CHANCES ARE you read a lot, but when was the last time you sat down and read a book? More and more, our reading habits trend toward texts, emails, and social media posts and away from books. Reading long-form text not only helps us think critically about new or complex ideas, but it also helps reduce stress and can increase your focus and concentration. This makes reading a crucial component of a performance lifestyle and doing what you love better and for longer!
