A moment of Insight

A moment of Insight

What makes a great start to a day is a cup of coffee and the newspaper. Reading thousands of words is like opening a stream of thoughts through my brain, leaving behind an impression... and soon the rest is forgotten.

Suddenly I realise, in a moment of insight, if I could have the discipline to focus on quality rather than quality, would I not have learnt more? If I could read one good article a 100 times, dissect it, analyse it to its bone, and reproduce it to memory, would I not have learnt more than reading a 100 articles once?

Instead of learning 10 words a day, would it not be greater if I simply learn 1 word a day and write it a 100 times unless it is commited to memory forever?
