8. Super Reading (Speed Reading)
I know reading can be tedious especially when you have to read volumes of
books, hundreds/thousands of emails, blogs, letters and reports to get whatever
information you might need. Can you imagine how much time you would use? I
know that you would want to do it much faster so that you have time to do other
things or read even more.
Most of our reading speed is appalling. For instance, you could be the kind of
person who has to say every word in your mind, which means that your reading
speed is almost at par with your speech, which is between 120-200 words per
minute. Obviously, this speed won’t make you read through piles of books and
other reading material within a short time. This doesn’t mean that you can never
learn how to read faster. In fact, you can train yourself to read 25,000 words
every minute. I know that is impressive because you can read at lightning speeds
with high level of comprehension. So, how do you start reading faster? Before
you begin, it is important to note that learning to speed read takes time; you
shouldn’t be expecting to move from reading 150 words per minute to 2000
words per minute in a day or two! As you get started, you should know that you
should stop reading with your inner voice and start reading with your eyes.
Before you get started, you should avoid keep in mind that you have to stop
some of the bad reading habits that you may be having presently. Here are a few
of them:
#1: Regression
Regression happens when you have to look back over text that you have already
read. Most of us do this just to re-read the word so that we can get a clearer
meaning. The truth is that this wastes time and makes you a slow reader whether
you are re-reading a familiar phrase or unfamiliar one. You can stop regression
by covering the text that you have read so that you won’t feel the temptation to
re-read it. You can also use software that display a single word or sentence at a
time.
#2 Sub vocalization
This is where you read every word as though you are speaking to someone. This
makes your reading speed to match your speaking speed, which means that you
9. really cannot read volumes of books with that habit because you are a slow
reader. Ending sub vocalization comes with practice and discipline. You can
start creating pictures of what you are reading as opposed to seeing them as
individual texts. In any case, do you hear words when someone speaks to you
about his or her mansion or do you picture how the mansion looks like during
the conversation? You should also learn to keep your mouth busy so that you can
stop focusing too much on speaking what you are reading. Another important tip
for dealing with sub vocalization is to concentrate 100% when reading.
#3 Slow fixation rate
If you have to move your eyes from one word to the next, you really cannot read
much faster. Actually, do you know that you are likely to be slow when reading
complex text than simple ones because your fixation rate is considerably low? If
you fixate on one word at a time, your average reading speed will be the time
you spend fixating multiplied by the total time. So, if you want to read faster,
you have to work towards ensuring that the fixation rate is as low as possible.
You can deal with fixation problems through expanding your vocabulary and
familiarizing yourself with the subject matter. You can also start using photo-
reading technique to increase your reading speed.
Now that you know what you shouldn’t be doing when reading, let’s get started
on the techniques you should adopt in order to start reading through text at
impressive speeds.
10. Skimming
Skimming involves visually searching the sentences of a page for clues to
meaning. Although this technique will come naturally for some people, it can
also be an acquired practice. Most of those who practice skimming are adults
who are simply trying to get some information about a subject matter; you really
cannot use this technique to prepare for an exam! Adults seem to be more
interested in knowing general content in a text as opposed to gaining deeper
understanding or for mere entertainment.
When you use skimming, you can start reading up to 700 – 800 words per
minute, which is really impressive compared to the normal reading speed, which
stands at about 200 to 230 words per minute.
You can do this through reading the first and last paragraphs and then reading all
the last sentences of all paragraphs. As you master how to skim, you have to
understand how the text is organized given that different authors or writers
structure their content differently. For enhanced comprehension, you should read
the text in detail so that you are aware of the general information in the text.
Skimming is best suited for reading non-fiction material since all you have to do
is to go through the headings, and first paragraphs and sentences. Many people
may easily confuse skimming text for scanning. Let’s take a look at what
scanning is to eliminate the confusion.
11. Scanning
Scanning entails reading through text just to look for specific information; you
could even read an entire book just to look for specific points. This is unlike
skimming where your goal is to get a general idea of what the content is all
about. For instance, you could scan a book to look for specific information such
as the middle name of a certain character in the book or the day when a certain
event took place. Although almost everyone can scan, it is important to know
how to scan effectively. Here are the steps on how to go about it: Understand the
structure of whatever content you are reading to make it easy to locate what you
are looking for. This will save you lots of time that you would use going through
each page or paragraph. The structure can be such that the text is arranged in
paragraphs, chapters, headings, chronologically, alphabetically or any other
format. The best way to go about it is to run your finger on the text and follow it
just to ensure that you don’t regress. Keep in mind that the more you do it, the
better you will become at it.
14. Rapid Serial Visualizations (Software guided speed-
reading)
This is a more recent technique of speed-reading. Rapid serial visualization is in
digital format, and more and more apps are being built to aid you in your quest
for learning speed-reading. In this particular technique, you will read through a
screen as opposed to text written on a page. You will have single words flash
across the screen so your eyes focus on one word only. You will only read one
word at a time. You can start with a much slower pace to get your mind used to
it. When it adapts, you can increase the speed of the words on the screen
meaning your reading speed increases.
When you use rapid serial visualization to help you in reading, you will be able
to build focus and mental alertness, which are key requirements for you to
achieve reading fast. Rapid serial visualization is made possible through
different applications, which have been specially designed for making speed
reading easy. Here are a few of them to get you started:
Spreed
Spreed is chrome extension that flashes words on your screen for you to read. It
is just like the normal way you access the web only that its aim is to enhance
your reading. You select the text you want from a web page just as you normally
would. Once selected, spreed starts flashing the entire text word by word. That
way, you read more words in a lesser time.
OpenSpritz
Open spritz addresses the issue of space consumed by traditional reading
materials. This includes saving on space otherwise occupied by screen or books
occupying the table space and shelves. Most reading programs address this by
resizing the size of the text so that it takes up lesser space than normal. Small
sized text can be quite frustrating and uncomfortable to read.
To address these issues, spritz offers compact text streaming where words are
flashed one at a time ensuring you don’t strain over a large chunk of small font
text. By flashing one word at a time the software doesn’t have limitation in terms
of space therefore the text will be as large as you are comfortable reading. With
this software, you also won’t have to move your eyes across the page as you
read, which would be the case with a large chunk of information.
With open spritz software, one letter of each word flashed across the screen is
highlighted to make you focus and maintain a constant eye position. This
18. Memorization (Increasing Memory
Ability)
Memorization is the deliberate mental process undertaken to store information in
the memory for later remembrance; it can be bible verses, pictures, movies,
music, people’s names, or stories.
Your brain in itself never loses information that it receives; it has the capacity to
store it all. When you forget things, it means that your brain failed to store the
information properly in the first place, which means that such information
cannot be retrieved. It could also mean that your brain doesn’t have the ability to
retrieve information, which means that you cannot remember what you want and
when you want. Forgetfulness could also mean that there was failure to store that
particular information appropriately for easy retrieval making it hard to
remember that information.
We all know how important it is to remember different types of information in
our life. So, we won’t go into details about that. However, few of us know how
they can actually eliminate or at least reduce forgetfulness. Let’s discuss some of
the most effective memorization techniques you can use to increase your
memory ability.
20. Mnemonic
A mnemonic is a learning technique that aids with information retention. It
makes both learning and memorization easier. The main aim of using a
mnemonic is to translate information into a form that the brain can retain better.
Research shows that the most simple and creative mnemonics are the ones that
are most effective in aiding memorization.
In this memorization technique, you will use a special word or poem to
remember particularly longer lists. Mnemonic generally relies on easy to
remember constructs that can be linked back to the data meant for remembrance.
You could use this technique to remember the colors of the rainbow in order or
the planets in the galaxy. These two contain many subjects, which can be quite
difficult to remember especially in the order in which they exist. To remember
these, you can compose a song or a poem consisting of the first letter of each
subject and each time you recite it, you write down these subjects in their order.
The human mind is likely to remember that interesting poem or special word as
opposed to memorizing the nine planets of the galaxy!
There are several types of mnemonics and they include the following:-
#1 Mnemonic link system (story method)
This involves forming a poem or a song or a creative sentence using the first
letters of the words in the list. It makes it more interesting and simpler to
remember as opposed to the actual contents of the list. Apart from the creative
sentences, you will also incorporate visualization, which is a great way of
making you remember easily. You can create an association between the
contents and the creative story. As you do this, create a visualization that helps
in linking each element of the list. Each time you recite or tell the story, you can
easily retrieve the actual list that you intend to remember.
The problem with this method is that if you forget any element in the list, you
might end up forgetting everything else. It might also be tedious if you have to
remember a considerably long list. That’s why the peg system comes in:
#2 Peg system
This mnemonic method is majorly used for remembering longer lists. First, you
pre memorize a list of words and classify elements that associate with the
numbers they represent. These words form a peg. You can use peg lists created
from letters or rhymes since they are much simpler to learn and memorize.
#3 Major system
21. This technique is majorly used in memorizing lists comprising of numbers. You
first take the numbers in the list and change them into consonant sounds. A long
list of consonants can be quite challenging to master so you add vowels in
between them where necessary so that the relevant group become actual words.
This technique makes it easier and simpler to remember the numbers as words
tend to stick in your mind better.
#4 Loci system
This method uses visualization to organize and recall information. It makes the
whole process of memorizing easier and more interesting. Items to be
remembered in this list are each associated with a specific location.
The loci system relies on memorized spatial relationships to create some sort of
order and recollect the information stored in your memory. As you learn this
method, you will be required to memorize the exact layout of specific buildings
or the arrangement of shops, which is composed of a number of discrete loci that
you want to associate with the elements of a list.
You check through each loci and commit what it is you want to remember to the
specific existing feature; it could be a building or whatever it is you choose.
When you have mastered the exact specification of the feature you have attached
to the list, it makes it easier when you are trying to recall. You simply walk
through or next to the locus and allow the previous information to come back
without straining. It is actually that simple.
#5 Use acronyms
This mnemonic method is widely used for memorization. It uses the first letter of
each word on the list and forms words with them. Unlike the major system
where you form a word for the entire list, when using acronyms you will form
several words that will form a poem or a song. For example when it comes to the
colors of the rainbow, the first three are red, orange and yellow. Picking the first
three will form words like Richard of York to represent the first three colors of
the rainbow so each time you say those three words, you will always retrieve the
colors of the rainbow in their exact order.
As you form these words, use rhythms and rhymes or attach a catchy tune to
make it more interesting since this will be much easier to remember.
For success in memorization when using mnemonics, always establish
connections and associations between new information and that, which it, has
22. stored up. The more associations there are surrounding a particular fact, the
higher the chances of bringing that information to your mind. Also, be keen on
the methods that require visualization as recalling will be much easier. This will
also reduce the chances of confusion.
Why use mnemonics?
#Mnemonic methods provide a memory bridge to recall information that would
have been otherwise harder for you to remember.
#With the arranging and rearranging of information, mnemonic methods
personalizes information making it interesting hence easier to remember as
opposed to raw unarranged information.
#Mnemonics allows for less time spent on retrieving information from long term
memory due to the way they have been arranged and categorized during the
learning phase.

24. Unleash Your Power (Increasing
Brain Power)
Brain power refers to the overall capacity of the brain not just the thinking aspect
of it. The brain doesn’t just think; it does a lot more functions such as handling:
#Intelligence
#Creativity
#Talents
#Consciousness
#Intuition
Although mind power is of infinitive dimensions and the fact that it cannot be
measured, it can be rated. Some people have more brain power than others;
actually, there can be lack of balance between the aspects the brain handles. For
example, it is easy to notice someone with a great mental ability but lacking in
the other aspect.
All that can be improved with practice. We will discuss some actionable
techniques and strategies to get you started. As you get started, discipline,
motivation and patience should be part of your guiding principles.
25. Mind Mapping
This diagram is used to depict how your mind organizes the information it
receives. Instead of a linear approach, mind mapping sets to exploit more of your
mind capabilities. By exploiting more of its capabilities, it means that it can
expand its functionality hence making it more powerful.
When studying using this technique, your mind is able to store information in the
long term memory. This is a supplement to the traditional method of learning, as
it enhances the way your brain performs its function. The two have to be used
hand in hand; mind mapping should complement not replace traditional brain
functioning.
27. Mental stimulation
This is a method of enhancing brainpower by keeping it active and functioning.
The same way physical exercises enhance wellness and body functionality,
mental stimulation seeks to promote good health of the brain, which in turn
promotes its power.
Through research, it has been established that the more you think, the better the
brain functions. When you don’t exercise its functionality, you weaken your
cognitive abilities and over time, you will notice you’ve become slower in
thinking and even understanding things. Your creativity, intuition, and
intelligence also gets slowed down.
You can do mental stimulation by playing mind games more frequently. These
can be in the form of playing scrabble, chess or even filling crosswords and
Sudoku’s. It may seem like a waste of time but it has been established that these
games force you to use your cognitive abilities therefore significantly increasing
your brainpower.
You can also increase your brain power by spending your leisure time doing
creative stuff like writing, drawing and composing as opposed to watching
television or sleeping.
Another way can be doing something hard and technical, which will force you to
think. You can for example take a programming or a calculus course. By doing
something that doesn’t come natural without thinking, you stretch your thinking
abilities, which in turn boost your brain power.
28. Important points to note
As you practice and learn the techniques that will aid you with increasing your
brain power, you will need to incorporate the following to achieve maximum
success in your quest:-
Reduce stress
Stress is known to block your brain efficiency making it to start dragging. Stress
reduces the brains ability to focus because all the mental energy has been
redirected to handle whatever it is that is bothering you. Chronic stress is known
to destroy some of the key brain cells significantly reducing the capacity and the
power of the brain.
Stress and anxiety take a heavy toll on the brain. They are known to: hinder
proper thinking, make it difficult to concentrate, make decision making difficult
and make it hard to remember things. With all these distractions, it means that
stress will definitely make it hard to master the art of boosting brainpower.
Get enough sleep
Sleep helps relax both the body and the brain; a tired brain has less power to
completely execute its functions, which includes learning. So get enough sleep
and when your mind is relaxed and clearer, train yourself on these techniques.
Meditate
Meditation is a great way to relax both your mind and body. Apart from that,
meditation expands the working size of the brain therefore increasing its power.
A relaxed mind will be able to do more than just normal. Meditation also
improves focus, concentration, creativity, learning and reasoning. Meditation
does all these by increasing the thickness of the cerebral cortex therefore
encouraging more connections between brain cells, which promote mental
sharpness and memory ability.
Exercise
Physical exercise is good for both your body and your brain too. It has a way of
making you feel reenergized and refreshed meaning that your brain’s capacity is
at a peak to execute its functions. Regular exercises promote the release of feel
good hormones in the body that minimizes the stress levels therefore clearing
your mind for content absorption.
During physical exercise, the heart is greatly aided in the pumping of blood,
which is coupled with more breathing. This means more oxygen is sent to the
