TSA #19 – Read

Mar 26, 2012 by Ben

Another easy Truly Simple Action for you this week.  Read.  Read a book.  Actually read two books.

Get on Amazon or head to the local bookstore, or better yet, head down to your local library and pick out 2 books.  Get one fiction book that is fun to read.   Then also get a non-fiction book about something you want to learn about.

They key here is to turn off the TV and enjoy reading a book.  The extra credit is to not only enjoy reading a good story from a good book, but also pick out a book about something you’ve always wanted to learn about.  Pick out something crazy.  Want to learn how to build a house or race top speed across the salt flats of Utah?  Pick out an interesting book on whatever random topic that you want to learn about.

It’s time to read a book and expand your horizons.

I just finished the Steve Jobs biography and am starting on Tina Fey’s latest book Bossypants.

Got any good book recommendations, please leave a comment below.  I’m always looking for a good book.
