Scott Young wrote about doubling your reading rate. I have tried many practices myself, and they actually make a big difference. I especially liked his 5th point – find your motivation! Over the next five months, I have more than 15 books scheduled to be read, and it’s really important for me to read faster! For anybody who spends a good amount of time reading – emails, sites or books – try these principles out. They work!

you surely need to optimize ur reading habits now given you have take time out for other social events 🙂
You bet! Had to finish “8th Habit” yesterday, and I am still 1/3rd to go. And I am adding “Getting Things Done” on the list!
Just found an article about the PX Project – a research project done in Princeton University in 1998. They figured out techniques to increase the reading speed by 3 times – in 20 minutes!
Haven’t tried it myself yet, but it looks interesting!
