3. Comprehension is more important than reading
Let us read books and comprehend them. Reading is a great practice that can help you become smarter, wiser, brighter, more educated and intelligent. In order to make your reading as useful and meaningful as possible, try to read books and comprehend them. Otherwise reading won’t have any point and sense! You forget only those things that you do not comprehend very well. Follow Mike Ross’ example who would never forget anything and who remembered every smallest detail of what he had ever read. His secret was that he really understood what the information meant. Understand the book as deeply as possible and you’ll see the benefits that mindful reading offers.

4. Analyze past mistakes
Making mistakes is an inevitable experience each of us has got to go through. We keep making mistakes. Luckily, some of us are smart enough to realize that we can avoid making mistakes that were once made by other people in the past. Quit inventing the bicycle – it already exists. The same applies to other things you have to face with on a daily basis. Read books and learn about other people’s mistakes and experience. Try to be wiser than others.
