250 WPM is roughly what most adults read at.

A typical non-fiction book is 70,000 words. At 250 WPM, reading an hour a day, that's ~5 hours to finish one book.

Speed readers who hit 500+ WPM finish in under 2.5 hours. Same comprehension — often better, because they lose less context between sessions.

The biggest blocker isn't ability. It's two habits most readers never fix:

1. Subvocalization — reading every word out loud in your head. It caps your speed at speaking pace (~150 WPM). You don't need to "hear" words to understand them. Training your eyes to chunk phrases instead of individual words is what breaks this ceiling.

2. Regression — re-reading lines you already passed. It feels like comprehension, but it's usually anxiety. A trained pacer eliminates this completely.

These aren't tricks. They're skills. Both are trainable in 2-3 weeks with focused drills.

If you're a student, researcher, or professional who reads more than 30 minutes a day — the ROI here is massive.

Hey, glad you're here.

Here's exactly what to do first:

1. Start the Speed Reading Course

Head over to the "Speed Reading Course" tab. Work through Module 1 first — don't skip ahead. The foundations matter.

2. Run your baseline test

Before you change anything, test your current reading speed. There's a drill in the course to do this. Save your number — you'll want to compare in 2 weeks.

3. Practice daily (20 min is enough)

Consistency beats intensity. 20 focused minutes a day will compound fast. More than most people do in a week.

4. Use the Community Chat

Post your baseline WPM in the chat. Accountability works. Others are on the same path.

If you hit a wall or have questions, drop it in the chat and I'll respond.
