You already own the greatest reading acceleration device that has ever been developed. It is simply your hand. People have spent thousands of dollars attempting to increase their reading speed. But no inventions or machines can do what your hand and your pacing finger can do for you to improve your reading speed -- once you've been trained in our 4 special techniques.
What do your eyes do while you are "trying" to read? If you're like most people, your eyes are jerking around, looking, searching, and bouncing here and there. Then they will fixate for a second or two and maybe move on again causing your brain to wonder what you're doing. Sound familiar? Untrained readers go through this often.
Untrained readers experience this al lot. By learning speed reading, which includes the speed-pacing movement, you'll learn how to control and then accelerate your coordination related to reading. A pacing technique, from the Evelyn Wood collection, is taught in Speed Reading in Only One Hour - and it's going to increase your reading speed 50% in less than 10 minutes.
To ensure the best results for the material you are going to be reading you must make sure the conditions around you are right before you begin. Determine exactly what you need to be able to read properly; textbooks, research material, and a hi-lighter? Remove or unplug: - Magazines, unless being used as a part of what you are going to read. - TV (except for educational programs). Stereo, radio will cause varied distractions. Turn them off. - Brothers, sisters, friends, etc. are in the way when you are reading. - Mate, spouse, lover. They easily can dissuade you from reading. - Food can break your concentration and reading pattems. - Alcohol/drugs - don't even go there. Being stoned and studying is a sure fire failure. - Cigarettes fog your thinking abilities. Nicotine is a drug. - Marijuana - don't go there either. A foggy brain is useless in an exam. - Take the phone off the hook. Put out the dog or cat. - Create a quiet reading/study space. You might want music playing; use soft, classical, meditation oriental or other forms of relaxing music. Play it very softly. This sounds pretty extreme; however, modify it for pleasure reading, early morning newspapers, or magazines.
