micro tips
Read faster (without losing meaning)

Skim headings and summaries to build a mental map.
One question
Ask: “What decision will this help me make?”
2-minute notes
Write only what you’d tell a friend.
Dopamine loop
End sessions mid-paragraph—restart feels easy.
These are user-friendly “psychology” tactics (clarity + momentum), not manipulation.
quote
“Clarity is a superpower—books are how you build it.”
Save it, share it, live it.
micro story
You open one chapter “just to peek.” Twenty minutes later, you’ve underlined three lines you’ll use tomorrow. That’s why today’s pick works so well as a daily ritual.
Pair today’s reading with coffee and a 10-minute timer.
joke

Humor boosts recall—yes, really.
