What is worth remembering here?
A long read you will otherwise retain nothing from.
Read this and give me three things: the one claim, the three facts worth remembering, and the thing I will have forgotten by next week unless I write it down. Use the source's own numbers and names. Add nothing that is not in it. Text:
Making it yours
- Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
- Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
- If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.
Planning and retention. Working out the order to learn a subject in, and making it stick once you have.
