Like with a lot of things in life, speed reading can be greatly improved if you spend some time examining your thinking around the subject of reading and getting your thinking right so that you are able to get better results.One of the important things to get sorted out in your thinking is your attitude towards reading and speed reading.I have personally heard people saying in person and in books that you need to have a positive attitude, but they never really talked about what an attitude is and how to get a good one.Well recently I found out what an attitude is made up of and so now I know how to make them more positive. An attitude can be described with the following equation:Attitude = Belief x ValueSo if an attitude is a belief multiplied by your values all you need to do is find out what beliefs you have about reading and speed reading and then find out what values you have about reading and speed reading and then if when you do this you discover you have negative beliefs or values simply change them to more positive beliefs and values and you will see a real change in your speed reading ability.Doing this kind of inner game work is one of those things that you really need to do on a regular basis to get the full benefits from, but it is well worth investing the time into this exercise.Another big piece that is important to work on in order to become a fast speed reader, is to boost your speed reading stamina, your speed reading stamina is the amount of time you are able to read at speed for with good comprehension and recall. Boosting your speed reading stamina will help you to train and recondition your brain to reading at faster speeds and so will allow you to get all of the benefits of speed reading faster.
