    I tried speedreading for a month and while my speed almost tripled i found that the faster I read the less enjoyment I get. Id say It’s good for work, documents, Articles etc, but when you’re reading for pleasure just take your time and immerse yourself. Let your subconcious choose the speed you want at any given moment in the story. I found that while reading fantasy for example I can take up to 5 minutes on a single page of descriptions, but I can read same ammount in a minute or less when It’s a gripping action sequence.
    But yeah It’s a cool skill to have, just don’t force yourself to use it when you font want to :)

    The most important thing about reading in my opinion is the ability to focus for long periods of time, many people in this day and age lack their ability to focus on one thing at a time and do multi tasking instead, which is just terrible,because you cannot possibly do 3 things at 100% of your ability,instead if you were and could focus for only 1 task and give it your 100% the outcome would be times better

    Actually it's more important how we comprehend while reading fastly!
    For Example: If we read something which has no title or called 'Schema' but just two three sentences which describes something like:-
    "This is an easy thing to do, if possible you could do it at home but you would always go someplace else if it's necessary beware of doing it this is a major mistake it may costs you quite a bit of money"
    Actually this doesn't make any sense but if we say the title of this we can understand easily that is LAUNDRY - WHICH DESCRIBES THE PARA ABOVE!

    I don't agree. It's a pretty obvious idea anybody will come up with that does these kind of videos. And two (or more) youtubers shedding light on the same topic from different angles is perfectly fine. The fact, that this video came right after mine is 99% pure coincidence and happens to me all the time as well.

    I have a friend, who reads insanely fast. He obviously possesses these techniques of speed reading even without ever learning them. I remember we measured he could read two pages in 25 seconds. He also told me that he does not hear a voice in his head while reading. But what I noticed repeatedly, that even understanding everything very well at such a speed, he always forgets things he read quite fast, and tends to confuse details more than me (and I am VERY inattentive). So everything has its price

  • @MrSpaceCrash
    @MrSpaceCrash ปีที่แล้ว

    I loved the idea of this video and the free reading test website you used so I tried it out. I can consistently score above 700 with above 75% comprehension and I have never practiced any of the techniques in this video. I am rando youtube comment guy but here is my recommendation to get really fast at reading.
    Input-output Simple as that. Find something you like to read. Find a lot of it. Read it as quickly as possible. I think in this video when you talk about not speaking the words vocally you are tapping into something very important. Do not speak any of the words, don't even look at the words. If you want to reach some insane reading speeds practice skimming and then go over what you skimmed to see how much you comprehend. Your brain is a computational powerhouse and if you really want to read something quickly trying to get the meaning of every word the moment you see it will really slow you down.
    I remember watching a video online that showed 2 different numbers on both sides of the screen and the numbers would randomly change. You were tasked to watch the video but not keep track of the numbers and see which side was higher at the end. Most people ended up picking the right answer. Your brain is a lot more powerful than you give it credit for. Reading is just like any other skill. Read fast and read a lot and improvement will come.

    I have to say. I love reading slowly/moderate pace and reading each word in my head. It's just more immersive and enjoyable to read a good story that way. Speed reading is like watching everything at 2x speed. Yeah you can enjoy and still understand but it's just not the same

    • @renkaizaki4764
      @renkaizaki4764 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    • @tcaw8813
      @tcaw8813 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah people who read for pleasure and not to be on a sigma male grindset tend to want to enjoy books and enjoy the imagery and visualize them, and feel the words. Hes literally doing this so he can read self help books. He has it in his mind reading is a successful thing to do. This video is super dumb. Not to mention his comprehension went down on simple example texts meaning hes halfway skimming.
      Also the "grouping the words" technique will not work for most great authors since they turn their phrases around, and youll probably end up misreading what they say if you rely on it.

      sort of like getting so used to videos on 3x that you can use 1.5x without missing info or pacing
      but i don't try to speedread everything, that would be like running everywhere
      sometimes i might read aloud or maybe try to jumpstart again a voice in my head when reading poetry or dialogue so that i am better immersed in what is happening
