Speed Reading in One Hour: Understanding the Mechanics
The mind is an extraordinarily power in which we only use a very small portion. In this course, “Speed Reading in only One Hour” I will show you how to tap some of that unused power and use it for your personal success in high school, college, and life.
Your brain and mind are capable of understanding from 10,000 to 50,000 units of information every minute; one unit being equal to one word. This information is based upon somewhat old statistics (1980′s). Based on new speed reading technology, as well as strides in brain and mind development, you can probably achieve greater phenomenal reading speeds.
The average high school graduate, when tested, reads about 250 words per minute. The college student reads at about 300 words per minute. But, no matter what your beginning reading speed, don’t worry, it is only the beginning. Imagine what an advantage you will have to be able to read over 100% faster than you had before; 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 through smell. It is a mental sensation (unconsciously or consciously) through thought. And lastly there is a physical sensation through eating, swallowing, and smiling. To summarize the PIZZA adventure: Brain and mind is where the “action” is taking place. Body is where the “reaction” is taking place.
The brain and the mind hold enormous untapped potential; I’m going to help you tap into that potential through Speed Reading in One Hour, available at www.speedread.org, and I’ll show you how you can succeed in your college life and beyond.
