Benefits Of Reading Books: How Reading Greatly Enhances Your Life
By Michael Lee

There are many benefits of reading books. Unfortunately, in this day and age, not a lot of people take the time to read them anymore.

When was the last time you pick something up? Blame your answer on technology if you must, but that doesn't change the fact that you're missing out on a lot of wonderful benefits!

Read on to learn the various benefits of reading books!

1) It Feeds Your Mind.

Obviously, reading books provides you with new knowledge. Whenever you read something, you learn new information that you otherwise would not have known.

It can be a fact about history or a theory you did not know existed. If you want to learn new words in particular, reading books is a great way to enrich your vocabulary. And if you want to read more books at a fraction of the time, developing your speed reading skills would save you a lot of time.

2) It Keeps Your Brain In Shape.

Reading also keeps your mind in good condition. Similar to solving puzzles, reading books allows your mind to practice its processing skills.

Going without books for too long will turn your mind to mush. I'm not kidding! Why do you think they call television the boob tube?

3) It Develops Your Critical Thinking Skills.

One of the primary benefits of reading books is its ability to develop your critical thinking skills. Reading mystery novels, for example, sharpens your mind. Whenever you are faced with a similar problem in real life, your mind is now able to put its mystery-solving prowess to a test.

4) It Makes You More Articulate.

There's nothing quite like reading books to help you become a better conversationalist. Seeing how words are used (and how sentences are structured) with your own eyes helps you commit the information to memory better than by listening to a teacher discuss the points in class.

5) It Is Accessible.

One of the great benefits of reading books is that the information in it can be accessed over and over again. When you're following a recipe, for example, reading a cookbook allows you the luxury of reviewing the procedures and the ingredients whenever you need to.

Unless you have a photographic memory, following a recipe from a cooking show will be difficult. Don't even think about writing the information down because you will probably only lose the paper you wrote down on sooner or later.

These are just some of the wonderful benefits of reading books. Why don't you drop by the bookstore or library and pick a book up? If you can't even go outside, you can download free ebooks online and read them on your computer. That way, you can see how advantageous reading can be for yourself!
