How to Develop in-house Library

My Dear Friends !

If you are reading on average one book every month that would equal 12 books per year. If you were to keep this pace up, you would read 120 books in ten years. Studies show that the average person reads less than one non-fiction book per year. Now, here is the interesting part. If you are reading in the area of your expertise, it won’t take you long to become an expert in your field.

Advantage of Reading

One of the advantages to reading is it keeps your mind in shape. When you make it a point to have plenty of books around to read, it makes it convenient to learn. It has been said that "The more you learn, the more you can earn." Remember, most people try to get by in life by doing the least. With that kind of competition, it is not hard to excel in your field of endeavor.

Personal Library

One way to get you started on building your mind through books is to start your own personal library. All it takes is one shelf in a corner of a room, and you will have your private library established. When you buy a book it becomes yours. You own it. You can write in it, bend the pages, and use a yellow marking pen to highlight the parts you want to reread again and again. It is a little like the analogy of leasing a car versus buying a car. When you own the car, you take better care of it and appreciate it more. There is a pride of ownership that comes from owning it. Books are the same way. When you own them, you take them more seriously.

Another great place for some spectacular finds is your local library and in Delhi, Dariya Ganj Book Market can cater all your book related needs in a cheaper way. Today, most libraries have a used bookstore inside the building. Typically you can buy paperback books for Rs.95 each and hard cover books for Rs. 500. I want to repeat, when you own the books, they mean more to you. These books become part of your educational mirror.

So, my advice to you is, grow your expertise by investing in the Books and reading books in your area of professional interest and watch your book bank account growing and growing.
