Read the Material
1. Return to the beginning and fill in the details of what you know already - visually read as fast as you can go.
2. Always read faster than your voice can say the words - seek out the concepts and ideas - go for the mind pictures - read with your eyes and mind rather than your voice.
3. Always read forward - trust that you are getting the ideas and understandings as you continue.
