Pretty deep experience of yours you just shared. You have got to have an insatiable curiosity to get to the very end!

I'm minimizing how I read now.. Everybody is complaining lol, saying I read a lot. Although stopping entirely isn't possible cause it's now who I am. It's even more fulfilling, sharing what I know to the people around.. That's what counts most.. smiley

Through reading, I have been able to develop how I write and speak which to me, is my greatest asset.

Reading is fun.. We don't get to live a thousand years, but we can through reading.

HOW I GOT SO ADDICTED TO EATING BOOKS.

By Johnspeak Uwangue (Motivational Speaker, Talent Manager and Coach)

As an undergraduate in AAU, I was more like a late reader, I seldom read until like 3days to exams. But after graduation, I was discussing with a mentor of mine who happens to be a senior lecturer and he said, "Johnspeak, If you want to go far in your career you must be studious".

After that event, I was studying my bible one night and I started feeling dizzy like I always do when studying, but I pressed on. It got to a point my head was moving on its own and then BAM!, it happened. My eyes were opened, dizziness varnished, and I actually read till the next morning. Now, I can read a 20,000 words write up without feeling tired. I was reading Stephen Covey's THE 8th HABIT book that the words started looking familiar, I later remembered that I have read it before and was reading it the 8th time.

I'd read John Maxwell's TALENT IS NEVER ENOUGH book for about 5hours that I forgot I'd a date.

The key to killing dizziness while studying is to press on no matter how you feel.

Lol.. Not really.. Weary in what sense? I'm pretty young, but I sound like a grandpa when I talk. It's been a major aura of attraction anywhere I go and believe me, people don't joke with me.. Not bragging though, just stating the obvious. Knowing too much comes with disadvantages like depression, but the advantage outweighs the cons..

Knowledge is power. The money I earn now, the friends I have, everything I have can be traced down to reading...

Na lie. The bible tells you what's happening in the "word". Other good books including the newspapers informs you about the going ons in the world.
# Both are very important.

Of course the Bible tells both. If there is chaos in the your area for example, or the pythonians are about to take over, The bible already said that things like these would happen in the last days. Its the newspaper, books whatever that you read that will keep you abreast with the current state of things.
The importance of Reading the Bible can not be overemphasized. But the same goes for other books. You may know the bible 100% but know nothing about the current affairs of your country, public speaking, making friends etc.
There are places you want to be now. Some other persons have gone there. So reading a book they wrote will guide you on how to get there, help you avoid their mistakes n make your transit almost easy.
I read the bible. I love it. Its my manual but I still had to read how to be led by the Holy spirit by Kenneth Hagin to really understand the Holy Spirit.
Books are important. Don't be a half baked somebody!!

That is where wisdom comes.. Whenever I want to advice anyone, I will say; read both the good and bad books. By doing that, you expose yourself to different perception. Wisdom is when you can the two sides of a coin...

everywhere you turn to people introduce themselves as motivation speaker especially youths who feel they can read and speak well.

Johnspeak this question is specifically for you. What is the meaning of a motivation speaker. what exactly do you do?

The Bible is the book of books. But there are also other inspirational books that are worth reading and most of them use the Holy Books Bible as a standard.
