Old habits die hard, they say. How right they are.
I am a novel freak and have been since the 4th grade when I read an amazing novel that started me down the road of reading.
I continued this craze for reading right into college and even early in my career. I didn't quit even when I got married and had my first beautiful daughter.
But as you would expect, as I climb higher in my career and the kids increase from 1 to 3, I am beginning to have less time to spend doing what I loved so much - reading novels.
Being a die-hard at anything I do, I continued to read novels.
Sadly, it was starting to take me 3 months to read just one novel, instead of the 3 or so hours it used to take me when I had more time.
I would read a chapter on one day and then put the novel aside.
In two weeks time, when I had some free time on my hands, I would read another chapter. Then it would be another 2 or 3 weeks before I could read another. And so on, until I would finish just one novel.
I didn't like this and knew that there had to be a better way of STILL getting the value of a novel in the same 3 hours it used to take me, instead of the 3 months it now takes me to finish just one novel.
I started asking for a way out.
Thankfully, I found one...
Audio books!
I simply buy the novel I want to buy, not in hardcover or paperback, but in audio book format - containing the exact same content of the novel in spoken-word!
Now I don't have the limitations I used to have with "reading"
my favorite novels.
In the morning while doing my chores of exercising, making breakfast, dressing up for work, etc, I listen to my novel in audio book format. While commuting to work, I continue from where I stopped. During break at work, I also listen. And before driving back home from work, I complete the remaining part of the novel.
Total time spent - about 4 hours for each novel.
Phew... how I love audio books for saving me so much time, yet I'm still getting the same value!
