Hey guys, I hope you are having a lovely evening.

I'm currently writing an article on the importance of reading.

I would like to hear your opinions. I'm calling for contributions.

I will definitely give you a mention, and maybe share some of the rewards with you.

So comment below.

Why is it important to read?

Reading is one of the greatest joys in life. It allows you to "sit" with great minds of today and yesteryear. You not only get to sit with them, but have their best material that they crafted, edited, re-edited, and re-edited again, to give you the gems of their thoughts.

There is a big learning curve in cryptocurrencies and mastering all of this. Yes, there are strange new terms. Yes, there are strange new procedures. However, I've found that if you embrace "syntopic learning" you do better. What is syntopic learning?

Gather several sources of material on a common subject. Let's say you wanted to learn about Steemit (good platform!). You'll hear terms like upvote, resteem and not to mention Steem Power, Steem Dollars and a host of other new terms.

Don't be overwhelmed but read from a variety of sources on this. Look through Steemit posts. Look at the Steemit White Paper (click on the 3 lines in the upper-right and slide down to "Steem Whitepaper" for a good start. All of this is gathering a variety of sources for your syntopic learning.

Yes, reading is powerful. It has been said many times, "Readers are Leaders." Lead yourself first by aggressively reading and learning.

Yes, the importance of reading cannot be over-emphasized . It's so amazing how fluid the brain is, need I say our mind is powerful beyond measures. But our challenge is we seek succour in people that have invested in themselves to show us the easy way. As much as its good to have mentors, I believe what one discovers oneself truly sets the pace for a lasting knowledge. Research, reading and it's application are principal.

There is nothing that had not being said
From what a good initiative this is to the benefits of reading
One can not just understand reading if one doesn't read.
I promise myself to henceforth read no matter how difficult it is, as long as its on Steemit

Cryptocurrency is all about personal work. One has to do research to gain more knowledge.
Its all about reading and researching.

One thing i have come to undertsand is that , lide is all aboit reading . the essence of going to school is to learn by getting to read
Via reading comes knowledge and knowledge is the key to existence ...

Queennette has got your back bruah!😁

He who reads will always be full with knowledge and knowledge is power
