01 - Download the Kindle app on your iPhone. Send any book, PDF or DFE document to your Kindle app.

09 - I do this Monday to Friday and then read over my journal at the weekend. #readersmakeleaders

10 - you can also use it to read out blogs which is useful as well.

06 - leave a note pad where you are working so that you can journal any pertinent information you hear.

05- this will allow your phone to speak out any book or document. Many of the new education books are not on Audible so this is a free way around it. I can get through a book in a few days. Set the speed of the voice to x0.90 and it works a dream.

08 - I normally do 1 hour each night after we have put our kids to bed. I am averaging a book every 4-5 days.

02 - Go to accessibility in your iPhone’s settings. Click on spoken content (circled red below).

04 - open your Kindle app and the book/document you want to hear it speak out. Click play and off you go!

07 - use wireless earphones so that you can get on with other business or work.

03 - click speak screen.
