EP 156: Improve Your Reading Efficiency and Learning - Abby Marks Beale
Become a smarter, faster and more efficient reader
Most of us wish to be smarter, faster and better readers. On this week's show, we learn how to become better readers with Abby Marks Beale, America's #1 Speed Reading Expert and author of 10 Days to Faster Reading. We discuss pointers for becoming a more confident reader and making reading more enjoyable. As they say, learners are earners, and this episode covers an exploration of reading habits and techniques that can be introduced into our day to enable us to improve our reading efficiency and learning.
Here's what we discuss with Abby in this week's show:
Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements. They are not sponsored by, nor do we have any professional or affiliate relationship of any kind with any of the companies or products highlighted in the show.... sadly! It’s just stuff we like, think is cool and maybe of interest to you our listeners.
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
