When was the last time you read a book? Do you feel guilty because you are letting go of your reading habit although you dearly love reading?
This World Book Day (celebrated every year on April 23), let us remind you why books are awesome.
Regain your focus
When you get tired of reading the dull stuff for school or work, reading for pleasure will totally refresh your mind and help you regain focus.
Improves communication skills
Apart from building your vocabulary, reading helps to improve your verbal communication as well. When you have to give a presentation or appear in an interview, you will be secretly thanking all those books you read.
Be smarter
Reading will give you knowledge about a lot of things and is much cheaper than taking a course. You are sure to appear smarter in front of peers if you know about various topics. It’s been proved that reading also improves memory.
Destress and be entertained
A sure shot way of getting rid of stress and be entertained at the same time, reading is awesome by the sheer variety it offers. Moreover, you will never hear a parent complain that you read too much.
Look attractive
Whether you’re a boy or a girl, having a book in your hand definitely makes you more attractive.
Open up your mind
When you read about things beyond the scope of your daily life, you realise that there is so much more out there. And if you enjoy fiction, there is nothing stopping your creativity and imagination.
