GREGORY ELIASGREGORY ELIAS BETTERS HIMSELF THROUGH

READING

WHEN GREGORY ELIAS CAN SPARE A FEW MOMENTS FROM HIS BUSY

SCHEDULE AS A FINANCE PROFESSIONAL, HE LIKES TO USE THAT TIME TO

READ.

HE HAS FOUND THAT READING, EVEN JUST A LITTLE EACH DAY, HAS

IMPROVED HIS WHOLE LIFE AND OVERALL HEALTH.

ACTING AS THE CHAIRMAN AND

MANAGING DIRECTOR FOR THE UNITED GROUP CAN BE STRESSFUL AT

TIMES. ELIAS HAS FOUND THAT OPENING A BOOK AND SPENDING SOME

TIME READING IS INCREDIBLY THERAPEUTIC.

HE IS ABLE TO STEP AWAY FROM THE STRESSES OF LIFE AND LEARN

SOMETHING NEW, OR AT LEAST GAIN A NEW PERSPECTIVE.

ELIAS HAS ALSO FOUND THAT READING AS A HOBBY HAS IMPROVED

HIS MEMORY.

EVERYONE DEALS WITH MEMORY LOSS AS THEY AGE, SOME SOONER

THAN OTHERS.

THE HUMAN ABILITY TO RECALL DETAILED INFORMATION FROM THE

DAYS OR YEARS BEFORE BECOMES SUSPECT AS THE BRAIN AGES.

READING IS A GOOD EXERCISE FOR THE BRAIN, ALLOWING IT TO

RETAIN ITS MEMORY CAPABILITIES LONGER THROUGHOUT LIFE.

HAVING COMPLETED LAW SCHOOL HIMSELF, ELIAS HAS ALSO

DISCOVERED THAT READING HELPS HIS BRAIN TO WORK MORE

ANALYTICALLY.

EACH TIME A PERSON READS, EVEN A SHORT FICTION STORY, THE

BRAIN IS LOOKING FOR PATTERNS IN THE WRITING.

THE BRAIN ALSO TRIES TO DRAW CONCLUSIONS AND FIGURE OUT THE

PUZZLE OR ENDING BEFORE THE STORY IS OVER.

THIS EXERCISE IS AN ANALYTICAL FUNCTION THAT CAN BE EASILY

CARRIED OVER INTO A PERSON'S PROFESSIONAL LIFE.

IT IS BECAUSE OF THIS THAT GREGORY ELIAS READS JUST ABOUT

ANYTHING HE CAN GET HIS HANDS ON.
