Use this technique

1

Look for people, actions, objects, qualities, numbers, and ideas.

2

Allow words such as the, a, an, of, to, and to stay in soft attention.

3

Move forward smoothly. Avoid rereading unless meaning is genuinely lost.

4

Read for meaning, not merely speed. A short comprehension check follows.

Important: Do not completely remove small words. Notice them lightly while giving stronger attention to the words that carry the message.

The passage appears after a 3-second countdown. The timer starts automatically.
