Read Books and Learn about the World without Wasting Time on Quarantine Day

The word book is a scary word to many of us. If reading a book is a hobby or a habit, how is it? In general, we refer to those who read or love to read many books as Antel. That's why we think it is safe to be 100 hands away from the book, otherwise people will say it is gut!

Reading books should not always depend only on ‘text books’, books should also be read outside of text books.

Well known author Vera Nazirian said,

"Whenever you are reading a good book, somewhere in the world a door opens to allow in more light."

This shows how important it is to read books. Even after knowing so much, we like to keep the book confined to paper. He does not free the knowledge from the folds of the book and give us the opportunity to spread our meditation and knowledge. So today I will write, how to make ‘reading books’ a habit. And ‘books’ can be considered as a major element of leisure time.

1. Interested in:
   First of all, if you have been a big hater of books in the past, and now you want to forget hatred and make friends, then first you have to find out what you are interested in. For example, many people like to read Bengali, many people like geography. Some like chemistry, some like physics. So when you want to make it a habit to read books outside of text books, you must focus on interest.
   Again, there are many who have never been interested in reading a subject. They are not afraid either, start with a famous book by Rabindranath or Sunil Bandopadhyay's book 'Prothom Alo'. You can start with the great habit of reading your book with ‘Anna Karenina’ by Leo Tolstoy or ‘Hamlet’ by Shakespeare!

1. Carry a colored pen:
   Keep a colored pen with you while reading the book. Underline with red, blue or green ink pen the lines that you like or feel important while reading. Even after reading the book, you will remember the colored ink lines for a long time. And if the book belongs to someone other than yourself, write down the lines of your choice somewhere.

Reading good books means talking to the best people of the last century!

1. Hold continuity:
   The habit of reading books does not happen in a day or two. Someone has nurtured this habit since childhood; Someone has grown up to love a book after reading one or two good books after growing up and nurtured it as a habit. But no matter how good the habit is, you need to keep it consistent. At least try to read a good book every month. A person develops a beautiful personality by reading good books. The famous American essayist Waldo Emerson says,
   "If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads."
