Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2023 - 2nd January

Hello everyone! 

Happy New Year to you and all your loved ones. May we read a little more…

This year as you resolve to read a little more, focus on being consistent. It could be reading for 10 minutes everyday or 5 pages. Do what is comfortable for you. But focus on being consistent. Tracking whether you read everyday is the best way to stay focused. 

So let’s commit to track our reading habit as we progress through this new year.
