great help

helpful info! only problem I had was chapter 10 cutting out while she's talking over the material

Some great tips

Some great tips. Discipline Your Eyes was definitely my favorite, as I'm not much of a speed reader. I still think that techniques and non-sub vocalization mentioned here are hokum, as my mind doesn't work cogently without words. Other than that though, my reading speed went from around 235 words per minute to around 600, and my comprehension by focusing on grouping has gone way up as well.

audio cut out

great book but audio cuts out near the end. no big deal though. awesome listen.

Thanks a lot:) I really enjoyed:)

I will do it... and I will used the techniques.. thanks a lot.. your purpose in life was reflected in your book thanks Abby

motivating to listen...

Since I listen while I am driving I like the fact that it has a "bell" or some sort of "ping" when the narrator is about to say key words and phrases or make a point. it helps not to doze off and day dream while the audio is on. Plus it is made to be listened and is acknowledging it throughout-- thus emphasizing where you can refer back on the book (what pages) if you want to go through the exercises further. I had purchased another book of the same topic at the same time and i like this one better.
