Read One Paragraph After Sitting Down in Bed

Whenyou sit down in bed

Open a book and read one paragraph. Continue if you want; the paragraph is enough for this start.

Why it works

Clear separates learning to show up from learning to do more. A paragraph gives tonight’s reading a small entrance.

Start tiny

Read one sentence.

What you’ll notice

You end the day having actually read something.

When it slips

Too tired to follow it? Read one sentence, then close the book. Keep sleep the priority.
