I do try to read 25 pages a day, and I consider 100 pages an almost unreasonable goal. The main key to success is that you focus on the process, rather than the result. This means you should build the habit to read (or whatever you goal is) rather than reaching some specific goal. (you also need to waste less time on the internet and social media).
I would suggest that you keep a list of the books you read over the long term. Inspired by a friend, I started this in 2011 and and almost immediately wished I had begin this practice as a teenager. The list just contains the title, author, and the date I finished the book.
The statistics have been surprising and the trend has been gratifying. In the fist four years I read just over 35 books per year, and in the past eight this has increased in an average over over 60 per year. I don't feel I read excessively, it's mostly in the evenings, on vacations, and while traveling.
