Reading is important, but probably even more important is WHAT you're reading.------------------------------SOURCES:Benefits of Reading Books:https://www.healthline.com/health/benefits-of-reading-booksThe brain in your pocket: Evidence that Smartphones are used to supplant thinking:https://www.academia.edu/30785306/The_brain_in_your_pocket_Evidence_that_Smartphones_are_used_to_supplant_thinkingReading Literary Fiction Improves Theory of Mindhttps://science.sciencemag.org/content/342/6156/377Your Brain on Reading (Why Your Brain Needs You to Read Every Day)https://medium.com/swlh/this-is-your-brain-on-reading-why-your-brain-needs-you-to-read-every-day-a472b04da2e0------------------------------CREDITS:Andrei Terbea - Lead AnimatorStefan Popa - Assistant Animatorhttps://www.instagram.com/jtefe.ro/Nicoleta Toader - Producer------------------------------MUSIC:Delusional (Instrumental) by Spring GangSudden Death (Instrumental) by Sightless in ShadowOutro song: Joakim Karud - Loudness & Clarityhttp://youtube.com/joakimkarud------------------------------#Books #OneBookAWeek #Reading Some might read the title of the video and think oh, cool, I don't have to read, I wasn't going to anyway. If that's the case, I suggest you watch the entire video first. Reading is very important, it has many benefits for your brain, and unfortunately, school prepares us from a young age to see reading as a chore or as something unpleasant. Then there's the other type of people who only read Personal Development and Self Help books, and that's mainly who I'm targeting with this video. The Self Help industry is making billions of dollars every year, often selling sub-par written content that gives the illusion of personal growth. There's so much more value in a novel, or a history book, than you will ever find in the average Self-improvement book. So although I'm talking about why you should read less, the moral of the story - spoiler alert - is why you should read more, or why you should be more selective with the type of books you're reading. Looking forward to the conversation in the comment section.
