I fell in love with reading at a very young age. I would say I was influenced and motivated by my Dad because he really imparted the art of reading to me.
In fact as a kid I enjoyed reading the bible -most especially the old testament and I was a mini Bible scholar. Whenever it is time for bible quiz in the children church; I always come out on top.
My friends do ask me;
"how do you know this or that".
I simply reply them
"By reading"
I know dear friend that you are familiar with this popular adage:
"Readers are leaders"
Why are readers: leaders?
Readers becomes leaders because their world get enlarged by reading.
A book can be liken to a universe and when you read a book it's like you travel to another world.
Good books or articles mesmerize us and the memories of it stays in our heads perhaps forever.
Only readers who applies the knowledge that they have learnt from books to solve real life problems are those who become leaders. For knowledge is stored down in books.
People always say that knowledge is power but that is not true. It is a myth. Knowledge only has the potential to become power, it only becomes power when we use it.
The ways to mind
I will say that books are foods for the the mind and soul, and by reading we nourish our mind. Reading is also like a lecture for the mind.
But do you know that your mind can also lecture you, just as you lecture it by reading
Yes by Writing!
Reading and writing work in tandem. They can be said to be a two way radio for communicating with the mind.
By reading you communicate to your mind, but by writing you allow your mind to communicate to you.
In conclusion great leaders are not only vehement readers but they also have to write out their thoughts so their followers can learn from it
This where I drop my pen. Special thanks to my amazing sponsors, potential sponsors and by wonderful readers.
I really want to make a lot of friends here.
