How to Increase Reading Stamina
When trying to expand your reading capacity, it's important to choose interesting books that you're excited about. Avoid using Anna Corinna or Thomas Pinchen as these won't help you progress. Opt for a book that you're highly enthusiastic about and find hard to put down. This is like choosing a flat, easy track for running instead of struggling up a steep hill. Interval training can also be beneficial in building reading stamina, where you set a timer and focus on reading until it goes off. Start with a reasonable but challenging time, like 30 minutes, and gradually increase it by 15 minutes each session. This method helps improve concentration and endurance.
