Yes, my friends. This one IS obvious. But seeing as how this is a list of healthy habits, I HAD TO add it to the list. So here’s what I can do for you. Let me add some tips in this area you HAVEN’T seen!

For those of you who just don’t have the time to read, I think I can offer you several ways to get this done. You can listen to an audiobook while you commute to work. I’ll bet you knew that one. Did you know, however, that you can double the speed at which the book is read back to you? It really makes a big impact on your consumption levels. Not only that, you’ll adjust to it so quickly that everything else will seem like a turtle’s pace.

You can also speed up a podcast. Podcasts are useful if you are trying to pick up a new skill or be more effective at work for example. Don’t overlook them. Also, if fiction is more your taste, audiobooks are not the only option. You can find old radio shows (serialized fiction) for free on the internet as well. And yes, you can speed that up, too. But maybe you shouldn’t.

Here’s another tip about reading that I bet you don’t know. If you are trying to learn a new language, then take a book (in your target language) to bed with you. If you fall asleep while reading it, you will learn that new language faster. It is a proven fact and has worked for celebs like Johnny Depp, Christina Aguilera, Penelope Cruz, Tobey Maguire, Jack Black, and even Christian Slater!

If audio books are not your thing, and you are still pressed for time, I can still get you done faster than usual! Check out this article we wrote on speed reading. Let’s see. What else can I do for you?

How about this? If you find that you are STILL too busy, then maybe I can find one MORE tip you may not have known. How about Book Summaries? You can simply read a summary of a book (instead of the entire book) and still improve your knowledge while you are on the go. Combine this with an audio version set on 2x normal and welcome to the future, you Speed Demon, you!
