Some of you may think I’m strange, but reading is one of my favorite hobbies. When I was young, I would hide myself under the covers at bedtime with a flashlight and a book because I just had to finish The Babysitter’s Club, Harry Potter, or The Boxcar Children—whatever was gripping my attention that particular night.
Fast forward 15 years later and I still enjoy reading, but certainly don’t have the extra time to spend hours pouring over books (especially now that I have a toddler!). One day, my husband gave me the idea of listening to books—and it was a great one! With audio books, I can pay attention to my son and maybe get a few things done around the house, but still get to enjoy a book. Then it hit me—I could use that same idea in my work.
