ACCELERATION THROUGH PACING:

Hand movements can cause improvement of reading speed. Now I’ll introduce to you the well-known pacing movement. It uses your index finger of your dominant hand, i.e. right handed use right hand, to scan a line by running your finger under the type you are reading. Always turn the page with the unused, non-dominant hand. Don’t move your head, keep it still.

It’s simple. Just replace all your bad reading habits with one easily learned one: You’ll use your pacing hand. It breaks each of these habits automatically while it increases your reading speed.

The basic pacing movement utilizes the index finger of your dominant hand, i.e. right handed use right hand, to scan a line by running your finger under the type you are reading. Turn the page with the unused, non-dominant hand. Never move your head when reading, keep it still.

The method is easy. You’ll replace all your bad habits with one easily learned one: You’ll use your pacing hand. Here’s how to break each of these habits automatically while increasing your reading speed.

You’ll read without sub-vocalizing, hearing it your mind.

To understand this concept, you must understand that your nemesis “The Babbler” is reading to you in silent speech and then it goes into your brain. We did experiments in Hawaii, New Mexico, Florida, and elsewhere. It appears that those with the slowest speaking rates have naturally slow reading rates. With this method, your speaking rate will no longer limit your reading speed. You can read as fast as you can think. What I am saying is you can read as fast as your mind can work.

Here’s the method to begin pacing across a line faster than you can form the sounds in your throat:

Extend your index finger, close all others.

You’ll be reading twice as fast as you ever have. You’ll retain valuable information and increase your comprehension and improve your grades.

Speed Reading in Only One Hour – Understanding the Mechanics

Jan 19th, 2010 Posted in Marketing | no comment »

The human mind is an extraordinary force of which we only use a very small portion. In this book, “Speed Reading in only One Hour” I will demonstrate how to tap some of that unused power and use it for your own success in high school, college, and life.

Your brain is capable of understanding from 10,000 – 50,000 units of data per minute; one unit equals one word. This information is based upon old statistics (1980′s). Based on recently developed speed reading technology, and strides in brain and mind development, you can achieve even greater reading speeds.

In the US the average HS grad, when tested, reads about 250 words per minute. The average US college student reads at an average of about 300 words per minute. But, no matter what your starting reading speed when you are tested, don’t worry, it is only the beginning. Can you imagine what an advantage you will have to be able to read over 100% faster than you had before? 200% 300% — The possibilities are limitless.

We receive information through our five physical senses, (touching, tasting, hearing, smelling, and seeing) and by those we make decisions. We make choices and judgments from the factors that our physical senses bring into play. The five physical senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, touch) are preprogrammed for automatic reaction.

We learn, not only from physical senses, but through various forms of thought. Most thought is conscious in nature. Senses however work automatically. An example of an automatic reaction might be: when a hungry teenager smells pizza, he or she begins salivating. What’s taking place is that the sense of smell (called olfactory senses) has automatically delivered a thought, “PIZZA”, to the brain and mind. The thought may be unconscious.

Sensing food is a physical sensation of your sense smell. It is a mental sensation (unconsciously or consciously) through thinking. And finally, there tends to be a physical sensation by eating, swallowing, and smiling. To summarize the PIZZA experience: Brain and mind is where the “action” is — and your body is where the “reaction” is.

The brain and the mind hold enormous untapped potential; We’re going to help you tap into that potential through Speed Reading in One Hour, available at www.speedread.org, and we’ll show you how you can succeed in your college life and beyond.
