Speed Reading Secrets - Finish What You Started by Comprehending and Remembering Everything You Read

"Surviving and thriving as a professional today demands two new approaches to the written word. First, it requires a new approach to orchestrating information, by skilfully choosing what to read and what to ignore. Second, it requires a new approach to integrating information, by reading faster and with greater comprehension." Jimmy Calano

Ever started reading a book, journal, report and never got to finish it?

Or! Your boss gives you a 100-page manual that he expects you to read and digest and be ready for Monday meeting! There goes your weekend! - and that’s exactly how you feel.

What if you know of a way to quadruple your reading speed and comprehend and remember all the important details? Would that change your life? If you think so, this workshop will do exactly that. It will blow your mind once you have mastered the secrets of speed reading and you can finish what you started by comprehending and remembering everything you read.

It doesn’t matter if you are 8 or 80 years old. It doesn’t matter whether you must read a boring training manual or a book on philosophy. By mastering the secrets of speed reading and memorization you can manage any written article with relative ease and take charge of your time. Just imagine if you can read 4 times faster, it would mean that an article that takes you 1 hour to read, you can do it in 15 mins which leaves you 45 minutes to do other things. Now that is productivity!

This workshop teaches you on how you can do just that! By managing the process of how you synergize and synthesize information you will be able to take charge of your memory and make it razor sharp. You will then be able to use this amazing ability to read faster and comprehend and remember key concepts of everything you read. Results are guaranteed.
