Absolutely agree with this advice. I read 7 books last year and set a challenge to read 30 this year. So far I've already read 10 so I'm way ahead of last year and my challenge goal.

For me I treat it as a regular part of my schedule. Before I go to bed I'll read a few pages instead of checking my phone. First thing I do in the morning is read too. It eventually becomes natural.

That's an awesome challenge, and you're progressing well! Congrats! I'm curious how many you will end up with by the end of this year!

Hehe me to. I hope I can keep up with it.

I will say, if it wasn't for audio books I'd be super behind. Be able to listen to a book while I walk the dog, commute, etc... has been helpful.
