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
“Consistency beats intensity—especially with learning.”
Save it, share it, live it.
micro story
A quiet morning. A noisy world. One page that makes the day feel solvable again. That’s the secret: small inputs, compounding output.
Pair today’s reading with coffee and a 10-minute timer.
joke
Debugging is like being the detective in a crime movie where you’re also the murderer.
Humor boosts recall—yes, really.
