The book is the most accessible source of information. The amount of knowledge that you learn depends on how correctly you read the books. Productive reading will be your first step to success.

Step 1
Decide what you need to read. It does not depend on your personal preferences for genres and authors, but on what you want to achieve in life, on your priorities. In accordance with your tasks, determine what skills, knowledge and skills you lack to become a successful and happy person. You can make a list of them, and then select one or two main points from this list.
Step 2
Narrow down the list of possible authors only to those who have proven themselves well in the area of your concern, based on the results of the previous step. Based on their biography and opinions of other readers about their books. Subsequently, this will significantly save your time, which, with a different approach, you could spend on the absorption of completely useless literature.
Step 3
Get the most out of your reading. If you want not only to have a pleasant, exciting and interesting time, but also to endure something necessary for your development, then it is better to read wisely. This should be done slowly, if possible in a calm atmosphere, tuned in to the desired mood. Have a pencil with which you will mark important passages. If you are reading an e-book, use the "Add a note" function and select the desired paragraph. Another option is to write out the parts of the book you liked and surprised you in a separate notebook, diary or notebook.
Step 4
Read books in the foreign language you are learning. This will not only help you learn new things, but it will also improve your language skills. When reading a sentence, for example, in English, try to grasp its meaning as a whole. If there are any words that you do not understand, do not dwell on them, translate them later. It is possible that as you read further, you will be able to grasp the meaning of the word based on the general context.
