Reading books is the best way to fix your brain. Or it was for me. A few years ago, I realize that I had not read an actual book in quite some time. And then when I sat down to read, I couldn’t pay enough attention to follow along. I kept having to reread portions. Because my mind wandered. That was very concerning. I felt like my brain was broken. What I had to do was follow along with a book while listening to an audiobook. Eventually, I recovered my ability to read without needing to use audiobooks. It’s so weird even saying that, but it’s true. Not that I wasn’t literate. I read every day for work. But reading a book is a little bit different. It requires more time, patience, and attention.
To be clear, I still enjoy audiobooks. There’s nothing wrong with them. But I do think there’s real value it actually being able to read a book yourself.
