Is one of your motivations for learning to speed read the idea that you’ll finally be able to go back to all of the “really good books” your high school teachers recommended – those books you couldn’t get through back then because it was taking you so long to read them? Well, even though learning to read quickly is an excellent idea, using your new speed reading skill to read books that aren’t very interesting or very good might be a waste of time, even if the time spent is markedly shorter than it would have been before. That’s not to say that all books on a “required reading” list should be ignored, but now that you’re an adult, you can read things that you want to read, not just what someone tells you you should read.
The reason we brought this is up is because we read this entertaining article on why focusing on the “should read” list might actually prove to be a disincentive to reading. After all, just because something goes by quicker doesn’t mean it’s enjoyable. Everyone has different likes and dislikes when it comes to reading material, and you should allow yourself to say “no, thank you” if you don’t like a book, even if it’s recommended by Oprah or a good friend or your local library. It’s great to get suggestions, but if you’re not enjoying the material, what’s the point?
One way that speed reading skill does help is that if there truly is something that you have to read, being able to do that reading in half the time cuts the boredom factor by 50% as well. You’ll be able to get through material you’re not especially interested in more quickly, which will leave more time for the books you enjoy. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you should stick with easy texts all the time. One of the best ways to improve your reading speed is to pick challenging texts, or ones on topics that are new to you. Your brain will be forced to focus, and that will hone your reading skills even more quickly.
