Transform Your Reading Routine

Make sure to add the 1-Hour Book Reading Sprint to your agenda and share it with someone who would enjoy diving into a book for a focused reading session!

Prepare Your Environment

Before starting your reading sprint, find a quiet and comfortable place free from distractions. Gather everything you need such as your book, a comfortable chair, and a cozy blanket if it's chilly. Make sure to silence your phone or keep it in another room to fully immerse yourself in the world of reading.

Set Your Timer

Use a timer to track your reading sprint. Set it for one hour. This helps build focus and prevents the urge to keep checking the clock. Knowing you have a limited time can sharpen your attention, making the hour both productive and enjoyable.

Choose Your Book or Material

Select a book that you've been meaning to read, or pick a new one that piques your interest. Ensure it's something you genuinely want to engage with, as the aim is to find joy and value in the process, not just get through pages.

Read Actively

As you read, engage with the material by taking notes or highlighting interesting passages. Not only does this improve comprehension, but it makes the experience more interactive and rewarding.

Reflect on What You've Read

After the timer goes off, spend a few minutes reflecting on what you've read. Jot down thoughts or consider discussing the material with a friend. This reflection makes the reading session meaningful and helps retain the information.
