How Do You Speed Read - My Knowledge about Speed
                     Reading




                    How Do You Speed Read
A pal recently talked about basically had ever tried speed reading. He,
like most book people I realize, is bowing underneath the weight of the
books he wants to read, and the crushing knowledge that we’ll never
be able to every one of them. A few years ago I'd seen an infomercial of
some bald guy reading books while zipping his finger across the pages,
which he was apparently reading you'd like he could turn them. There
was clearly definitely something attracting me. I wondered if it actually
worked.

Like most a few things i question, I ended up adopting the goal of
reading faster for the following year. I purchased a novel referred to as
Evelyn Wood Seven-Day Speed Reading and Learning Program at the
local bookstore. It turned out also within the bargain bin while using
remainders, but I didn’t allow that to stop me. $4.67 or so later, I used
to be in the home trying to place the method into practice.

Have you ever wondered about speed reading and be it for you, I’d like
you to look at a moment and merely consider a couple of questions.
Easily was starting again I would ask myself:

Why do I read?

What kinds of books will i read?

I’ll take every one of those questions and respond when i mention my
experience with the Evelyn Wood method.

Why Must I Read?

Jeez, the place to start? Someone said because my parents read to me
before I used to be even born. Because I was raised within the wild by
feral librarians. Because I love to learn. Because I must are more curious
every day. Because we’ve questions. Because sometimes I have to
escape into some ridiculous vampire story. Because it’s fun. Because I
admire good writing. Because it's section of who I'm. Because I couldn’t
stop basically wanted to. Etc.

The question I could have asked prior to starting this program is: Would
reading faster detract or diminish these reasons?

What form of books do I read?

If you’ve been after this blog for even a day you’ve probably pointed
out that I’m everywhere. I write compulsively in accordance with
moods and intuitions, without a lot of shown to why We are doing it.
I’m much the same way in my range of books. I let myself get blown
around by whims and happy accidents. I just read what people
recommend in my opinion. I just read books I chance upon in the office.
I read books from booklists that I’m attempting to check off.

Fiction, non-fiction, science, history, religion, trashy novels and literary
masterpieces, comic books…you have the image.

Basically would start the strategy again, I'd personally have asked
myself if reading any particular subjects quicker would make them less
pleasurable or instructive.

How Do You Speed Read?

There is a couple of answer here, but first, another question to suit
your needs: if you slow inside your reading, can you explain that? Can it
be fatigue? An ability to concentrate? Have you been easily
sidetracked?

Therefore the first answer is–you’ll be capable of read faster should you
cut out what you already know slowly you down.

Reading more rapidly is simply matter of eating more details
immediately. Up your eyes make fewer stops per page, per paragraph,
and per sentence. This can be one of many primary items that all
speed-reading books I have read have in keeping. They encourage one
to discover how to read 2 or 3 words immediately, visually scanning
blocks of text and learning to take in a lot more at the same time.

Essential is remaining on course. As well as seen the bald guy reading
fast with his finger? Evelyn Wood also says get a finger and ensure that
it stays moving in various patterns for the page that will aid the eyes
track, and help keep you on pace.

A very important factor I discovered worth it to read was the thought
that eliminating the inner voice that reads along with you–in the event
you “hear” the words in your mind as you read silently, that’s a few
things i mean–can speed things up to suit your needs. Once i devoted
to that, I did so discover that I hear my very own voice inside my head
when I would read.

The thought is when you’re hearing this voice; you can only read as
quickly as it is possible to speak. If you make the experience of reading
primarily a visual one–without losing reading comprehension–then
you're only limited by the interest rate from which your lovely eyes can
flit across the page.

Does it work?

I invest some serious time with the Wood method. It works. One can
learn to read many, additional words per minute than you are able to at
this time.

But I gave it down as a result of two questions I asked up above. Speed
reading is well-suited to some books and subjects. Others never. Why?
Because you’re reading in the speed of sunshine and also the point is
not to slow down.

Only was reading a novel of philosphy and ran into a deep concept that
deserved greater examination, or suddenly saw three words inside a
sentence that I couldn’t define, the alternatives are:
Keep your pace, don’t ponder, forget those stupid words, they suck
anyways

Slow down and do “normal” reading

I ran in the same issue after I was reading something I want to to take
pleasure from to the lyrical qualities from the writing. If you have not a
clue what which means, flip offered to any page of Sophie’s Choice and
continue to savor the way the words work together at ludicrous speed.

If I planned to write a piece of writing about banned books and I had to
do serious research, I could never undertake it during this pace, and so
the infomercial’s promises to getting your textbooks read in Around 10
secs approximately wouldn’t have worked for me at all. And so on that
note, I couldn’t have discovered any math or science using this method
either. Those are difficult reads to me under any circumstances and
things only start to make sense to me with multiple, slooooow
readings.

It worked best with me for entertainment, easy novels. Easily was
reading purely for story, I could blast through a 300 page fluff read and
pick up every one of the relevant plot points and have an image of the
paper-thin characters. But I could get almost all of that from reading
the dust jacket.

To ensure that is the verdict for now, from me: it works, but I don’t
much like the connection with reading that quickly. Although I would
like to read as many books as possible, I wish to enjoy as much as
possible, whenever possible.
