If you want to be a leader, you must get a good book and start a new habit of daily reading!
If you want to be a leader, you must get a good book and start a new habit of daily reading!
All readers are not leaders, but all leaders are readers.
If you read any biography of a successful person or leader, you will almost always find that they talked about the books that they read. Some by candlelight, some by kerosene lamps, fireplaces, flashlights, or daylight.
It is without a doubt that one of the keys to their success is most definitely reading.
We suggest reading a good book at least 15 minutes a day.
Do you realize if you read 15 minutes a day for 1 year, that is 5475 minutes.
Break that down and that is 91 hours or almost 4 days of your life.
What if you spend 30 minutes reading a day?
That would be 10,950 minutes in one year, which is equivalent to 182 hours, or almost 8 days.
If the average person watches 8 hours a day, and decides to read instead, that would be 121.66 days in a year or 17.38 weeks in one year.
Think about that the next time you grab the remote!
Imagine if you spent that much time reading the right books to change your thinking as the successful leaders have done!
We disconnected our TV to do some remodeling in January 2007 and we still have not connected it.
The remodeling took longer than we thought it would, and we found out that we could actually live without it.
We turned our TV time into cd and/or reading time and have seen a great improvement in our personal and spiritual growth. I hope after reading this you will decide to spend more time reading.
