Enhancing Memory and Reading Speed through Brain Training Techniques

Speaker 2
I love that. OK, I want to do a quick test for myself. So the 10 foods, if you're watching this, just pause and see how many of the 10 foods you can remember. And I'll try to do it quickly myself. So avocado, blueberries, broccoli, olive oil, egg, kale, spinach, salmon, walnuts. Oh, I keep forgetting turmeric, walnuts, chocolate.
Speaker 1
Yeah, you got it. 10 out of 10.
Speaker 2
That's so amazing. 9 out of 10. I kind of missed this.
Speaker 1
And this what I mean. There's no such thing as a good or bad memory. It's a trained memory, an untrained memory. And we did that like an hour ago. And it's still there. So when you learn how your brain works, you can work your brain. And the same thing applies to reading faster, to improving your focus, to getting into flow, all of that. And when people do go to mybrainanimal .com, we will give people protocols and procedures based on their brain type. So you could read, like, create it. Like, dolphins love to read by picturing what they read because they're creative visionaries, right? And so on, teaching people how to remember names and all that fun stuff.
Speaker 2
Okay. I'm quite excited about learning how to read faster because I've always honestly been a very slow reader. I saw the people around me how fast they would read and I am So let me just come to a random page on Limitless. How would I read this faster? So
Speaker 1
the key, we talked about how leaders are readers and reading is an exercise for your mind. And a lot of times people will read a page in a book and forget what they just read. And they'll go back and reread it and still forget what they just read. Or they'll read it so slowly. So let me just dispel a couple myths and then I'll go give you a technique to go through this. So first of all, reading is a skill. It's just we haven't upgraded that skill in some time since we were six or seven years old. Now, the challenge with reading is if people aren't good at it, they probably won't do it very often. And in psychology, there is something called the confidence -competence loop, that the more competent you get at something, the more confident you are.
