Reading, a drug addiction without harm to self or others. In an increasingly noisy world, reading gives the blessed gift of silence.

Antozent- they are selling around 250 self help books for the price of one (you’re welcome)

"Vocabulary is not just a set of terms but a pallet, with which we paint the canvas of our conversations." You NAILED it 🔥🔥

Love the video dude. I am absolutely in love with reading. I wish more of my friends would pick up a book. Theyre too busy deep frying their brain with tik tok

I've been reading scientific books and romans for quite a while. I have a small collection for now, but it's a drug! I always smell the pages of the fresh new books. When I read romans, I imagine scenes like watching a movie, and sometimes I even smell what I read. The knowledge sticks and the way they are presented in books are like a map guiding yourself in learning. It also helped approach a reader with whom I share quite the taste of books.
PS. I prefer hardcover rather than paperback, and I dislike Kindle because I like collecting books and holding them when they're brand new, even if it's expensive.

I started to see some of these benefits reading a novel called the beginning after the end. It’s pretty awesome to feel the difference reading makes

I might have missed it but you didn't mention how reading can help us find out things about ourselves we didn't know, or how it can help us to understand others by exposing us to different kinds of thinking. This can help us to empathize with those we might otherwise not have.

In my personal opinion, whenever I get my hands on a book that speaks to my fascination and read though the pages, I visualize a wide variety of characters, scenes, appearances and etc… to attain a deeper comprehension by means of refining my way of thinking, logical reasoning, communication skills as well as my lexical repertoire, vocabulary. To conclude, by incorporating these 21 mind-blowing benefits, it’ll help me transform into a well-educated, knowledgeable, creative and wise man with good common sense as I always dreamt of becoming that higher and more supreme self of mine.

Number 14 is definitely needed in today's society. When I was younger I was in LD classes my reading ability was years behind. About 20 years ago I was in an accident that put me in a wheelchair for many months. I had watched so much TV I got sick of it and decided to read a book instead. Soon I fell in love with something I hated for so long, (reading), now I read books that are for intellectuals, like The Iliad or Dostoevsky or Pushkin, Nietzsche but I also like simple but powerful books like The Little Prince. I have a library of books. 20 so far not much but they are books I love.

YouTube algorithm is broken, your videos are so useful and top quality, top notch, I could say, and yet you have so few subscribers, it's a big shame, but don't give up, keep up the quality work, and maybe that one day, The Mighty YouTube Algorithm, will become favorable to you.

I loved reading as a kid. As an adult, my reading went way down because of social media and high school made me hate reading ☹️ I'm so happy that I'm reading again 🙂 it's really made my life happier. 📚

[thilakasirispathiranage]

Thank you for the tips. I increased sense of my purpose, but I'm in a real crunch for time.
