4 Reasons Why You Should Start Reading

We're living in a century where everyone is watching something, whether your YouTube podcaster or the funny videos on Facebook or Tik Tok, we rarely read something useful on the net. All we ever read is some nerdy test about what's our inner plant or whatever nonsense out there. Instead of spending time on what really matters, we tend to just "die slowly " in front of our phones or our computers.

Our brains are so sinking into stupidity and mediocrity that we can't even think straight, all our concern is our profile picture on social media or did she respond to my text, isn't it stupid ? Isn't it mediocre ?

Reading is the way to release your brain from the chains of simple thinking.

So, here is 4 reasons why you should start holding a real book and read it's contents :

1-Wide Knowledge :

“As we cannot be universal by knowing everything there is to know about everything, we must know a little about everything, because it is much better to know something about everything than everything about something."
― Blaise Pascal, Pensées

 The problem is with our current technology we can know everything about everything, we can be universal, yet we know nothing about everything, this technology which is supposed to help us arise made us slaves.

Books are the only "technology" who still helps humankind to ascend with our mind.

Knowledge is a power, a very important one for anyone who's looking to be the best version of themselves, especially if this knowledge wide and vast.

2-An ancient VR (Virtual Reality) :

Surely everyone knows what a VR is, but what if I told you that VR had already existed before the 21 century ? Yes it was books.

Novels or their writers had the special talent of describing marvelous realities by their words, at a moment you feel so engaged with the world they tailored that you feel like you belong to it.

Books had the immersive feeling to the reader way before modern technology created these gears to let us live in Virtual Reality.

And books make you the tailor of the realm, your mind decides what's what, on the contrary of the VR where everything is programmed. 

You're just there to witness it and forget about it.

3-Better Language :

Yes ! You might think that's not a sufficient reason to let you start reading, you might say that's what school is made for ! But did anyone ever accomplish something remarkable just by following school's methods ? Better yet, you can have a better language at school but it's at the cost of your patience and happiness.

With books you can read whatever you like and also gain new words and a huge vocabulary without feeling bored or energy drained. 

So yeah! learning and having fun is way better than learning with no fun.

4-It makes you look Cool :

Without the intellectual talk, let's be honest; sitting on a parc or sitting on the subway, holding your interesting and fascinating book makes you look cool and mature.

And surely we'd love to see someone approach us and ask us about the book and how good it is, and you start talking about how the words fits perfectly and how genius the writer is, etc.

See ! you already fantasized about it, that's the power of reading, that's the power of writing, the power of books.

Summary:

Books are the way to expand your mind on new thoughts, new ideas and new beliefs. It is truly the way to illuminate yourself, to live wonderful adventures and discover numberless informations. You definitely have to make out of it a hobby !

So grab a book now and start reading !
