Does the thought of reading seem boring to you? Are you
someone who’d rather play Angry Birds or watch T.V. rather than opening a book
in your free time? Then, read along to know why you should read and why reading
can actually be a fun activity.
Books teach you things that a degree won’t: It’s true. A
degree might help you get a job but it will never elevate you on the path of
knowledge. Books expand your thinking and help you form opinions about anything
under the sun.

Reading does not have to be all serious: The above statement
does not mean that you have to sit down next with a fat book on world history or
deep-rooted psychology. While, these may be great reads if you have the
inclination for them, start with reading whatever interests or fascinates you.
It could even be comic strips. The moot point is to build up the interest.
 |
Books help creativity and imagination: Reading can transport
you to a different place with its vivid descriptions and illustrations. It may
not be possible to travel the world, but a book can help you discover the world
right here, in the confines of your cozy home.
 |
Reading can bring in those extra marks: If you are the kind
to weigh reading with marks procured in exams, still it is a good bet to read
outside your text books. Extra reading will help to build your vocabulary and
general knowledge that can be showcased in your language papers to give you
that extra edge.
 |
Debates, elocution and essays will no longer be scary: A
well-read person, or even a person who is not averse to reading books will
never shy away from facing the public speaking. Reading would have opened up so
many closed doors to information that you automatically develop the acumen to talk
on any given topic.
