1. I enjoy reading books. During public holidays or weekends, I wake up early in the morning. After prayer, I turn on the radio and sit to read. This is when Aisyah is still sleeping. My precious time!
2. I believe in saying 'you are what you eat, what you do and what you read'. Many years ago, I wonder how people manage to read such thick books, continuously. After trying 1000 times, through failures, sleepy head and sweats, I start to understand on my body and brain. Here are the tips...
3. I notice that I can watch heavy movies and understand them easily. By watching trailers and snippets before a movie, I can understand better. When I discuss the movies with friends, I can solve few other problems and see things from different perspectives. After a while, if I repeat to watch movies, it just becomes so easy to understand them.
4. The same things go to reading books. You dont have to understand every single words, as long as you are on the main track, a few wobbly paths would not hurt. Usually, I try to finish chapter by chapter.
5. Sometimes, when my eyes are tired, or when I just have few minutes of spare time, I would flip randomly to any pages and read any paragraphs. These are my trailers and snippets. So, when it comes to the chapters while reading, the trailers/snippets help a lot.
6. At work, when I am tired interpreting logs, I discuss the topics with friends (they are identified beforehand, and I value each of them for this same interest of reading). Finally, whenever I like, I reread old chapters. Thats what I do.
7. Good luck trying!
P/s: Brain/mind is just like other muscles, if you dont use them (or use seldomly), you will loose them, a.k.a. nyanyuk!
