Lazy Reading

This post is place-holder for a forthcoming post about lazy reading. I have come to realize that reading with the intent to find answers to questions is akin to practicing saxophone with poor form, or lifting weights with too much weight or with improper position. Some texts do provide answers to questions, but these texts are reference texts. These are the only texts that should be read lazily. All other texts are mere suggestions, theories about the way a particular problem or situation could be approached. Consequently, correct reading requires thinking. Incorrect reading involves, "wait, I don't understand, what does the author mean?" The proper response to confusing text is, "This author has incorrectly worded this sentence, thereby depriving it of any meaning. If the author means ____, then it should have been worded like this:_______." Otherwise, reading is extremely boring and retention is darn-near impossible.
