A few months ago, the thought of finding time to leisure read seemed laughable. Sure, I've finished books that were mandatory for college courses, but reading for pleasure was an alien concept. Between my to-do list, my deadlines, and my complete lack of "me time" — picking up a book and reading for fun felt impossible. 数月前,若我想找时间进行休闲阅读似乎有点不切实际。是的,笔者已经读完所有大学课程的必读书籍了,但是为了寻找快乐而阅读却是一个异常新鲜的想法。在我的待办事项清单里,在最后期限里,以及我最缺少属于“自我时间”的一项便是——找本书来读读,寻找其中的乐趣,这几乎是不可能实现的事情。 And yet, I know that tons of super successful people find time in their schedules to read (as evidenced by lists like this one and this one). So, there must be ways that people — even the ones with the longest to-do lists — are doing it. 不过,笔者知道很多成功人士都在待办行程中找时间阅读(这在各种各样的清单已有证明了)。所以,对于这些成功人士来说,即使他们的待办事项清单非常长,肯定能够找到方法腾出时间阅读,而且他们也确实正在做这件事。 After spending hours and hours trying different strategies, I'm excited to share that I've completed 11 books over the past three months — and am currently reading a 12th. I'm even more excited to share the hacks that have helped me make reading for pleasure a reality. |
