Can someone supply more information about the speed/power reading mentioned in the interview. I think that'd be an awfully practical skill.

Hi All, I read the Jake Simpson stuff, but forgot about coming here to discuss. However really reasonated with me was the fact that as part of his training, these what would be considered super skills were learnt, reading a book in 3 minutes, this is what I am interested in, is there anyway of having Kerry or Bill approach him or any well trained whistleblower about what this entails, it would be useful, and this linear page by page thing I do is just so SLOW. If anybody has any suggestions on how to acquire these skills, please come forward.

Thanks

Hi Eleoura,

You can learn the 'secret' power of reading faster (not sponsored by the secret government, by the way) at the following link and it's free!:

or here:

I will test you in a fortnight.

Best regards,

Steve

Thanks for that! But with that sarcastic smiley I'm not sure you mean this. Did you try it?

Hi Czymra,

I read your reply before you even typed it! You will find out in a fortnight.

Best regards,

Steve

P.S. I found the second link more useful.
