Read the Bible, History, and Classic Literature

President Harry Truman said, “Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.” If you want to grow as a person, you need to read great books. In particular, you need to read the Bible, history, and the classics of literature.

This book is an excellent reading guide, written by an accomplished professor of literature and writer. He shares a short list of essential books that educated people have long read.

I recommend reading a few pages with friends and family every day. Before long, you will have read a lot that will help you become a better person.
