I realise people exist who don't read. But it's like I knew there were people who didn't breathe or eat: I can't imagine a life like that. If you have a passion for a subject, a subject that speaks to you, then you should keep learning that subject. You should keep trying to improve and learn as much as possible about that subject.

While we’re on the subject of not reading, why would you want to do something without reading about it first? Let's say you're taking up the hobby of cooking and one day you decide to go out and buy a few cookbooks. The first thing you need to do is spend some time reading up on the subject and familiarising yourself with what’s there before you make any purchases. The same goes for anything else in your life.

If you want to do something new, you should do some research into the different options available before getting started. The idea is that even though it might seem unimportant or uninteresting at first, once you start learning about it it becomes something truly special.
