Experiment: 1 Book per Week

Hi Guys,

I was reading a post last week of a famous technology blogger who had read 1 book a week for the last year - In total he read about 60 books. 60 books!!!! That’s more than what some people read in their lives…lol

And I thought, if I read even 50 books this year, what kind of man would I be today? How different would I be? And could this habit of one book a week have a huge positive impact on my life?

No point thinking about it! :)

Starting today - I will read 1 book a week until Dec 31, 2011. So, I’ll need to complete a minimum of 15 books in 3.5 months.

One book per week until the end of 2011

I’ll re-assess and share my thoughts in a blog post with you all.

In case you’re wondering how I will do it? I’ll need to read a minimum of 40 pages per day to make this work. Most books are 250-300 pages long, so I may need extra time on weekends to play catch up!

I’ll also be reading on my train ride to and from work - books to start off for now and eventually move to reading 100% on the ipad. I have too many physical books that I’ve been meaning to read.

Wish me luck! :)

P.S. Would you like me to share what I read?
