Discover The Secret To Fast Learning


“Fast” brings back the image of the Roadrunner zooming past the obstacles laid out by Wily Coyote.

Much of what you learn
can be acquired through reading. Reading enables you to tap into the minds of great people.

In the hope of reading more books, some attempt fast track reading. Fast track reading may involve reading by phrases and concepts compared with the word-for-word method. Fast track reading enables you to cover more pages with the same rate. Few people are aware of this seldom-talked about technique in fast learning. Learning is accelerated when you “see” the whole idea of the write-up or book. Seeing “live pictures” of ideas and thoughts of the writer makes reading experiential and unforgettable. When you see nothing while reading, you learn nothing. Fast reading becomes useless.

This technique is called visualization. Visualization is vital to quick learning. Visualization in reading is like constructing a jigsaw puzzle where pieces are put together to form the whole picture. Just going through the motions of fast reading can give you a hazy picture of the subject matter. Fast reading without visual pictures often informs but very seldom impresses.

Impressions last while information changes with time. Impressions change you, and these are stored permanently in the mind.

Effective learning is not about how fast you can finish reading a book.
Visual pictures provide lasting impressions. Go after ideas and how it will enrich people’s existence.
