Goal Accomplishment Criteria
34 books are read by the end of this year including paper books, e-books or audio books from the list I’ve created as well as any additional ones I’d have a wish to read.
Personal resources
I believe I can find at least 2 hours a day for reading. The list of books for this year is ready. Most of the books I already have in paper or digital format.
Goal ecological compatibility
I used to read a lot in my childhood and as a student. Having graduated from the 2nd university and started work I used to have an excuse of having no time for reading but I dream to read at least 2 books a week
