Imagine your mind as a vast landscape, teeming with countless desires, distractions, and fleeting thoughts. When you pick up a book, your brain doesn't automatically know what to focus on among this chaos.
But purpose alone isn’t enough. Before diving into the text, take a moment to preview the material. Imagine arriving in a new city and taking a stroll to understand its layout before exploring in depth.
Consider the difference between reading a technical manual and a novel. The manual demands precision and slow, careful reading because one missed step can cause errors. A novel, especially one you’re familiar with, invites a relaxed, fluid pace.
These three foundational steps—purpose, preview, and style adaptation—are your compass and map for the journey ahead. They prepare your mind and eyes to work in harmony, setting the stage for the powerful speed reading techniques to come.
Now that your foundation is solid, it’s time to explore how to harness your eyes’ natural abilities to capture more words and meaning in less time.
