One of the things that I find as an Internet marketer is that there is ALWAYS a backlog of information that I need to read. It seems that as soon as I finish one report or 10-page sales letter, there are two more on my back burner that I also need to read.

I think it is important to stay up to date, but I also see that it DOES take away from my actual income-producing efforts.

I found this cool speed reading tool the other day, and I actually think it can be helpful if used the right way. Here’s how it works: You enter in a body of text, and how fast you want to read it, and then click go. The tool will scroll through the words in a single spot on your screen at the speed you entered.

OK, it may sound weird, and it definitely takes some getting used to. But, I think that if you do get used to it it could save you a bunch of time with all that online reading material.

The truth is most of the time the stuff we need to read can be skimmed for the main points. It is generally NOT deep intellectual writing. Try inserting the text of your next long ebook into the tool. You will get the main parts much more quickly than if you just read it on your own. If you determine that you need to understand it in greater depth after you run it through the tool, you can always print it out and spend as much time as you like with it.

I also think that challenging your brain to comprehend quicker than you are used to is a good exercise for your overall brain-power anyway!
