Are you often surprised by a person's behavior after talking to him? Do you always ask questions thinking, "Is this pretty obvious in retrospect"? Do you feel like you're missing the details? Then pay attention to the small details. Human habits or the choice of words in an article can convey a lot of information on the subject in question.
Steps
Step 1. Take your time to observe
Don't draw conclusions too quickly. It will get easier with time.
Step 2. Go for a walk in the park and pay attention to what happens
If you see a dog, observe what it does. Ask yourself why it does this. Even if it is a simple action. If he runs for a ball or a wooden stick, is he doing it for fun? What about hunter instincts? Do you respect the master? Is he lazy or lively? Why is he lazy or lively? Observe the owner and his appearance.
Step 3. Read an article, online or in a newspaper
Pay attention to the words. Is it written in Italian? Do you use common expressions from any particular region? Are there any words written in dialect? Or some foreign words? Is it written in a formal way? Remember these words or write them down. When he has finished reading, look up those words in a dictionary, discover the meaning, etymologies, synonyms and uses. Also check Wikipedia where there are often famous people or buildings or world cultural events.
Step 4. The next day when you wake up, think again
Your brain has had time to process and store information. Do you remember what the owner of the dog wore in the park? What do you remember from the article you read? Try writing what you remember.
