Alex,
That quote you shared is brilliant! That was precisely my experience today! I'm often left feeling I missed something, so I'd back up and slow down to discover that I found something significant!
I've been photoreading all my required readings for each class, and I'm not sure I still agree with the 4-11%. I'm taking philosophy courses and there's just tons of material for me to go through. I know when to skip certain details/examples, but there are times when I need to know the details/examples.
Because the material isn't too easy, I've been Photoreading the required readings for each class as opposed to doing entire books at a time. It seems to be far more managable. Plus it's helping me get better aquainted with the system even though I've been using it for quite some time.
I treat each section or chapter like an article. Articles always seemed much more readable and less daunting than books. So I think this is helping me overall. I'm quite happy that I'm saving a lot of time.
