Why is reading so important to your growth & success?
The level of your outer success is tied to your level of inner development. The key measure of your inner growth and development is the rate at which you learn. How can you continue to learn? A core practice is developing a habit of reading. Through reading you expose yourself to new and generative ideas which will improve and transform your life.
Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary.
— Jim Rohn
