Up until the very few weeks ago, I usually read just before going to bed.

What’s the reason for that? Obviously, couldn’t find any spare time. However, I have discovered a brilliant way to have at least 1 extra hour for such activity. Everything is really simple, actually.

Instead of driving to the gym (which takes ~40 minutes total (20 mins. to each side)), I’ve started using public transport.

Wait? What? Public transport wastes your time!

Let me explain. Although it takes 30 minutes to reach my destination, I can actually use that time to… yes, read! As I no longer have to concentrate on driving. So therefore, by “wasting” only 20 extra minutes of my life, I have a total of 60 minutes for the personal growth.

Simple, yet brilliant.

Of course, I am not encouraging you to completely stop using your car. It’s a great, quick and comfortable transport.

However, I am sure you can scan through your daily life and find a way to incorporate such “strategy”.

Some people use a bus to reach their work. Instead of looking through the window, why not grab a book and start improving the quality of your life? Don’t worry about the background noise, you will get used to it. Additionally, you can always grab a pair of headphones.

1, 2, 3, Go!
