Things You'll Need:
- A book
-
Step 1
"Read" your books in the car. Instead of reading traditional books, consider audio books. ou can listen to them in the car, so they're ideal for people with a long commute to work.
-
Step 2
Read to your kids. Many books, like the Harry Potter series, are entertaining for both kids and adults. Consider reading to your kids so you can mix your reading time with family time.
-
Step 3
Go to bed later. Spend fifteen minutes before bed reading a chapter or two of your favorite book. You may lose a little bit of sleep, but you'll get a chance to do some extra reading.
-
Step 4
Multi-task your reading. Carry a book with you so you can read whenever there's an opportunity, such as in the doctor's waiting room or while the kids are at soccer practice.
-
Step 5
Turn off the TV. Most people watch hours and hours of TV each week. Turn off a sitcom to get thirty minutes of commercial-free reading.
-
Step 6
Read during lunch. If you normally eat lunch at your desk, use that time to read, too. If you get sixty minutes for lunch, you've just found an extra hour of reading time every day.
