Doing the homework and proving you did it are two different jobs, and most people only do the first one. Larry’s PQRST checklist exists for exactly this gap: Preview, Question, Read, Summarize, Test, in that order, before you walk into the room. Preview means you skimmed the whole thing first so you know the shape of it, not just the first chapter.
Question means you show up with your fuzzy points already flagged, not discovered live in front of the mentor. Read is the actual work, no shortcuts, because a mentor can tell in one sentence who skipped it. Summarize means you can say back what mattered in your own words, not repeat their own language at them.
Test is the part people skip, actually trying the idea before claiming you understand it. Proof looks like a specific example, a number, or a result, not a sentence that starts with ‘I read your stuff.’
Larry says he would rather meet someone who tested one idea badly than someone who read everything and tried nothing. A mentor’s time is the scarce resource, so proof of homework is what earns more of it.
This is the same discipline SuperModel asks for in the room: notes in hand, prepared, not performing. Do the homework quietly, then let the proof do the talking when you finally get the meeting.
