Distraction has been a most accepted problem for many to accomplish their mission. Here I wanted to share few tips to stay focussed while cultivated reading practice.

1. Take your non-favorite article - Initially, it will seem strenuous and disinterested. But appreciate the style of writing and crack the hardest nut first.

2. Just copy blindly the original text - Rewrite the article word by word while you read aloud including punctuations.

3. Record your reading practice - Record and check how you sound and re-record for the corrections.

These steps will help to accomplish and review your practices.
