Jul 25	comment	How to prevent oneself from lounging around in bed, instead of getting out of it and starting the day? Unfortunately for me, the advice in the article worked. However, I would only advice it to people who can get to bed early enough most of the time. It turned out to be very difficult to undo the automatic wake up if you want to, eg because you need more sleep.
Jul 14	comment	How can I improve reading speed and comprehension? Does it work? This may vary from person to person, looking at studies or experience reports would be needed to really verify this. Dit it work for me? I have only started to apply some of the techniques described in Tony Buzan's speed reading book. Note that they are similar techniques than @DmitrySelitskiy mentioned. Reading speed: yes, I see definite improvements. Reading comprehension: this is unclear, I need more speed reading practice to give you feedback on this. For now, a lot of information does not require the highest level of comprehension. Retention: mind maps helps here
