Key takeaways
- Pick one topic per block. A block with two topics usually finishes neither.
- Spend 5 minutes reading, 15 answering questions, and 10 reviewing mistakes.
- Finish with a two-line summary in your own words - without copying from your notes.
- Same time, same place, every day. Consistency matters more than length.
- Two or three solid blocks a day beat a five-hour weekend session you cannot repeat.
