Open Your Ears to a Great Book

I hated my drives to and from work. All I could do was listen to the radio regurgitating the news that I had already read about in the newspaper....But someone gave me an audio copy of a book as a present. Since then, audio books have turned that wasted time every day into a time when I can think and learn.

For example, by buying Hillary Clinton's re-release of her earlier work as a book on tape and listening to it at the gym, I was able to thoroughly exercise both my mind and body. And I finished the book before it was even out of the news. Likewise, when packing for a seminar out of town, whether flying or taking the train, I am sure to bring along several audio books on CD. Not only do they provide interest as I travel they also provide something to talk about when I arrive at my destination.

I used to come home from work, collapse in my favorite chair and flip on the TV. But I wasn't likely to pick up anything with words on it in the evening or on the weekends simply because I was worn out from so many hours of reading so many memos at work. Now, my lovely wife and I select an audio book that interests us both to enjoy for a while after dinner. With our eyes and hands unoccupied we are free to either relax and listen or to straighten the house.

These days, at any given time, I am reading at least three books: one I listen to in my car driving to and from work, one I take to the health club, and another my wife and I listen to at home when we really can’t stand to watch another “reality” show. I enjoy the prestige of having a reputation as the most well-read person in the neighborhood; moreover, being up to date both on current issues and topics of historical relevance gives me a valuable perspective on the news of the day.

Well, I would love to share more but I just learned that Bob Newhart's new book is available in audio form on disc. I'm sorry to end this, but I have some reading scheduled.
