What are you reading?
"Read irresponsibly?"- t-shirt slogan
I often ask people around me what they are reading. Sometimes a flood of book names comes out. Most often the person says nothing. Which always makes me wonder, "what is the difference between someone who does not read and someone who can't read?" Nothing.
I am constantly reading at least one book at a time. My library allows me to borrow five magazine so I borrow five magazines. My phone has at least one ebook loaded.
The quote above stopped me cold. How does one read irresponsibly? I believe that I do. I read from varied sources and that allows me to see ideas percolate from different fields.
Great ideas have application in more than one area. You just have to look for it. I believe that we have to have new information coming in from different sources in order to be able to generate great ideas.
Today's question is:
"Do you read irresponsibly?
