How to read a book every month
It made me
 "If you enjoy reading, you have to make this one of your goals."
How I did it: I got away from reading due to the hustle and bustle of life. For a year now, I've been reading at least one book a month, but usually more. I take time out of my busy day for myself, even if it's just half an hour to sit & read. I love the escape it provides me and the great stories I've been able to experience.

How I did it: Before I began attempting this goal I could never manage to read a book all the way through due to having a really bad attention span. I am 23 years old and have been a huge fan of books and reading all of my life; however over the past five or six years, I have been 'unable' to read a story from start to finish as I would get so easily distracted and after a while the simple task of reading would begin to feel more like a chore than a p… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I joined a reading circle and use that as my motivation to finish the books. Each month's discussion opens up the book to new interpretations that I might have missed. Read how I did it…

Ahh… So it took me two months to read this book.
It’s not that it takes me that long to read it, but I get distracted and blah blah blah.
Plus… this book wasn’t very interesting until a little bit into the book.
I only recommend this to die hard Stephenie Meyer fans… which I’m pretty sure there are a lot out there.

I love reading but seldom make the time for it. I’d like to commit to reading at least one book a month for the next 12 months. Right now I’m reading “The Power of Now” by Eckhardt Tolle. I’d like to have to finish by the end of the this month (June).
