Reading actively means to keep track of what your reading and making sure it makes sense by taking notes and jotting down ideas.

As you read actively more often, I think it will be easier for you to keep track and you will have to write less down.

To become a better active reader, I will have to read more often and keep up so I make sure I'm at the level I'm supposed to be at. Everytime I choose a new book I will choose higher level stuff than the last book i read.
