Diamond Course *** Photo Reading

Book excerpt: This book tells you a lot about speed reading and photography. You are in the privileged position from which you can continue to increase your reading speed while maintaining the same rate of comprehension of the text. The course is complex, but you can choose exactly those techniques that suit you best. All of these techniques can be reduced to two or three main techniques that you have seen work for you and those you can keep exploring and, why not, improving. Speed reading can be condensed into a single sentence, but that doesn't change the facts of the matter. If I want to go to the gym because I want to have a worked body and the trainer shows me the exercises I need to do in a session, that doesn't automatically mean I'll look good. It's one thing to learn technique in a few minutes and another to exercise every day. You need willpower, discipline and determination to repeat the basic exercises daily. Without constant effort you cannot achieve results. If you go to the gym three times a week then you start to form a habit, and this habit helps you to live in the culture of sport. Being connected to the information in that sport and being able to generate so much enthusiasm that it counteracts your desire to give up the fight and return to your comfort zone. That's why I wrote about speed reading, to start living in the culture of this wonderful field. You have speed reading on your side. With it, you can get to break the 1000 words per minute barrier. That means you'll be able to read four times faster than the average person with the same or even better comprehension of the text.
