"Reading Skills "

It has been said that readers are leaders. You can
certainly dispute that, but it is a well-known fact.
Having a reading attitude is an integral part of
being successful.

Reading has always been the cornerstone of my
learning. The first time a book was read to me in
grade school, I could not wait until I was able to
read books myself.

There were two main reasons why I wanted to
learn how to read. When I was being read to,
there was an emotional and mental entanglement
for me. Let me explain what I mean.

As I began to listen to the story about the three
bears, I was instantly whisked away to a place in
my mind (my imagination) where I became a
character in the story.

I felt the same feelings that the bears felt... When
they felt hungry, I felt hungry. When they felt
tired, I felt tired. And when they became
surprised, I became surprised.

The descriptive words and imagery used in the
story made the story lifelike. Listening to the story
was like being in a dreamlike state as in a
daydream.

Another thing that makes me want to read was
the expectancy and curiosity factor in reading. No
one likes being left to dry when listening to an
interesting story.

What I mean is that we want to get to the end of
the story. When something stops the reading
causes an expectancy or unfulfilled desire in the
listener. For me two things raise these kinds
feelings; an unanticipated interruption or a multi-
part story.

The best examples are commercials and soap
operas, the bad thing of those is that they are
multi-part. Soap operas are unending stories and
have a dissonant air about them; they make me
feel unsatisfied when the last scene for the day
ends.

The second most meaningful thing that made me
want to read was being able to increase my
knowledge of things.

The day I got my first library card was the most
liberating because books and stories increased my
knowledge. I knew that having access to books
would afford me the freedom to experience the
feelings I felt when I was being read to.

With the difference being that I can now read
what and when I want. Books are knowledge
banks and I yearn for business education.

One time when I was in middle school I took a
class to increase my reading speed and
comprehension. It was the best move I could have
ever made. Not only did I increase my
comprehension and reading speed, my overall
grades went up.

In my freshman year in collage my philosophy
professor gave us a required reading list. As I
remember there were more than 16 books. I had
never had to read that many books.

So I went to work reading the books one by one. I
eventually read them all, but little did I know that
there was a better way to accomplish that task.

Only after many years one of my business tutors
told me the trick to being able to read many books
at once and making money online in business.
When I found out how simple it was, it made me
feel really stupid. My tutor explained it to me and I
never forgot what they said.

They said that your brain is adaptable and when
you force-feed it information, the brain remembers
what you were able to do before. So, the next
time you force-feed you brain even more
information, your brain remembers that too.

To make a long story short, to read and
understand what you read, all you need to do is
to increase the number of books you want to read
and continually increase that number over time.

Right now I can read more than eight books at a
time and comprehend much of what I read. The
trick is to slowly train your brain. A reading
attitude is essential to learning.
