Really Smart-Stuff
1. Dr. Russ Hurlburt, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, produced the following
original research on the contents of ‘stream-of-consciousness’. All the stuff that is going on in your mind 24 hours a day – all kinds of thoughts, ideas and dialogue flash through our mind. Some of it is brilliant, and unless we record it on-the-spot, is gone-forever, and some of it is garbage - to justify ourselves in an argument.
The name and original work for ‘stream-of-consciousness’ was by Professor William James, at Harvard, 1890, and is still cited.
Dr. Hurlburt reported in 2001, and had published in, ‘Trends in Cognitive Neuroscience’ the following:
a) Subvocalization (dialogue) constitutes 32% of our stream-of-consciousness.
b) Visualizations (single pictures or mental-movies), 25%
c) Symbol-free intuition (snap ideas and creativity), 25%
d) Emotional reactions (anger, anxiety, fear, frustration and pleasure), is 18%.
So What?
The average college graduate in he U.S. hears ‘the-still-small-voice’ reading
the text to us as we study and learn – 100% of time. It wastes over 90 minutes
daily of reading-time, and can be reduced by two-thirds for greater productivity.
SpeedLearning graduates all-but eliminate the ‘dialogue’ of subvocalization by
reading too fast for the Speed of Speech. We read at the Speed-of-Sight, and can
complete and remember three-books, articles and reports in the time others can
finish even one. One of our core-strategies is reduction of our ‘sub-vox’.
2. Why Our Own Voice is So Vital to Learning
If you want to become a super-star in school, and take your personal-growth to
the ‘genius’ level, you must summarized the gist of what you are learning on a
daily basis into a Mini-Recorder. It is not the beauty of your own voice that
does it, but the fact that it is in fact - your ‘own’ voice. Your own voice has a
separate neuropathway in your brain for instant recognition because your brain
‘believes’ and takes orders from your voice – over and beyond anyone else’s voice.
“What you say is the law and indisputable because you are the ‘boss-of-you’. When
you want to add something new to permanent long-term memory, your voice makes
it memorable and an order to your brain. Not your mother, father, significant-other
has the power over your brain like your own-voice. Use it on a daily basis for
whatever you want to learn by dictating and listening to your mini-recorder.
It turns you into a brilliant-star, and raises your grades to Dean’s List if you do it
regularly and long-term.
The special neuropathway located in your brain for recognizing voices is
the Superior-Temporal-Sulcus, good-old STS. “Sulcus” is < L for trench or furrow.
Ranked #1 is your own voice, with the instruction to act on its instructions.
Check out the “Wheaties” promotions for 150 words on why you ‘luv’ Wheaties,
breakfast-of-champions. It works because when you write – you ‘hear’ the words
in your ‘mind’s-ear’.
The specific neuroconnection for recognizing ‘faces’ and relating them to identity
is the Occipito-Temporal-Gyrus, also called the “Fusiform-Gyrus”. “Gyrus” is < L
for ring.
Yes, your own face is the most important identification to your brain, and
all the other faces in your life are reconstructed at the OTG too.
3. How to Ace Lectures
When you attend a lecture – always take to sets of notes, the first on the core
ideas of the speaker, and the second – the stream-of-consciousness information-
processing flashing past your mind. When you list on paper all the
Dialogue, pictures, intuitions and emotions your right-brain is processing – the
mere awareness of them ends their existence as a “distraction” from the speaker’s
talk. Additionally, a dynamic idea or two can be captured before it disintegrates.
Yes, summarize the gist of the lecture and the ‘stream-of-consciousness’ into your
mini-recorder for subsequent feedback.
4. What Are the Key Strategies of SpeedLearning?
First, is learning to ‘divide’ (chunk) the sentences while reading left-to-right,
dextrosinisral (right-to-left), that’s right, reading in reverse, and while reading ‘obliquely’, “Z for Zorro”.
Second, exercises to enlarge the “Percpetual-Span” of the muscles of your
‘peripheral-vision’. The average college graduate reads one-word-at-a-time because
his visual ‘perceptual-span’ is only six-letters at a time in the ‘foveal-centralis’.
SpeedLearner can read using much of the entire capacity of 6-35 letters simultaneously called ‘perceptual-span’ of the foveal-centralis, the area of the retina
with the sharpest acuity of reading focus. We read three-words per fixation, unlike the snailer’s one-word, and we can read and comprehend up to six-words with each
eye-stop on the sentence.
If you read only sinistrodextro – left-to-right, you are wasting up to two-hours daily
in what is called – “blind-flow”, while SpeedLearners use “trace-flow” to save up to
three-hours of reading time – daily. Our brain is capable of reading both left-to-right, and right-to-left (with full comprehension), and ‘obliquely’, also known as
‘diagonally’. These two-strategies – change you from a struggling reading who processes information – like-a-snail, to SpeedLearning – reading like a ‘master’
scholar.
Beginner’s Luck
Yes, Virginia, there really is a logical reason why first-timers without experience
and often with limited cognition, ace the situation and circumstances.
The less rules we have in mind – and simply permit our right-brain to offer its input
of intuition, pattern-recognition, imagination and creativity, the great access we have to new approaches that are original and often are very effective.
We are not advocating ‘ignorance’, merely ‘getting-in-the-flow, in-the-zone, in order
to create ‘peak-performances’. They occur only when we include our right-brain’s
input into the equation instead of solely relying on our left-brain skills of order and
logical skills.
Try a ‘cold-reading’ and let your right-brain push-the-buttons based on feelings and
emotions, spatial-skills, and on-the-spot decision-making. Brilliant writing, acting and even testing often results. Learn the core-points and then ‘fling-it-out’.
One last bit of info for you to process – our conscious mind handles 16 bits of information per second. Sound like a lot, right?
Our non-conscious mind processes “eleven-million” bits of information every second. This includes what our senses are reporting, the behavior of our motor-cortex, muscle-activity, and all our emotions. Remember, all of this is on ‘auto-pilot’, so our conscious-mind can devote itself to ‘cognition’ and maybe creativity.
Integrate both conscious and non-conscious brains and we have the best of both worlds.
Thanks for listening.
