1. Pre-read
    1. Skim the table of contents, the summaries at the end of each chapter. Doing this before reading helps prime your brain and you will retain more of what you read as you go through the text.
  2. Highlighting
    1. Read the text before you mark it. This also helps you to not highlight too much.
  3. Take Notes after you read
    1. Capture the most important details after you read.
  4. Summarize what you read
  5. Mix reading with doing (for practical skills)
  6. After taking in a bunch of new information take a break and do something else. That information needs time to marinate.
