Do you already have soft focus?

How to Triple Your Reading Speed ​​- Permanently

Our eyes automatically (instinctively) follow a moving object.

1. Baby step:

a) To triple your reading speed and double your memory (and comprehension), permanently: The first step is to get into the habit of using a Pacer while you read.

b) A Pacer is one of three types: a portable laser beam (RasterMaster),

a ballpoint pen, and a computer cursor, produced with your mouse.

c) The objective in using any of the three Pacers is to underline the words of the
sentences as you read. When using your pen as a pacemaker, retract the tip or underline the pen half an inch above the paper.

d) You will notice that the Pacer (RasterMaster, Pen or Cursor), always moves
faster than your sight reading speed. Set the pace to speed up your reading.

e) Has been reading one word at a time since 3rd grade, reinforced daily
for many years. The Pacer prompts you to read two to three words at a time instead of
its usual one word at a time. Notice how your eyes automatically try to catch up with the Pacer (the moving object). It is an instinct of your eyes and brain.

f) You are creating a new habit of moving your eyes in soft focus instead of narrow hard focus. You are learning to read using your wide-focus Peripheral Vision, instead of the narrow Foveal Vision you learned in 3rd grade.

g) Your eyes focus on the top halves of the words, not the movement.
of the Pacer you are using. Your eyes pick up the Pacer’s movement highlight using your natural peripheral vision.

h) It has two basic reading systems: one is Foveal-Vision: reading a word
at a time (6 letters wide). You have been reading foveally since 3rd grade and
it’s slow, about 200 words per minute.

The second is Peripheral-Vision: it is 36 letters wide and allows you to read up to six words at a time. The word – peripheral – means off center – seeing the left and right sides as well as the center, and what appears above and below
the center

i.) Soft focus relaxes the eyes and widens the field of view to see two or
more words simultaneously. The opposite of soft focus is a narrowing of your
field of view, and called Tunnel-Vision hard focus. A horse with blinders
go with Foveal-Vision and Hard-Focus.

Hard-Focus is how you see when you use your computer, type on your word processor, watch a movie, play a video game, or hold a conversation while looking into the other person’s eyes.

We focus on the page, screen, or person by narrowing the focus of our eyes to give the behavior (reading, surfing the Internet, and watching TV) our full attention.

Using a hard focus during reading causes us to move like a snail because we can only see a single multi-syllable word at a time. It limits us up to 200 words per minute.

Profound Fact: We spend up to 80% of our waking hours using hard focus, squinting and narrowing our field of vision. It is the basic cause of chronic stress and dry eye.

The solution is not to stop using the computer or the television, but to exercise your peripheral vision for sixty seconds every thirty minutes. Look away from the screen, page or person towards the horizon and widen your field of vision.

When reading, it means gently focusing and reading two or three words at a time.

2. a) Choose a page with text and circle each multi-syllable word in a sentence. See how slow and boring it is to read that way. In the average sentence there are ten words, and you mentally read and listen to all ten multi-syllable words.

Your eyes linger on each word, you listen to it, then move on to the next.
Each stop is called an Eye Fixation Pause.

b) Take another page of text and circle each group of two words in the sentence.
If there are ten words, you will have five circles of two words each.

Notice that you can easily look at the circle containing two words and see
both words simultaneously. If you can see them, you are using Soft-focus and it widens your field of view.

Your eyes can see up to six words at a time and transfer them to your brain for understanding.

If you read two words simultaneously, you double your reading speed
and you can reduce your reading time by 50% or read and understand two books,
articles and reports – instead of one. Guess what happens when you read three
words at a time?

3. Draw a line down the left side of a new page of text and indent it about two words wide; do the same: indent by drawing a line down the page in the
right side of the text page – about two words wide.

Now use your Pacer to underline the middle section of the text using a soft focus. Your peripheral vision will pick up and understand words within the two marked areas (lateral left and lateral right), and even above and below the center of your reading focus.

Practice reading a page of text that you have bled to improve your soft focus (widening your field of vision) and to widen your range of peripheral vision.

final words

Practice improving your soft focus and peripheral vision until they become
clothing. Use your Pacer to move your eyes faster, and in 21 days of practicing just 15 minutes a day, you’ll double or triple your current starting reading speed with equal or better comprehension.

Yes, it will be frustrating at first because you have been programmed.
from 3rd grade to read one word at a time and stop to listen to it in their mind.

You are creating a new habit of broadening your focus and reading two or
more words at once. It requires daily practice for three weeks, and then
registration on autopilot. Once they are habits, you stop thinking about them and add them to your mental programming.

Once you make soft focus and peripheral vision a habit, you’ll be able to
triple your reading speed and improve your long term comprehension
memory.

The secret tool is always using a Pacer to activate the instinct of your eyes and brain.
to follow a moving object. His hand holding the Pacer-RasterMaster, Pen,
o Cursor: always moves faster than your snail reading speed. your brain
start playing – Catch-Up – and your reading speed and comprehension double
and triple compared to the snail in one word at a time.
