I have 2 main books Im trying to study right now. "My Great Predecessors" by G. Kaaparov and "Techniques of Positional Play" by V. Bronzik & A. Terekhin, how do you study the books? Do you just read them, go through the moves on the board, stop in each move, analyse it, or do you write down what you learn, etc...?

I have the physical books, I also try to play the moves out on the board and try to se sub-variations in my mind to improve visualization, but its hard to grasp what I should try to learn from them, specially Kasparov's book

I didn't try Visualization. Very difficult. What you must learn is understand chess position. Equal, white slightly better, white is superior? Chess Informants teach this using Chess Informants symbols. At first, it's difficult without verbal language. After analyzing a dozen games, the Brain gets tuned.
