Now you finished that pretty dense, heavy material about how your brain a memory works. We're now going to look at why we use visual images during speed reading. They say a picture's worth 1000 words, or to be precise, it's worth 30,000. And that's per second. And you're going to be surprised. I'm going to show you exactly how in just three seconds.
So take a look at this picture. And then list all the things you can remember from it. You'll be surprised by how much as you remember, and yet we only put that picture up for three seconds. Now what exactly happened was your limbic brain took in the color, the emotions you felt, and the uniqueness of the images you saw in that picture. Now they say that you don't even remember 30% of what I'm telling you right now. Tomorrow, but if I add images, you remember a fantastic 60% by just adding visual images.
To join speed reading, we need to make sure this is consistent. Whether you're listening to audiobooks, or listening to YouTube videos, you need to make sure that you're constantly making visual images of the words you're hearing. Make this a habit. need to do this daily, not just when reading, listening as well.
