Who First Created Speed Reading?

Written by Dr. Jay Polmar on February 9, 2010 – 2:09 am

The worlds most famous speed reading course is Reading Dynamics developed by Evelyn Wood. It’s famous for teaching people to read faster, or speed reading as she called it. Her live course was the first known course that taught students to read faster and it started with about 25 hours of training to double your reading speed.

Over time the method was made available all over the world. These well practiced techniques teach students to read more rapidly, and also comprehend more of what they are reading. These techniques have proven to be repeatedly effective with all ages in many countries around the world.

There are many stories about how Evelyn Wood first learned speed reading. My personal favorite was that she, as a child, was fishing at a nearby lake in Utah where she was living. To Evelyn, fishing was a relaxing necessity, but her mind was always active.

When fishing, she brought a book to read until she saw that the float on the fishing line was bobbing. Then she’d reel in the fish. It was said that she read with the sun at her back for natural light, and used her index finger on her dominant hand to track under the words she was reading.

Speed Reading Gives More Time To Life

Written by Dr. Jay Polmar on February 6, 2010 – 2:30 am

The world is dominated by life-long learners: the people who take the time to learn everything they can about their chosen field and everything they can about corresponding subjects. The 400 most successful businesspeople “the Forbes 400″ attribute most of their success to reading at least one non-fiction book a month. But, when you have a family and work wants to dominate your time, carving out the time to read all those books can be difficult. New books on every subject are being published every day. How is one supposed to keep up at work or school, spend time with family, and find time to read ten to fifteen extra books a year?

You just can’t add hours to your day, but you can reduce the time it takes to read those books. Learning to speed read is the answer. Cutting your reading time in half or even more would give you the ability to simply devour the books you always wanted to read, the books you know you should read, and the ones you need to read to get ahead.

Double Reading Speed in 11 Minutes – Cost $20

Written by Dr. Jay Polmar on February 3, 2010 – 3:14 am

I am sure you know how to read, after all you are reading this article. But just how long will it take you to read this short article. 2 minutes, 5 minutes, longer. Did you know that for twenty bucks, and just 11 minutes of your time you can change your life in ways you never imagined — all by reading. It takes just 11 minutes to hear how Dr. Jay Polmar learned to read fast, and you’ll learn 3 secrets to improving your life through by reading.

Wise people already know what I am talking about – learning how to use your brain properly so that what you read becomes usable data, and knowledge to help you create greater success in life.

Really, the more you read of a similar subject, the faster you read that subject. The faster you read the subject that you are familiar with, the more that it becomes a part of your long-term memory. That’s why when you first study basic primary school math, and you follow it and study smart, and go all the way through college – math is a thing that you become accustomed to. If you’ve studied really smart, it’s really easy, and you can do some of it in your head without calculator or paper and pen.

Is Success Killing Your Dreams?

Written by funker on January 30, 2010 – 3:21 pm

Is Success Killing Your Dreams?
“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men”
Proverbs 18:16

How do you differentiate between your gift and your talents or skills?
Gift – 1) something you have a true passion for and could do 24/7 with or without reward or recognition. 2) the thought of never doing “this” makes you sad/depressed and you can’t imagine “this” not being a part of your life.

Talent – 1) you do this because you can 2) you have to be rewarded/compensated/recognized for it 3) if you do it, cool. If you don’t, you wouldn’t miss it.

Your talents are an illusion and can create a perception of truth. Also, your talents can be “dated”. You may possess a skill set that is in demand today and you can not give it away tomorrow. But your gift flows from you and through you effortlessly and never dries up, fade away, runs out, or ends. (”For the gifts and the calling of GOD are irrevocable”) Romans 11:29 (NKJV)

It’s time for all of us to LIVE and not just exist. Everything you need is already in you. (”You are already full! You are already rich!…”) 1 Corinthians 4:8 (NKJV)

Believe

Written by Dr. Jay Polmar on January 25, 2010 – 2:48 am

Beliefs determine how we see, interact and experience the world around us. Beliefs are ideas that are made after repetition and contemplation, that are accepted as truth and reality and therefore impact how we see life.

Belief and knowledge are often in conflict. The difference might be subtle, but substantial. Knowledge is something that you and others, who might be considered experts in that field, consider to be true and there is reasonable, plausible, and provable scientific explanation for that knowledge.

A belief on the other hand is founded on personal experience or only on faith.

Too many people require you to accept their belief based on blind faith. Belief is not a fact and therefore usually not provable beyond a shadow of a down.

Recall that it wasn’t long ago that people believed the world is flat, and that we thought women were witches, hunted them down, and burned them.

Welcome to belief, which is based on superstitious people, or ignorance.

Ignorant humans who once believed that the Earth was the center of the universe, and that it was flat. Really demonstrated that what really was FLAT was the human ability to think outside the box and perceive something that others could not observe.
