Reading More
"Extreme Reading Habits" This morning I read this article on the habits of some well-known people. They read about five hours a week. Just to learn stuff. This transition to Qatar took a toll on my reading habits. Basically, I have been too tired to read at night. Also, good books are hard to find here. We have one book store and it mostly sells office supplies. In addition, TV is just too easy an option. So, as part of my 2017 reset, I am committing to reading five hours a week. This week, I finished the November/December issue of Foreign Affairs . It focuses on the rise of populism, but it also had good articles on the leaders in Egypt and Turkey. I am also about a third of the way through the fourth book in the Harry Potter series. This weekend, I started reading a book on the culture of Taiwan because I will be travelling there for the Chinese New Year later this month. Soon, I will start a book for my book club called An Unnecessary Woman .
