			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>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.</p>
<p>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&#8217;t focused. Your brain/mind, works like a camera, an audio recording device, and a computer, storing all memories and computer data.</p>
<p>As you start to learn the various methods used in the BE DYNAMIC THROUGH SPEED READING, you&#8217;ll notice some intentional redundancy, repetition! It is techniques repeated over and over, with visualization and various other added methods that will help you achieve the results you desire and be the best you can possibly be.</p>
<p>All of this will make you a better student, employee, communicator, and decision maker in your life. And only one of your benefits will be that you will cut reading time on reports, memos, correspondence, newspapers, novels, non-fiction, magazine, etc. You will save time, and the saying goes &#8230;&#8221;time is money&#8221;.</p>
<p>Writers get paid by the word in magazine and newspaper articles and by % of gross sales (royalties) in book publishing. Usually the thicker the book, the longer the article, the higher the price and the higher the royalty or more pay for being wordy. Have you noticed yet that writers are often verbose. That means many words exist within sentences that are just fillers. What you learn in Be Dynamic Through Speed Reading, is only read the words that are essential and then learn speed reading techniques. You will learn how to do this through this example, read this paragraph:</p>
<p>Most likely, 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.</p>
<p>Take time and search for the important words &#8230; like those in capital letters:</p>
<p>Most likely, 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.</p>
<p>When you look at those words,, you&#8217;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:</p>
<p>YOU SLOW READER BECAUSE YOU READ BY WORD SAY EVERY WORD TO SELF. USE YOUR HAND AS PACER.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Dr. Jay Polmar, the founder of www.speedread.org , taught classes in colleges and universities for 16 years. Be Dynamic Through Speed Reading program is his 7.5 hour course recreated so you can learn valuable tools yourself at home or in the dorm.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The worlds most famous speed reading course is Reading Dynamics created by Evelyn Wood. Its 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. </p>
<p>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 all over the world.</p>
<p>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. </p>
<p>When fishing, she brought a book to read until she saw that the float on the fishing line was bobbing. Then shed 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 were reading. </p>
<p>Every time when a fish bit, she just put down the book and started fishing again. That&#8217;s how it all started.</p>
<p>As she got older, she went to the University of Utah where one professor read and graded her 80-page research paper in about ten minutes. This came to 2,500 words per minute. He didn&#8217;t know how to tell his student what made is so he could read fast, nor how he developed his ability. He just read and could understand very quickly and efficiently.</p>
<p>Challenged by the potential to read that fast, Evelyn researched and studied fast readers to see if she could improve her reading speed and comprehension too. Then, she began to teach students herself, she figured out that it could be favorable to them if she passed her skills on. </p>
<p>This desire to read faster and comprehend more is Universal. People all over the world were fascinated in, what turned out to be, Evelyn&#8217;s own techniques for speed reading and comprehension.  As she expanded her research and investigation of speed reading, she found people from different parts of the world reading 1,500 to 6,000 words per minute. All had  an impressive level of comprehension proven by their knack for recalling specifics of the text. </p>
<p>She catalogued what each of them did to read faster and she found that each had their own traits and all of them had multiple traits in common with the others. These included:</p>
<p>1. Words were seen, and read, in groups.  2. Readers identified patterns and key words when they scanned text, quickly identifying the purpose and theme behind the writings. 3. Readers also sped up or slowed down with the simplicity or complexity of the reading materials. This permitted them control of levels of comprehension. </p>
<p>Based on this the Evelyn Wood method was developed. Techniques were developed and tested. </p>
<p>In 1959, she was proficient and prepared enough to develop a system that would teach others to speed read as well. Later that year, she opened the Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Institute in Washington DC. John F. Kennedy was the first president to have his White House staff trained by the Evelyn Wood techinque.</p>
<p>Today, the Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Institute no longer exists in the US. The rights were sold off to various publishers to market as courses, self-taught, and the remaining Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics teachers have private instructional practices. Some teachers are still healthy enough in their mid 6os and 70s to still teach the original technique.</p>
<p>Today, the few remaining teachers have departed their secrets to others, who have put the courses online for you to study. Though, you might learn from itinerant speed reading instructors who often teach classes at community colleges, or private corporations throughout the US and beyond. In New Zealand, Australia, and Western Europe, some offices of the original Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics have survived the creator who past on over 20 years ago.</p>
<p>Since the 1990s, courses became available in audio, video VCR, and later, DVD, adding a convenience that Evelyn could never have even dreamed of when she first taught. Faster reading with greater comprehension can be obtained by students around the world by using the system that Evelyn Wood invented while fishing one sunny day. To find Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics courses, check with www.speedread.org, they carry the audio and video versions to help you increase your reading speed and achieve far greater.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The mind is a source of immeasurable power, and we only use a tiny portion of it. In the book, &#8220;Speed Reading in only One Hour&#8221; I show you how to tap some of that unused power and how to use it for your own improved grades in high school, college, and great successes life.</p>
<p>Your brain can understand from 10,000 to 50,000 bits of data per minute; one bit equates to one word. Although this information comes from old statistics (1980&#8242;s),. based on recently developed speed reading technology, and strides in various types of learning technology, you can achieve phenomenal reading speeds.</p>
<p>The average HS grad, when tested, reads about 250 words per minute. The college student reads at about 300 words per minute. But, no matter what your baseline reading speed, don&#8217;t worry, it is only the beginning. Can you imagine what an advantage you would have to be able to read over 100% faster than you did before? The possibilities are limitless.</p>
<p>We receive information through our five physical senses, (touching, tasting, hearing, smelling, and seeing) and through those senses we make decisions. We make choices and judgments from various factors that the physical senses bring into play. The five physical senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, touch) are preprogrammed for automatic response.</p>
<p>We learn in various ways, beyond the physical senses, through other forms of thought. Much of human thinking is conscious in nature. Senses, however, are totally automatic. An example of might be: when a hungry teenager smells pizza, he or she might start tasting in and even salivating. What&#8217;s taking place is that the sense of smell has automatically brought up a thought, &#8220;PIZZA&#8221;, to the brain and mind. The thought might be unconscious.</p>
<p>Sensing food is a physical sensation through smell. It is a mental sensation (unconsciously or consciously) through thought. And lastly there is a physical sensation through eating, swallowing, and smiling. To summarize the PIZZA adventure: Brain and mind is where the &#8220;action&#8221; is taking place. Body is where the &#8220;reaction&#8221; is taking place.</p>
<p>The brain and the mind hold enormous untapped potential; We&#8217;re going to help you tap into that potential through Speed Reading in One Hour, available at speedread.org, and we&#8217;ll show you how you can succeed in your college life and beyond.</p>
