if you've ever read a page in a book got
to the end and just forgot what you just
read your mind wanders get easily
distracted here's why when you read
something you feed this incredible super
computer of a brain
one
[Music]
word at
a
time metaphorically you're starving your
mind and if you don't give your brain
the stimulus it needs it'll seek
entertainment elsewhere in the form of
distraction in the form of mind
wandering the biggest myth
and lie about speed reading and i think
is spread around by slow readers is that
if you read faster your comprehension
would what you feel like it would go
down but it's not true the truth is the
faster readers tend to have better
comprehension because they have better
focus reading slow is kind of like
riding a bicycle slow you wobble and
then you fall but here's the secret if
you want better comprehension while you
read read faster because it's like
driving a car if you're driving a car
going slow through traffic you're not
really focused on driving you're doing
five different things you're drinking
your coffee you're texting even though
you know you shouldn't you're putting on
makeup i saw someone the other day
shaving you're doing five different
things but if you're racing cars and
you're taking hairpin turns as fast as
you go do you have more or less focus
the answer is obvious you're focused on
what on the act of driving and on what's
in front of you that's exactly what it's
like for reading when you're reading
faster you focus on the act of reading
and what's in front of you if you want
to maximize not only your speed and have
greater comprehension while you read i
want to invite you to a very special
master class put on by mindvalley where
i'm going to share with you and crack
the code of the secret how to read
faster but not just speed smart reading
how to read with better focus
understanding and retention we invite
you in this master class i'll see you on
the inside
