10 Benefits of Reading: Why You Should Read Every Day (4 of 5)

Improved Focus and Concentration

One of the biggest pitfalls of technology and social media is that our brains have become extremely lazy. We are spoon-fed information and entertainment all day long. Books encourage you to focus on following a story of dialogue that lasts longer than a 15-second reel. Even just reading for about 20 to 30 minutes a day can work wonders for your focus and concentration skills.

Honed Writing Skills

To write, we all had to learn to read as well. So naturally, the amount of time you spend reading will directly influence your ability to write. If you are looking to improve your writing skills, try reading more every day. Just witness how much better you get at writing as a result of increased reading.
