enough to make reading my regular day to day activity. I made a resolution of finishing 3 books in a month. That's 36 books in a year. YES! you heard it right. 36 books in a year is big deal for a new reader. But pushing myself is what I find interesting. Actually I,m over my target. I finished 15 books in place of 12. I enjoyed reading and made a daily habit after 3 books.
I enjoyed reading Finance, Business and Self-Help books. And I'm more focused on money rather than anything. But I ran out of books and couldn't buy more because COVID lock down. I started borrowing books from my cousin. He had a rather more interesting idea we exchanged books which will make us uncomfortable. He surprised me by giving my first fiction book and I really loved it. The book he gave me was "Kafka On The Shores" by Haruki Murakami. That book had many interesting element which I enjoyed from Intimacy to Mystery etc. I will read more fictions in coming time.
That was my simple journey from being a Book hatter to a Book lover. I didn't struggle at all starting this new habit and enjoying it day by day.
