Resolve to Read!

Each new year brings on new promises and new commitments. Many of those promises feel forced and contrived to join the said "band-wagon" and make resolutions. Yet, how many of those resolutions involve reading? If you really ponder that notion, you will come to the conclusion that most if not all involve reading. So...why not just Resolve to Read even more in 2016?

The average person reads an estimate of 1000 words a day. We encounter words in a variety of modes on a daily basis. From text on television to the text messages we send and receive on our phones, everyday we encounter words. In fact, we are constantly striving to become a literate nation; consequently, we lack a literate focus. Resolving to Read in 2016 with a literate focus can actually enable you to address many of the resolutions that you may have possibly set forth for the New Year. In order to truly accomplish the goals that you have established, work hard to grasp a greater understanding of the goal by learning as much information that you can about it. In essence, start with the end in mind and allow your reading life to provide you with the necessary steps to accomplish your goals!
