 Books though weigh less; they are huge powerhouses of knowledge and wisdom.  Owning an appropriate book in the required field can take us to the nest level.

By owning Chanakya Neeti, I actually came to know about many sad truths of the society.

2.      Improved Vocabulary

Grammar and Vocabulary are major challenges for anyone who wants to become professionals in any language. No matter how good do we learn about right vocabulary in your school classes, it is taken to the next level by the habit of Book reading.

3.      Imaginative ability

By birth all people have some extent of imaginative ability. But many people fail to use this ability in required situations. In these cases this ability has to be improved.

Book reading can be a good solution for these people. Going through some particular type of books can actually improve the imaginative ability.

A person who is a reader from very young age can turn into a good writer too since this habits opens door for a new world of imagination. Book reading help us to update our perception towards various concepts.

4.      Concentration

It is proven that Book reading can increase the mental stability of a person. It is because it stipulates the brain for various activities including concentration on any work that we are into.

Since brain is also a part of our body, it also needs exercise. No exercise is as good as Book reading. This habit keeps the brain fit, healthy and sharp.

Since books take us to a different world of itself, it instantaneously reduces the stress by relaxing brain and heart. This is the reason why many people carry their favorite book(s) with them to where ever they go.

As a result of smartness, there is a scope of large number of new ideas to be generated. It sounds weird but is true. Here is an example: A person who was into rice processing business once read a book regarding the home service by a salon company. He thought why shouldn’t be this idea be implemented in his business too. He got a new idea of mobile rice machinery that can move to the house of his customers thus giving them ‘at their doorstep’ service.
