micro tips
Read faster (without losing meaning)
Preview first
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
“Small steps, taken daily, turn into giant leaps.”
Save it, share it, live it.
micro story
You read a paragraph, then pause—not because it’s hard, but because it’s useful. That’s how learning becomes identity—not homework.
Pair today’s reading with coffee and a 10-minute timer.
joke
I told my book I needed space… so it gave me more pages.
Humor boosts recall—yes, really.
