Before starting reading a book open up your mind by asking question. Make reading a search for answers to these questions. This will greatly increase comprehension, This requires a bit of humility. It admits that I don't have all the answers. This is the basic requirement for all learning. It is a hunger for wisdom. This hunger is the prerequisite to all of learning. It opens up the mind so that it is looking for answers. Pride does just the opposite. It closes the mind to new information. True humility admits that you have not yet arrived. That you have room to grow. That you could be wrong in some of your views.
It is with this awareness of one's own frailty that one will eventuality become wise.
