How to not daydream while reading?

Hopefully, you will be reading something interesting.
And if it isn’t, make it interesting. Make up something that won’t hurt your understanding, e.g. this boring poet is really a superhero in disguise (yeah, it’s corny, but you get the idea).

You can also start reading books/comics/magazines you like. That will get your brain to go throw the motions of focusing while reading. Then when you come to something incredibly boring, your brain will automatically go through the reading motions. It will be easier to read boring stuff.

At least, that’s what I did, and it worked. I got 690.
