How to read hundreds of books next year
How many books have you read recently? If you’re similar to a quarter of Americans, your answer could be zero. According to the Pew Research Center, 26% of Americans don’t read a single book, even in part, over the course of a year. But even if you’re a regular reader, you probably wish you had more time to get through your bookcase and actually read all the books you’ve got piling up in there, instead of just saying you did.
Your secret weapon: speed-reading. Speed readers are pretty much the masters of getting sh*t done.
The Insider School has picked up the secrets of speed readers like Bill Gates and Elon Musk and put them into a course called Become a Speeding Reading Machine. First off, they’ll get you motivated to read more, sharing a hidden benefit of reading that’ll make you want to pick up a book every day. The next step, of course, is reading faster — twice as fast, to be exact.
You’ll learn what they call the “double time solution,” which will get you reading twice as much without spending more time on it. And finally, they’ll even teach you how to pick books that will help you succeed, and how to use what you learn to make more money and become more successful.
Start reading more, faster. You can pick up the speed reading course (for lifetime access, to boot) at the Mashable Shop for $25, a savings of 87% off the regular price.
