Serious question:
Very often I see here post where people discuss / struggle with / are obsessed with / … / their reading goals.
Why do you have reading goals at all? I find “goals” make sense in activities that one would NOT enjoy, like doing sports. Yes, my goal could be to go running 2 times a week. Or eat veggy half of the month. Calling relatives more than once a year. You name it. But why with such a peaceful and relaxing activity like reading?
I mean, why do you not just read as much as you like, in the pace that you enjoy? Why making yourself a pressure? Does it not ruin the fun in reading for you? It would definitely ruin it for me!
I also do like measurable challenges in different aspects of life, both professional and private. But reading seems so counter-intuitive for that.
Please dont get me wrong, I dont want to offend! Im sure there are good explanations behind it, and I am curious to understand (maybe adopt) them 🙂
