Hi guys,
Just a quick opinion-check. I regularly come across authors who brag about their ability to read 300 pages of business-related books in 4-5 hours and digest most of the stuff they read about. Not to mention our legendary Thai Lopez who probably finishes a 500 page book on Quantum Mechanics while taking a dump.
I know the reading speed varies from person to person and depends on the knowledge of a topic , but being able to read like 60 pages for 5 hours in a row and absorb like 80% of content seems unbelievable. I prefer analyzing information and not taking everything for granted - otherwise what's the point of reading the book? Just for the sake of reading?
What are your thoughts on speed-reading?
