One of my biggest achievements of 2023 was developing the reading tempo I had back in college – it may seem trivial but it is a big deal for me. I started with a very humble goal of reading 10 books in 2023 and I was able to achieve it by November. Here’s the list of books I read .
To achieve this goal I had to:
- Remove social media apps from my phone.
- Replace doom-scrolling with reading ebooks on my phone/kindle.
- Create a habit tracker on TickTick because gamification works.
- Read at least 5 pages before sleeping – this really helped when I had busy days.
The goal for 2024 is 15 books with varying genres. I have read enough Sci-Fi and Fantasy last year so it is time to put them on the back burner. My aim is to read at least 2 classics along with some non-fiction.
