Many people consider reading books a waste of time. It is just so easy to switch on the television, put the brain into neutral and accept everything that is shown to you. Some even boast that they have not read a single book since they have left school. That is definitely something that I would not be proud to admit.
Reading books is one of the greatest sources of information that is available to us.
Just think about this. A person can write a book and explain, in a couple of hundred words, what it took them all their life to learn. By reading their book, you can learn what they did in just a couple of hours. How powerful is that?
Or you can attend information seminars or view knowledge videos or watch relevant DVD presentations.
There is so much knowledge in the world now. It is increasing exponentially. Why not take advantage of that? Don't deny yourself.
If you feed your mind as often as you fed your stomach, can you imagine how much knowledge you would accumulate? Knowledge is power. There are lashings of knowledge available on every subject under the sun. Read some good books. Get the power. Enrich yourself. Grow as a person.
