Though a lot of free time that we can use to read. For example, while waiting for the departure of aircraft, at bus stops, terminals, even for people who do not have health problems if reading on the vehicle, can take the time to read. Five minutes of reading can add insight to our knowledge. We can build our inner motivation by increasing reading including reading the biography of successful people.
