PROGRESS CHART OF READING

As soon as you begin to study this book, start entries in this chart.
Make at least fifty entries on as many days. It is best not to make them on successive days, inasmuch as you will not improve your reading day by day, but rather in a series of spurts at irregular intervals.

It would be best if you could manage to make an entry every second or third day for the first two months, and perhaps once every five days during the third and fourth months.
As units of measure, select:

1. The first right-hand column of the first page of your favorite newspaper.
2. The first 1,000 words of the leading article in your favorite business periodical or technical journal.
3. The first 2,000 words of any heavy business reading which you have to cover regularly in the course of your day's work.
