Depends on you.
I read it as I go through the days. I don't want to have to remember all the details of a many paged ebook; I learn better from doing and reading in small sections helps me do this, it is easier to understand the Manifesto when applying the theory to the practical situation.
I see the Manifesto as a manual, it should be applied to a practical situation, like a car repair manual, in a way. Also, if I want an overview, I look at the flow diagrams and read a small section at a time.

I think read a bit at a time, myself I like to read the Chapter for each module when I have done the module as a kind of revision. Having said that have only done Pre and 1...
I agree with Afon and Djr. I'm making my way through Module 2 right now and find it a lot easier to read through the Manifesto as I go along. Usually I'll read the related section in the Manifesto first, then I'll read the Module introduction, and lastly I'll watch the related videos. I also like to take notes while reading/watching so that I don't forget any key points while implementing. It works a charm!

Good method, Christina, and welcome to The Challenge!
The manifesto is a great reference manual any time. It's a great way to review even after you've done the whole Challenge. Once you've completed the process, you'll see the whole thing with different eyes and the manifesto is a quick and easy way to go back and pick up details you might not have noticed before.
Thanks Dean! I'm so happy to be a part of this supportive community. The tutorial on how to use Market Samurai for researching information on your niche literally swept me off my feet! I had NO idea that Market Samurai offered so many resources!
The Manifesto has proved to be very useful throughout The Challenge as well, and I'll definitely use it for review after I've completed this course when I'm tweaking my website and even building new ones! The whole Challenge team did such great work in putting this together!
Cheers!
