Read all the books I own, but have not yet read.
The drawbacks... 6 months ago

I love reading. Hence, this should not be a ‘difficult’ goal to achieve. However, it is. This list chiefly includes the books that I bought only because they were ‘famous’ or someone spoke pretty highly of them. I realised this as I began sorting out what books I required to read. I am going to avoid these two pitfalls in future because I really don’t like owning a book that lies unread for years.

Moving on towards solving the problem… well, I’ve decided to read these books like textbooks. I HAVE TO “BEGIN” reading them. Once I’m halfway through ANY book, the journey gets exponentially easier and becomes more interesting.

I’m drawing out a reading schedule where I allot the ‘number of pages to be read’ to each day of the week. If I feel that I’ve only got to read 10 pages of the book and no more for the day, it feels easier… it’s like working on a less-liked subject at school.

I hope it works. .



Begin writing fanfiction again
"Begin" 6 months ago

I thought a lot before using the word ‘begin’. Just writing a chapter and publishing it won’t mean that I have begun writing fanfiction again. Unless I write something DAILY, I’m not going to be convinced about having ‘done’ this goal. Hence, I’m aiming at writing fanfiction ‘daily’ for two weeks beginning today. Whenever I’m able to write for 14 days consecutively, I’m going to mark this as ‘done’.
