Leaders are Readers
Somewhere along my journey in life, someone told me that leaders are readers.
I can remember being a kid and hating to read. My aunt would always try to get me to read books, but I was to focused on playing Madden and NBA Live at the time.
It wasn’t until I got older and went to college that I started reading books on my own. I met a guy on campus one day who was only in his second year who had already bought a house. He told me he read a lot and with that information was able to buy a house. I figured I didn’t want a house at the time, but I might as well do something productive with my abundant amount of free time, and learn a thing or two while I was at it.
The first book I read was Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I remembered my mom talking about that book when I was in high school, but at the time I was into driving around southern California and chasing the skirts.
The same guy who had the house was the place where I starting reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad. After taking in a few chapters, I knew I had to buy a copy of my own, which ultimately began my passion for reading and quest for knowledge.
As I think back, if I hadn’t of left home, and went to college, I never would have met that guy. What I learned from him has turned into a full-fledged habit. I make it a point to read for at least 20 minutes a day. That’s nothing compared to the time I spend keeping up with sports. If you feel you can’t find 20 minutes in your day for some quality reading, then you definitely need to invest in a time-management workshop.
Knowledge without action is powerless, so make sure you put what you read into action. Remember, your mind needs to work out to, because if it doesn’t, it to can get out of shape.
