Skipping
and Skipping
Take
a flat or rounded stone and throw it, at a low angle, across a
pool of water. The stone bounces across the water several times, then loses
momentum and sinks. The stone covers a great distance
but only briefly touches the surface.
Do your eyes skim over great volumes of information yet only briefly absorb a
few words of understanding?
Skipping and skimming is a hit and miss approach to reading. It's
the 'roulette' of speed improvement. The odds of understanding what you read
when you skip-read are extremely low. In fact by reading this way
you feel unfulfilled, empty and
unsatisfied - as if too much information has been lost.
You should never skip over words that you think may be unimportant or
irrelevant. If you don't see the words, you can't judge their importance.
There is a fantastic process
called of PREVIEW (taught in TurboRead). This helps you to sift out what is important
from what is rubbish.
TurboRead is NOT about skipping words or skim reading. It is
about making the entire reading process more efficient. This is done not by missing
information, but by processing it faster - closer to your speed of thought. By
widening your eye focus and bettering your word recognition, you will be able to
process many more words per eye
glance.
Result - comprehension and understanding improve tremendously.
