Excellent advise. Huge respect for diving into Russian literature. When I was in 7th grade, my English teacher asked each of us in the class at what pace they read. Most popped off with some number. One girl said a page a minute. I also went with the crowd and gave some number. One boy had the nerve to say he didn't worry about it. He said he figured the great masters or any author didn't work away for years so some teenager could come along and rip through their work at a page a minute. In high school I learned that he was accepted by a host of Ivy League colleges. I'm sure he went on to great things.
Love this! It's the obvious things that we always forget because of our fast-paced world. I am always very hard on myself with the amount of books (or even pages) that I read in a set time, but then I look back and see that I have done well enough. Social media can be a great poison to our progress as many are aggressive in their actions. It's as if it's not much of a hobby but more of something to do to put out contents. It's sad but if that's what they wanna do and if it makes them happy, then I am happy for them too.
I struggled with the same thing. I’m a relatively slow reader, but as long as I’m being consistent, enjoying and learning from the books I read then that’s all that really matters in the end.
Also watch out for speed reading videos especially the "How to read 10,000 Books a Day" variety. They just make you feel bad.
