Introduction

This book intends to motivate non-regular readers to overcome previously held inhibitions about reading and not let past experiences keep them away from the gift of reading. There is a deliberate attempt at illustrating the book with plenty of illustrations to tempt word-phobic readers. It helps simplify the reading process and urges the reader through simple techniques to approach reading in a manner that enhances comprehension.

Overcoming Old Habits

This entails giving up some deeply entrenched old habits that are counterproductive and equipping ourselves with better skills. To achieve this, beyond just tips, the book also provides physical tools that help the reader overcome old habits like regression, lack of preview, subvocalizing, slow reading, and self-doubt.

Developing Flexibility and Confidence

It also helps the reader to rise above the bare minimum reading limited to their subject and become flexible readers capable of changing gears when required.

Benefits and Motivation

The benefits of being well read and being able to fight guilt are also highlighted with the intention that having completed this book urges the non-regular reader to continue in their quest of more fulfilling reading. This book intends to help people acquire an altered approach to reading so that parents and significant caretakers in the lives of young learners do not inadvertently demotivate budding readers.

Call to Action

An investment of 100 minutes of your time could make a positive change in how you read and what you do hereafter.
