The first misunderstanding is that "slow reading is not enough, and fast reading is nonsense."
In their reading experience year after year, these people feel that ordinary people cannot read slowly when they read slowly. Moreover, there are many questions in the book that cannot be clearly seen and remembered. If I read them quickly, wouldn’t it be like “just glancing at them”? Will the effect still be good? People's doubts about fast reading have formed a long-term mindset after a long time. After the mindset is formed, people's habit of "unwavering belief" in slow reading has been determined. Although this traditional reading habit has its reasonable side, it also has another unknown side that limits and hinders the development of people's reading potential. Many people believe that reading slowly and intensively is the best way to understand and remember. This is actually confusing the requirements for reading comprehension and memory.
In fact, although slow reading is good for understanding, it is the least conducive to memory and the least efficient reading method. The reason is that the speed of intensive reading is too slow. This slow pace is too different from the fast pace of the brain to process information. The two are inconsistent and difficult to match. For example, people who read slowly have this experience. Halfway through the book, they suddenly find themselves wandering around the world and thinking about other unrelated things. If you are not focused, your understanding will naturally be poor. Speed ??reading is just the opposite. The rhythm of reading is closer to the speed at which the brain processes information, making it easier to coordinate and match. Therefore, it is most conducive to people's memory. We can draw this conclusion from the achievements of many famous people with fast reading. Speed ??reading is not a special function, nor is it a patent for a few people. It is a potential of human beings, especially teenagers, and a golden key that can open the door to wisdom. Everyone is born with the ability to read quickly, they just don't know how. But as long as it is potential, it can be developed; if it is skill, it can be trained. By changing your original reading habits through speed reading training, you can fully stimulate your reading potential.
The second misunderstanding is that "people's ability to read quickly is innate."
People’s desire for knowledge leads to people’s need for reading. Nowadays, Chinese people generally only adapt to the traditional forms of slow reading and intensive reading. Of course, there are also many scholars who hope that they can possess the legendary ability of "one glance, ten lines, and a glance" as mentioned by the ancients. Generally speaking, most people think that the ability to read without forgetting is just a dream. Whenever someone promotes speed reading, they will say, "Ten lines in one glance, photographic memory." That can only be mastered by geniuses, but I can't! Is it really not possible? In fact, the practice of human development has proven that this view is wrong. Everyone may be a genius, because for fast reading, human beings already have the necessary physiological and psychological conditions, and as long as they are properly trained, you can fully achieve it. .
British writer and psychologist Tony Buzan believes: "Like the brain, the eyes are much more powerful than we realize. We now know that each eye has 150 million cells each. A photoreceptor that can receive trillions of photons per second, and suddenly, I saw the scenery of a mountain. I could take in the whole thing in one second. Therefore, the content of a page in an ordinary book is much larger. It's easy. It's just that we haven't learned how to apply these same visual skills to reading. "The speed reading geniuses and masters of the past and today are actually just like us. The only difference is that they have found the right method and. Training techniques that suit them, and persistence in training and practice day after day, year after year, will allow them to reach the heights of their achievements. Any limitations people have often start from their own hearts. Modern science has proven that the human brain has unlimited potential and training space. What you need to say to yourself is "If others can do it, you can do it too!"
The third misunderstanding is that "people's ability to read quickly is acquired through reading."
Many students who want to improve their speed reading ability are keen to buy various speed reading books in large quantities and participate in many speed reading training courses. The cost is high but the results are small, which makes these friends doubtful about speed reading. : "Why haven't I mastered the speed reading method after reading so many theoretical books on speed reading?" "Why hasn't my speed reading ability improved after I attended several speed reading training classes?" These doubts all come from a misunderstanding: "Human speed reading ability is obtained by reading." Knowledge and abilities are both related but also separate systems.
"Knowledge" and "action" are two completely independent categories of accumulation of knowledge and possession of ability. The most illustrative example is this: If a person dreams of becoming a world champion in swimming but cannot swim, A young man studies hard all day long with various swimming theory books, but he has never jumped into a swimming pool to train. Then will he learn to swim? The conclusion is negative. Although he has a wealth of swimming theories, will he become a master swimmer or even a world champion? Of course not, the conclusion is also negative. "Knowledge" is the learning and accumulation of knowledge, and "action" is based on the mastery of people's ability to act. It must be acquired through repeated and uninterrupted training and practice.
Elite Speed ??Reading and Memory Professional Training puts forward the concept of "training to develop abilities, training to develop geniuses". It emphasizes that training can improve your abilities and help you succeed! In fact, most of the skills people have are developed through training. Which of today's world masters in painting, music, memory, gymnastics, and acrobatics were not created through hard training? Even the common things we do like riding a bicycle, driving a car, or operating a computer have not been systematically trained and can be operated subconsciously and skillfully? Book knowledge can let you know these principles, but only training can let you acquire these skills. Today's speed reading masters can read at a speed of tens of thousands of words per minute; memory masters can recite numbers with more than 10,000 digits after the decimal point; thousands of ordinary people can also recite hundreds to thousands of digits after learning and training, improving their reading ability. Reading speed is ten times or even dozens of times. In fact, you can improve it by more than ten times through speed reading and memory training!
The training of fast reading and memory has been promoted and developed in dozens of countries in the world for more than 60 years and tens of millions of people have participated in the training; in our country, it has also been promoted and developed for more than 30 years and several times. Millions of people participated in learning and training. The National Ministry of Education commented that "This is a simple and easy experiment with almost zero risk. The prerequisite for its success is that the executor is willing to take action."
