Give Yourself a Reason to Read Stick that reason firmly in your mind, and think of nothing other than the content of the book. You have to be interested.
Rest Periodically Reading straight through a book does have the “benefit of the flow” Try stopping at the end of each chapter for a rest. Then, you get a chance to really think about the text. When you come back to the text, you will be even more focus.

draw up a time-table . Start your day with your most important job. End your day with something fun. put in the rest of the things you want to do. Do not overload yourself . whenever you feel like you can’t concentrate
anymore, just take a break .
