Anyone ever try to consciously learn to read faster? How did it go? “How much more could you get done if you completed all of your required reading in 1/3 or 1/5 the time?” is a nice thought 💭 https://tim.blog/2009/07/30/speed-reading-and-accelerated-learning/

Yes, I’ve tried! The good old “Evelyn Wood Speed-Reading Program” I have no idea how it got on my shelf, but it was very confident that it could teach me to bypass language and have the experience of watching a movie in my head while reading instead of seeing words. THAT was a compelling promise. Didn’t work!
