The so-called reading refers to concentrating attention for a long time to read a large amount of text. Only in this way can you experience the satisfaction that comes after immersing yourself in it for a long time.

Only in this way can you combat anxiety. You no longer settle for fleeting happiness but start seeking lasting fulfillment.

A report indicates that nearly ninety percent of the respondents are more or less anxious, with almost sixty percent being constantly worried or frequently anxious. Dissatisfaction with salary and income shortage has become a significant anxiety issue for contemporary people. However, high income does not necessarily mean less anxiety or more happiness.

The report shows that the higher-income groups tend to perceive anxiety more strongly, and their sense of happiness also declines. Therefore, high-income groups generally experience more substantial anxiety compared to low-income groups.

The report suggests that reading is a response to this background, a profound observation. Maintaining a long-term reading habit is often like nourishment, silently enriching individuals like the gentle touch of spring rain. Long-term reading not only helps readers broaden their horizons and improve their inner selves but also helps control emotions and alleviate personal anxiety.

Does reading more lead to higher income? Not necessarily. But people with higher incomes often read more. Through a survey of average annual reading volume, the report found a clear positive correlation between income level and reading volume.

Reading may not directly bring fame, but it can help people resist adversity and alleviate the discomfort caused by anxiety, especially in solving subjectively generated anxiety. The report shows that in terms of the degree of relief from anxiety through reading, 50.4% of the respondents believe that reading has a mitigating effect on their anxiety.

From the frequency of reading, nearly 60% of users with reading habits read for more than three days a week; in terms of reading duration, almost 30% of users maintain a daily reading time of more than 2 hours. Among this group of readers, those born in the 1990s and 2000s account for 30.3% and 23.3%, respectively. It can be seen that the reading ability of these young people far exceeds imagination.

Work, socializing, and other activities already occupy much time. Where can contemporary "working people" find time to read? The answer is that the preferred time is during the commute. The report shows that respondents in first-tier and new first-tier cities prefer to read during commuting, with most like reading while taking the subway, bus, or plane.

Reading becomes one of their choices, despite the constant influx of various information and entertainment into the lives of young people. Many still strive for in-depth textual reading: postgraduate students buried in books in the library; urban white-collar workers buying more than 20 professional books at once; young girls sunbathing in the park while reading literature books. Reading becomes a remedy for life, a picturesque scenery.
