Am I the only one who gets exited about a new book, get halfway through it, then pick up a new book before finishing the last?
I enjoy many different books mostly self-help books. However once I read a great chapter like (information that I am ready to put into practice) thats when I put the book aside. Time goes by before I pick it up and now I am all excited about a new book and need to start reading it immediately!
This then leads to me having at least 4-5 books half read and ten more just waiting to be opened.
it was so much easier to read in school, I want too keep that same energy and complete the rest of my books I set out to finish before the end of the year .
How can I do this because I really can’t stop buying books but I want to finish them all. what are good strategies?
Do self help books really need to be read from front to back? It’s not like dipping out in the middle of a narrative. Self help books tend to only have a few paragraphs of info stretched out into an entire book anyways.
Well reading half a self help book is still a win! Maybe reading different types of books, some history novels I cannot wait to finish while being a little sad I’m done with it That feeling doesn’t come with self help books
I think you’re doing fine - no need to change anything! What is more cozy than piles of books on the bed. Piles of more books in the livingroom. Going from one book to another is a fabulous way to read. Read what you want, at the moment you want it. Put it down and pick up something else if you get bored.
