Edited for this text · available offline
Reading for five minutes a day sounds too small to matter. Yet habits grow from repetition, not intensity. When a task is easy to start, the brain stops negotiating with itself.
Short sessions also help comprehension. Instead of rushing, you can pause, reread a hard sentence, and look up a new word. Over weeks, these small pauses build vocabulary and confidence.
