What started as a university lecture course has evolved into a very affordable do-it-yourself course designed to make everyone “from stay-at-home moms and dads to administrative assistants to MBAs to CEOs” more valuable to their company in the form of The Complete Speed Reading Program.
The Complete Speed Reading Program, Family Edition, contains four books (available both as a PDF download and “if desired” in print):
Speed Read in Only One Hour teaches the basic techniques and has multiple reinforcement exercises. If You Can Read This, You Can Read Faster is specifically designed for children. It is written at a third-grade reading level to help give young brains the best chance to re-learn how to read. It also teaches the basic techniques of the program. Be Dynamic Through Speed Reading is essential for anyone looking to go to college or go back to school. Focusing on concentration, note taking, and recall, this book will help students wade through the millions of words that need to be read each semester and give them time to not only finish their studies, but also to have a social life.
Think Right is a book not on speed reading, but as SpeedRead America takes a holistic approach to everything we do “helps one develop one’s own self-power and provides an ethical viewpoint on technology” Think Right focuses on learning to help set your thoughts on what you want and then accomplish whatever that might be.
In addition to the books, the Complete Speed Reading Program includes a dozen audio files designed to be listened to at any time “during a commute, during “down time” at work, or even during sleep” to buttress not only the speed reading, but the other topics covered in the books. Some of the audio files supplement the speed reading program while others cover reading comprehension, accelerated learning abilities, memory enhancement and intuitive development. Others take on a more spiritual bent, offering tips and conditioning to aid in relaxation and stress relief, developing self confidence and self power, and eliminating the inner negative dialogue.

How to Enhance Your Long-Term Memory Quickly

Did you realize that everything that you read, by using SPEED READING, you unconsciously store in a part of your long-term memory. This happens because of intense concentration also called focus. Intense concentration, focus, causes the change of your states of consciousness. Focus takes you into the storage area and allows access of long-term memory just by concentrating.
Another factor is photographic or tape recorder memories where you see pictures or hear conversations. You really can remember everything you have ever seen or heard, even if you weren’t focused. Your brain/mind, works like a camera, an audio recording device, and a computer, storing all memories and computer data.
When you begin learning BE DYNAMIC THROUGH SPEED READING techniques, you’ll notice some slight repetition! It is these techniques repeated, with visualization and various other methods that will help you achieve what you want and be your personal best.
All of this, with a little practice, will make you a better student, employee, communicator, and a much better decision maker in your life. This is but one of your benefits – plus, you will cut reading time on reports, memos, correspondence, newspapers, novels, non-fiction, magazine, etc. in half, or do even better. You’ll save time –”time is money”.
Writers get paid by the word in articles and by % of gross sales (royalties) in book publishing; usually the thicker the book the higher the price and the higher the royalty. Writers are unnecessarily verbose. What this means is there are many words within sentences that are just there as fillers. What you have to learn to do, through the Be Dynamic Through Speed Reading program, is to only read the words that are essential. You will learn how to do this through Be Dynamic. For example, take a look at this paragraph:
You are a slower reader because you read word-by-word and you say every word to yourself. Instead you should use your hand as a pacer.
OK, now search for the important words … like those in capital letters:
YOU are a SLOW READER BECAUSE YOU READ word-BY-WORD and you SAY EVERY WORD TO yourSELF. Instead you should USE YOUR HAND AS a PACER.
When you look at those words,, you’ll notice the words in ALL CAPS; these are the ONLY WORDS YOU MUST READ to get the meaning of the paragraph.The ones I typed in regular type are just fillers. What you need to be reading is this:
YOU SLOW READER BECAUSE YOU READ BY WORD SAY EVERY WORD TO SELF. USE YOUR HAND AS PACER.
Wow, it reminds me of the old Tonto of the Lone Ranger Saturday AM TV show. But, you can get what it means and you can easily get rid of those filler words.

The Capacity Of Interactivity

What is often not said is the power of multiple activities. More and more, the generation that is younger – those that are digital savvy – text, twitter and instant message each other.
Time and speed are combined to create tribes and related friends who form communities and relationships to collaborate and have fun.
Communication and speed are the way of the new world. A message is being sent to us by the young generation. Fast is definitely the way of the world. Two way conversations control the way we learn in the new world.
The writing is on the wall. Change is accelerating. The world is flatter. The authorities and experts are revealing faster and faster how little they know.
We are moving from a command factory learning broadcast style where few are assumed to have great knowledge and others wait to hear and learn from them.
Teachers and broadcasters – who decide to lecture – they are losing out to Web learning, two way dialogues, gossiping and communication.
The more you listen to the authorities and experts, the more you are able to see the limits of their advice and transparency. The new models of communication must spell out the assumptions be interactive and dynamic – showing worse case scenarios.
The best wealth builders are realizing the power of time, the internet, speed and digital communications. You cannot ignore your stakeholders or your customers. You will suffer the consequences.
To build wealth, you must understand the power of peer groups, tribes, communities, speed, interactivity time information and the flows of hot money.
In the end, basics will win over lack of transparency manipulation and downright dishonesty. The more that you learn the communication style of the new world, the more opportunity you will have in order to build sustainable wealth.
Be patient and deliberate. Listen carefully. Do not fall for manipulative rhetoric promises. Do not make decisions based upon the world is going to fall apart. It won’t!

Newspapers with narrow columns, magazines, with slightly wider columns, books, computer screens, and in the mail and email.
Slow readers struggle. They can’t identify the methods to success and they struggle due to slowing down to identify words that don’t understand — they will see a particular word, slow down, think about the meaning, then restart the reading process. Perhaps they won’t sound out all of the words they’ve been reading, but they will spend more time on some phrases than others. Because, they are just skimming across those small sections that are easy to understand.

The Disadvantages of Blind Dating – The Other Side

Filed under Speed and Blind Dating
Meeting the perfect person for you is something that relies on many things. Giving the best account of your personality is a part of it, as is a sense of optimism and purpose. And as much as anything else, pure luck can make a big difference. Of course, we all have a large amount of luck in our lives. In some cases it is mostly good luck, in others it may be mostly bad. The kind of luck we have governs many things, and our dating experiences are among those things.
Luck is a part of dating, whatever branch of dating you pursue. If you go for blind dating you are relying on that spark being there when you meet up and go on a date. If you are lucky, you will find that you both enjoy the same things and you can make each other laugh or smile. If you are unlucky, then the whole evening can go like a meeting from Hell. The unfortunate part of this is that being fixed up by a friend means that you cannot be too quick to apportion blame, for fear of souring a good friendship.
The blind date also has pitfalls for the match maker. If you arrange a date for two friends, then you are creating the possibility that one of them will blame you if it goes wrong. It also puts you in an awkward position if a friend comes to you asking specifically that you arrange for them to go out with one of your friends. If that goes badly they can end up not trusting you.
The Advantages of Blind Dating

Although many people consider blind dating to be outdated in a world where the technological revolution has made close scrutiny of other people a matter of a few clicks of a mouse, it is still a fairly common way of embarking on a dating relationship. While not everyone will be enamored with the idea of meeting and dating someone whose only immediate “selling point” is a mutual friend, there are many who will trust their friend’s judgement without question – and often it works to their advantage.
No-one knows us as well as our friends. They spend time with us and they see things in us that we do not even see ourselves. As tricky as it can be to judge how well two people will get on, it is made immeasurably easier by knowing a few of their quirks, their likes and dislikes, and how they will react to the more outlandish sides of a person’s character. It is hard to ever judge a perfect fit, but few things in this world are 100% perfect, and it makes sense that a friend will be able to judge what will work for you.
At the end of the day, a relationship forming depends on two individuals finding each other’s company pleasant enough to want to make it a more regular occurrence. Such a bond cannot be invented or forced, but if anyone can spot the potential for it to form, it is someone who knows both parties well. The rest of the work is for the couple themselves.
Blind Dating – is true love blind?

The practice of blind dating is something which has been popular in many societies for many years now. TV shows have been based on the concept. It forms a staple part of the entertainment industry, with many sitcoms featuring a blind date, usually an extremely bad one, on average once every couple of series. It is still reasonably common practice, however, because individuals often enjoy match making between single friends who do not know each other. It starts with “I think x would really like y, they have so much in common”, and can end in wedding bells or bitter tears – or many points in between.
The premise behind blind dating is that a mutual friend sees two of their friends who are single and available and unlucky in love. They seem to have interests in common and personalities that are – more or less – compatible. None of this guarantees that the couple will hit it off, of course. A relationship needs to have the “X” factor, a little touch of chemistry that makes the conversation flow naturally, makes each joke funny and lets a connection happen without being forced.
The “blind” aspect of the date is that, usually, the individuals will not have met before, or even seen one another, except possibly in photographs. Despite having a friend in common, there is no guarantee that they will get along. If they do get along, however, it works out well for their friends, who get to spend time with two people they like without having to travel as much.

Looking for the right partner can be an incredibly tricky process. There are many people who think that there is one perfect person for all of us in the world – so if you never meet that person, or you meet them and it goes wrong, you have no hope. This is plainly wrong, though, because the world simply is not that ordered. It still does not stop a lot of people from losing hope, and this is why even targeted dating services can be more hindrance than help in many ways. Thinking about it realistically, how certain can you be that attending a speed dating event will bring you into contact with someone you will love, and who loves you?
Attending a speed dating event can bring you into contact with a wide range of people, some of whom you may get along with. However, looking at it objectively, there is no reason why the ideal person for you, or one of them, will be among a field that can be as small as five people. Coming back from a speed dating event not having met anyone you would want to see again – or finding that the one or more that you had a good feeling about did not reciprocate that feeling – can be pretty upsetting.
In the end, is a period of time that can be as little as three minutes long really enough time to get a feel for what someone is really like? The event can fall on a day when you simply were not at your best, so if it doesn’t happen for you, you should not lose faith in yourself.

In terms of popularity, speed dating has become very big since the start of this decade, as it can remove a lot of the searching from the process of finding the right partner. People have taken to speed dating in a big way because, for the most part, it takes away some of the awkwardness of looking for a partner.
When trying to find someone with whom to share the dating experience, there is a certain amount of dread attached to approaching someone who may or may not be “available”. They may be in a relationship, they may be taking a voluntary break from dating altogether, or they may be interested in a different sort of person. However valid and inoffensive their reason for passing on the opportunity, it still hurts to be rejected. At a speed dating event, it is clear that everyone is there for the purposes of meeting a potential dating partner. If they then do not want to date you, it is just a matter of taste. Hard to accept, maybe, but at least there is clarity.
As well as this, speed dating allows you to meet the person face to face and see if you feel a connection before embarking on a “real date”. Sometimes a first date, especially a “blind date” can be a harrowing and embarrassing experience for both people because they simply do not “hit it off”. Speed dating gives you the chance to see if the spark is there before investing unrealistic expectations.

There is such a high level of importance placed on finding the “right” partner these days that a wave of different dating services have opened up to allow people to try and find someone. Among these services are several that enable the individual to “vet” possible suitors before they actually go on a date, the theory being that you can find out in advance if you have enough in common to make dating worthwhile. Of these methods, one of the most popular is “speed dating”. This is, in short, a way of meeting several potential suitors in one night for a controlled period of time (from three to five minutes, usually).
In the course of a speed dating evening, depending on the turnout, a person can meet anything from a few to around twenty people in whom they might be interested. In theory, for a mixed-gender speed dating event, there should be an equal number of men and women, and the attendees of a particular gender will all be sat at fixed tables. They will then be visited in turn by possible dating partners, and have a short amount of time to chat about whatever interests them. At the close of each “visit”, an individual will either put a tick or a cross next to the name of their “date”. The following day they will feed their responses into the speed-dating website, and any coupling that gave each other a tick will then be able to arrange another date. From that point, it is all up to them.
