Hey Michael, I'm trying to set some new reading goals this year. Any thoughts on how to make them stick?

Michael (Male)
That's a great idea, Sarah! I've been thinking along similar lines. My main goal is to read at least two books a month. What about you?
这是个好主意,莎拉!我也有类似的想法。我的主要目标是每个月至少读两本书。你呢?

Sarah (Female)
Two books a month sounds ambitious but achievable! I'm aiming for one book a month, but more importantly, I want to venture into new genres. I tend to stick to thrillers and historical fiction.
每月两本书听起来雄心勃勃但可以实现!我的目标是每月一本书,但更重要的是,我想尝试新体裁。我倾向于只读惊悚小说和历史小说。

Michael (Male)
Exploring new genres is an excellent goal! I'm planning to tackle some non-fiction this year. For sticking to it, I find setting aside a specific time each day really helps, even if it's just 20 minutes.
探索新体裁是一个很棒的目标!我打算今年读一些非虚构类书籍。为了坚持下去,我发现每天留出特定的时间真的很有帮助,即使只有20分钟。
5
Sarah (Female)
That's a smart strategy. I've heard others recommend that too. Maybe I can dedicate my lunch break to reading instead of scrolling through my phone.
这是个聪明的策略。我也听别人推荐过。也许我可以把午休时间用来阅读,而不是刷手机。
6
Michael (Male)
Perfect! And for exploring new genres, maybe pick up something totally different next time you're at the library or bookshop. Don't overthink it, just grab something that catches your eye.
太棒了!至于探索新体裁,下次你去图书馆或书店的时候,也许可以挑一本完全不同的书。别想太多,随便拿一本吸引你眼球的。
7
Sarah (Female)
Good point. Sometimes the pressure to choose the 'right' book can be paralyzing. I could try some classics, or maybe even poetry.
说得有道理。有时选择“正确”书籍的压力会让人不知所措。我可以试试一些经典作品,甚至诗歌。
8
Michael (Male)
Exactly! And don't feel bad if you don't finish every book. It's about the journey and discovering what you enjoy. Maybe we can recommend books to each other throughout the year?
没错!如果你没有读完每一本书,也不要感到难过。重要的是过程和发现你喜欢什么。也许我们可以在这一年里互相推荐书籍?

Sarah (Female)
I love that idea! It would definitely add an extra layer of motivation. Thanks, Michael, this was really helpful.
我喜欢这个主意!这肯定会增加额外的动力。谢谢你,迈克尔,这真的很有帮助。
