"1,315 WPM!!!!!? that is not a typo!"

Blowing my mind!!! ? Typical readers range around 205 words per minute to 250 words per minute. 
Day 1: I scored 210 words per minute. I had always considered myself a fairly quick reader… Well at least compared to my husband beside me LOL but I did find myself often regressing and going back a lot or focussing on each individual word almost at times. And savouring way too long adjectives LOL 
Day 3: Learned in day 2 about “clearing the obstacles” and today we learned about “visual pacer”. Re-did my new base rate ….706 words per minute!!! ? 
Day 5: “indentation reading” 725 WPM! 
Day 6: Been practicing using my visual pacer and practicing my indentation reading. 1,315 WPM!!!!!? that is not a typo!?? I even kept checking my timer because I was flying through one chapter after another when before I couldn’t even make it past three pages! This is totally crazy! ?Where will I be at the end of five weeks!!???? 

Jim Kwik keeps emphasizing that we should NOT be focussing on comprehension, not to stress out over it, that he will teach us this later in the class but I am actually comprehending every single thing that I’m reading? even to the point that I’m laughing because of what I read. ??‍♀️?? 

I haven’t even finished this class, so maybe technically I don’t qualify to add my story but my class won’t be done before the September 30 cut off time to submit. But all I can say is… Mind-blowing!??and a massive thank you Jim Kwik & Mindvalley!!!??❤️

"I love that it is not just about speed but about comprehension"

Before beginning this program, I was already a lover or reading. But it seemed that I was always getting books faster than I could read them. I felt like the guy in that original Twilight Zone tv show episode "Time Enough at Last" that just wished to have all the time in the world to rea...
