speed reading seminar

Got 11 minutes? I’ll show you how to double your reading speed. I was stuck. I had to work during the day, and sometimes at night, and I was working on my graduate degree. That was 28 years ago. I had a family of 4, a dog and a cat, a house and car – and I was burning out fast. I didn’t have a clue how to get through the vast volumes I had to read, and still work and be an active father.
My good friend, Lee, said – why not study speed reading? It WILL change your life. Change my life? It became my life. I studied for 2 years every method I could find. It was easy to learn, and it was making my life easier. I was IMPRESSED! I was at that time that I completed my degree, opened my own practice, and showed people how to improve the quality of their lives.
Positive phrases, positive thoughts, creative visualization, self-hypnosis, and my practice keep growing until there was no room for more. It was time to do a ONE DAY seminar that included my special speed reading techniques. Back then it was 7 hours to get the effect of doubling reading speed and improving comprehension.
Evelyn Wood, the originator of the system in the 1950′s took 23 hours to teach it. It was 1980, I took 7 hours. I was making progress, or so I thought. I applied to teach at college and university continuing education departments – and the first year 9 schools had me come in and teach. It was amazing, the course I taught, Speed Reading Dynamics was sponsored by schools for grants and scholarships so that struggling students would succeed.
Later, it was published as Be Dynamic through Speed Reading.
And, soon I was playing the role of Readers’ Digest editor, and cutting this, and trimming that. It was in 1991 that I taught the first 1 hour speed reading course, 4 techniques, a little theory, some practice, and two self-hypnosis reinforcement techniques. It amazed the users, thousands of copies of Speed Reading in One Hour sold the first, year, then a contract for a Chinese edition with ESL English also, and French, German, Dutch, and Spanish.
Really bored one day, I took three copies of the book, grabbed my niece and two of her friends and said: “I want you guys to read this book and follow the instructions.” ”Oh yeah, forget the last two chapters.” And, I took out my stopwatch and they read — 28 minutes, or less they all finished. They all followed instructions, and timed their reading speed before they began. At the end of 28 minutes, I gave them a short reading test. They doubled or better their reading speeds and increased comprehension 5 to 7%.
Wow, I thought – leave out the last 2 chapters (reinforcement with self-hypnosis) and 3 eleven year old kids can double their reading speed in 28 minutes. 28 Minutes to Faster Reading came out in 2001. And in 2005 I was telling my story of how I developed the course to a friend and he said, why don’t you cut the course down and make it so that anyone can learn in about 10 minutes.
Wow, could that really be done? I sat at my computer and my fingers started working all on their own writing the story, and two superfast techniques, all within 11 minutes. That was easy, then I added on how to write a term paper (thesis) in 10 days or less, and how to read a book. It was a true condensed version of what I taught at college. And, you double reading speed in 11 minutes.
So, it went up for sale and now it’s selling in English and Spanish around the world. Imagine what could be done in just 11 minutes, learn how to save 50% or more of your reading time and accomplish more in less time.
Over the past 11 years, over 100,000 people have learned these methods. Isn’t it time for you to check our 11minutespeedreading.com and see what you can accomplish?

The Seminar (Paperback) $27.59 `The Seminar` is a fiction novel narrated by a cynical out of work aspiring actress recalling her mysterious epoch mesmerizing journey, all of which happens in one spectacular weekend. Every turn she takes, even outside of the seminar room, becomes more surreal than the last. She meets a physically and financially broken down man who somehow intrigues her. His past seminar experiences help guide her through the conceptual complexities and the jargon of the seminar but unusual powers he displays confound her and unravel with spiraling twists. It is of little wonder why the three hundred and fifty people would attend a free weekend seminar titled `50 Passageways To Riches` in an era of global recessions, depressions, down turned economies, high unemployment, and world hunger. There is a dichotomy though where people still have the dreams and the urges to become successful entrepreneurs when the global mindset has been instilled with such low confidence. `The Seminar` provides far more than just fifty passageways to riches. Mentors, gurus, seminar leaders, provocative and prolific teachers present themselves throughout the entire weekend providing insight that not only she witnesses, but the reader may also get what is commonly found in a seminar experience. That would be what addresses the positive elicited changes in the essence of the psyche, the consciousness, or perhaps self-perception, all of which are capable of transforming even the unemployed layman into a successful entrepreneur. Anyone who has never experienced attending a seminar on any form of personal achievement, which can cost, and be worth, thousands of dollars, can get a good feel of one here. Anyone who has experienced such a seminar will find this one quite unique and very special. The author has been attending seminars since the 1960`s on a wide spectrum of subjects, many of which he covers in the `Passageways to Riches,` while telling a uniqu |
