Oh, this is interesting! The intro is really setting the stage, promising a huge jump in reading speed – two to ten times faster? That sounds almost too good to be true, but I'm definitely curious to see how they break it down. Plus, the mention of reading challenges at the end makes it feel like it's going to be practical.
Okay, so the first technique is 'stop subvocalization.' That makes sense; I never really thought about how much I'm 'hearing' words in my head as I read. The idea that it's holding us back to our speaking speed is a really clear explanation of why it's an issue.
It's cool how they're directly addressing a common habit. Suppressing that inner voice sounds like it'll take some conscious effort, but the immediate speed increase they're promising is a great motivator to try it. I'm already thinking about how I read sometimes and if I do this.
