			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Speed reading.</strong> The whole world’s talking about it these days. These two words are causing havoc throughout the internet. Some say it takes months of practice, others say it takes just an hour or two. Others say that they learned speed reading naturally.</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s simply the natural step up from regular reading.<code><br />
</code></p></blockquote>
<p>It is accepted knowledge that the average person reads at a rate of 250 words per minute. If you’re a top-notch speed reader, that speed will come to about 1000 words per minute. Yes, as high as that, Sometimes more. But just reading fast is not enough. The reader has to have good comprehension of what he or she reads. An average reader like you and me has a comprehension rate of about 50 to 60 percent, while an advanced reader will have something around 85 percent.</p>
<p>The advocates of speed reading have always commended it as a massive time saver. This is absolutely true, considering how much time people <strong>usually </strong>spend reading, and how much faster they&#8217;re able to get through the text they have to read&#8230; From a top executive to a high school student, speed reading can help immensely.</p>
<p>But there&#8217;s one thing they don&#8217;t usually point out: once you learn speed reading, you&#8217;ll <strong>want to read more.</strong></p>
<p>You won&#8217;t spend any less time reading &#8211; you&#8217;ll read more and more and more, just because you&#8217;ll love it so much. You&#8217;ll go to the library and pick out 10 books you think look interesting, and you&#8217;ll sit at home and charge right through them.</p>
<p>Speed reading will completely change the way you think about non-fiction books. At a regular reading speed, they&#8217;ll seem boring and not worth your time. But when you learn how to speed read, they&#8217;ll be the best thing on earth. You&#8217;ll be amazed at how much you read. You&#8217;ll feel like there&#8217;s a whole world of information just <em>waiting </em>to be consumed &#8211; and indeed, that world is out there.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s up to you if you want to take advantage of it. The only thing that&#8217;s holding you back is your reading ability.</p>
<p>And you&#8217;re in luck, too, because it&#8217;s <strong>never been easier to <a href="http://www.speedreadingisreal.com/speed-reading-manual/">learn speed reading</a>. </strong>You can get yourself started <strong>now </strong>with the Speed Reading Manual &#8211; you&#8217;ll be speed reading within an hour.</p>
