Create a reading list I would definitely suggest you start out by creating a list of books that you would like to read. For example, you could create a list of novels you’ve always wanted to read but never had the chance
Set a goal A good idea to motivate yourself to read more is to set a goal. For example, you could set a goal to read a certain number of books this year or a certain number of pages each day and then work on reaching that goal.
Schedule a time for reading To make sure that you will read every day, you need to schedule reading into your day. You could read first thing in the morning, during your commute, before going to sleep or even during lunch.
Find a good place to read Something that will help you read more is finding a good place to read. This should preferably be somewhere quiet, without any distractions.
Eliminate distraction Make sure to eliminate any distractions that might be interfering with your reading — turn off the TV and put your smartphone on silent.
Read actively While passive reading is better than no reading at all, I would highly suggest you try an active approach to reading. When I say “read actively”, I mean think about what you are reading, highlight passages that you think are important or interesting
Keep a reading journal I highly recommend keeping a reading journal where you can write down quotes that you like, record what books you have read, jot down any thoughts related to the book as well as any comment
Carry a book everywhere you go Always carry some reading material with you, either in the form of a physical book, or an ebook on your smartphone or ebook reader. That way you’re able to read whenever you get a chance.
