Summarize this article:

No matter how boring a book may seem in the moment, there's always something that makes it worth reading. Remember that any published piece of writing was deemed to be important, interesting, and well-written by someone who professionally edits books, so if you haven't found that payoff yet it's still ahead somewhere.  The payoff is coming at some point. It may not arrive until the end or near the end, but there is almost always a payoff at some point. Whether it's the thrill you experience when the action finally delivers a plot twist, the new knowledge you'll take away from the book, or the realization that the book was actually about something much deeper than you'd realized all along, there's definitely something to be gained by finishing the book. If you don't finish the book, you may never know why so many people consider it a classic. Not finishing a book is essentially a waste of money. This may not be a problem if you borrowed the book from a friend or through your local library, but if you purchased that book you're missing out on a return for your investment.  If you bought the book, you may have invested $10 to $20 in that book (possibly more if it's a hard-cover copy). If you only read the first few chapters of the book, you effectively wasted most of the money you spent on it. Try to think about the book as any other form of entertainment. You wouldn't buy tickets to a play or a sports game and leave after 10 minutes, so why do the equivalent with a book? Even if it's not a waste of money, and you are reading if for school, think of the consequences it will have on your grade if you don't read it. Working through a boring book has its rewards, and those rewards extend beyond the satisfaction of finishing the text. Think of it as training for adulthood and an exercise in maturity or self-discipline.  Think of getting through a boring book as training for life. There will be times in life when you have to do something unenjoyable. If you decided that you didn't feel like finishing your work assignments at your place of employment, you'd be fired pretty quickly. If you don't do the assignments you're given in school, your grades will suffer. If you're really struggling to finish a book, try giving yourself some kind of tangible incentive. Reward yourself with something you like at the end, or withhold something you like from yourself until you finish the book.  Having an enjoyable reward in sight might be the "carrot on the stick" you need to keep working until you reach the end. You might decide that when you finish the book you will treat yourself to a nice dinner, an ice cream treat, or a fancy bottle of wine (if you're old enough to drink). You may also want to try withholding certain unnecessary treats/perks from yourself until you finish. For example, you may decide not to have any dessert foods until you finish the book.

Summary:
Know that there's always a payoff. Think about how much money you'd waste by not finishing. Try to learn dedication as a life skill. Give yourself a reward when you finish.
