Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2024 - 8th April

-

Hi 

Hope you had a great week. For me, it was a special week. It was my mum's birthday and we also had a family wedding to attend. So I had a wonderful week as we spent time with family - a much needed break indeed!

Sharing below a list of 20 articles and 2 books. I understand that finding time to read may be challenging at times but reading is important and plays an important role in doing well at competitive exams. 

You can begin by setting a timer for 25 mins of reading for the whole week and see how you fare. Record how you felt - both positive and negative feelings. These will help you understand yourself better and help you build the habit of reading. 

Good luck to you and do write to me so I can be of better service and help to you.

Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2024 - 2nd January

Hello everyone!  Happy New Year to you and all your loved ones. May we read a little more… A new year is associated with new beginnings. And I saw so many putting in their efforts to help create that motivation to begin afresh through posts having quotes and sayings, and even word searches. So I made one for you. But I don’t want you to settle for the first word you find. Instead search for what you really want to work on. So now that you have found that goal, let’s work on it and write down 3 things you would do to ensure that goal is attained.  Coming back to the reading list, like last year, I will again share a list of 20 articles and a few short stories. If there is anything else you would like me to include, do write to me. I have enjoyed putting together a list of articles for you to read. My goal is to help you find the joy of reading.  Sharing this week’s list of 20 articles . Including a special section for poems for XAT takers Good luck to all those taking XAT 2024.  https:/

Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2022 Week May 23rd, 2022

Hello everyone!  Hope all of you had a lovely weekend and met your targets. As for me, my target this week was to relax and rejuvenate myself. I think I fared pretty well as I met my target. :) I had a wonderful week with my family as we went out to spend some time away from this hot weather. Spending time with your loved ones is a blessing and we take this for granted often when we spend each day just doing our tasks.  Another happy moment was when I came across a lovely song ‘Khula Asmaan’ which I want to share with you. It makes me feel emptiness, which is actually a beautiful feeling. My favourite line in this song is - Tu dhoop, mein saya.  Khula Asmaan (Firmament) | Unbounded Abaad | Purbayan Chatterjee, Javed Ali | Sufiscore Now, back to the reading list. And don’t forget to share your feedback, comments, suggestions Reach out to me on rochelle@quoinacademy.com . Let’s set sail! https://lithub.com/kate-eichhorn-on-the-rise-of-insta-artists-and-insta-poets/ https://www.japantime
