Victor Hugo once said, “To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.” It’s true that reading is very important. As a business owner, I encourage my team to read regularly. And so should you. In recognition of Read Across America Day, read anything. Read books on productivity life-hacks, read fiction, read anything that interests you.
