It did say that a book is the best friend of a human being. In the journey of our real life, millions of people enter and exit our lives, but a book written decades ago always stays by our side.
I am a zealous reader as well as a writer. So my life without a book is almost incomplete.
The devoted custom of reading has made me the person I am today.
The following are the seven ways in which a book plays a vital role in the transformation of our lives in the bright and dark hour:
1. Knowledge and General Awareness-
A book is a storehouse of facts, stories, statistics, forums, verses, graphics, graphs, jokes, riddles, etc. Books are the core source of knowledge.
A regular reading tradition not only enhances our wisdom but also scatters universal consciousness.
2. Vocabulary-
While reading magazines, articles, blogs, novels, newspapers or any reading material, we come across plenty of words that we are not familiar with.
With the aim of understanding the text, we wide-open our dictionaries to grasp the gist of a particular word in the book.
This practice not only provides us with the meaning of any term, but we also initiate using those words in our daily lives, hence, advancing our vocabulary.
3. Lightened up Anxiety-
Studying a book is one of the most common leisure pursuits of humankind. Besides being a hobby, this routine moderates all the trauma and easiness of a person and lightens up his exhausted frame of mind.
Books furnish an individual with great reasons to grin and instill glee. Books also provide an optimistic atmosphere in the lives of living beings.
4. Writing Proficiency-
Since a book comprises more than a million words, the book is also acknowledged as the room of vocabulary and concepts.
Books enhance our writing expertise and provide an open scope for a chain of thoughts to flow constantly in our brains.
These chains of thoughts gradually become a part of our daily write-ups.
5. Sturdy Concentration Power-
A book demands to be treated with total concentration so as to shower all the essential stuff inside our heads.
If we are distracted while reading, we tend to overlook the matter of the book, and hence there are chances of skipping the main facts.
Therefore, a book is entirely the primary source of boosting our concentration control, and they help to stay focused.
6. Sharp Memory-
Reading is a profitable convention; they change your life. It accelerates our brain cells present in the cerebrum of the brain, which widens up our intellect and advances our memorizing aptitude.
It also utilizes those cells that were mostly unused by our brain.
7. Efficient Command Over Language-
Reading books or even reading novels improvises our grammatical skills, and by and by we develop an active command over language and by and by feeling confident while communicating with people, expressing our views and opinions and inspiring us to participate actively in various activities.
Henceforth, ripening up the custom of reading is always beneficial in endless ways.
So, if you have not opened a book in your whole life, grab one right now, loosen up with the smooth flow of the words, and cherish the thrill you receive from a book’s companionship.
8. Power of Imagination
Reading many books not only improves self-knowledge but also strengthens your power to create a world in your own imagination.
Alice in wonderland would have been different to different folks in their own imagination.
And that is the power of books; they transform you into a whole new world written by the writer but in your own way, you can modify it, unlike films where you do not have the power organizing ideas the way you want to.
If you think your imagination skills have died over the years here are some books that might help you regain this power.
