Reading is one of the most important ways of knowing the word around us. Reading influences us in the following ways:
- Reading helps us expand our mind
- Reading help us know who we are, what is important to us, and it helps us understand the world around us.
- Importantly, it creates a conversation between the writer and the writer.
- Reading helps us learn from the past, the present, and predict the future (if we can really predict what will happen).
- Reading helps us learn from the people that have done what we are about to get into.
- Reading fires up our brain. Maybe you have heard this saying before: “ If you don’t use it, you will lose it.” The more you read, the more you know-if you apply what you know. If you haven’t practice what you learned, there is no way to know you have really learned it.
- Reading increases our self-confidence
- Reading increases our writing skills, speaking, and interpersonal skills.
- READERS ARE LEADERS. NOT ALL LEADERS ARE READERS
- Reading is good. Keep reading! – E.B. Osadiaye
