Travel & Leisure: Self-development

Why do you want to do this?

I LOVE to read -- but I only get a few minutes to do it during my 20 minute subway commute to work each day. I wish I had more time to really sit down with a good book and enjoy it. When I'm home and I'm reading -- I always think of 100 other things I need to be doing and can't really relax with it. (That's why I always have a to-do list to help) But I wish I could focus more on doing this hobby that I truly love.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Set aside time -- I'd rather read than watch TV but sometimes I get sucked into my "shows" and don't get to read as much as I'd like

Suggestions -- I have a "must-read" list that is a mile long -- I need to prioritize

Focus -- I need to be committed to doing this because I do really love it once I'm doing it. I just get pulled in too many directions and put it off.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Setting aside time to do it. I'd like to really "make a set time" for myself each day to do this thing that I really love.

 Would love to see some of the titles on your 'must read' list.  Could you share a few with us?  I'm working on the same goal as well.
