Read a damn book
Make Myself Read Again (MMRA)
I enjoy using services like Audible.com but I need to stop
- Not because of the cost. As subscription services go there is value in the $15 a month is charged
- Not because there is the potential for an item in my library to go missing since I do not own these audiobooks.
I need to stop using the service so I can practice the art of long-form reading.
I read every day but it is relegated to social media sites, comment sections, or endless conversions between multiple chatting applications.
As I get older I can see my attention span decreasing more every day. I need to increase the amount of time I read so I can exercise my mind.
So I am placing a goal on myself to read some of the books I purchased int he past couple of years and finish reading them. As with many things I have always started reading a book (be it in kindle or the paper form) but it tends to last 100 pages and then I am off to another distracting time waster.
