So much information, so little time to read it. In this age there is more information than ever before. There is not enough time to read everything we want to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speedreading. The first thing about speedreading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Don’t say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speedreading. The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speedreading requires technique.

This will help your understanding of the text. You need something to guide your eyes while reading. You should use your finger. Move your finger smoothly across the page. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide. This will increase your speed. The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect.

Scientifically it is difficult to state the causes of love. Still love can do miracles. It does not cost anything to share and give love. True love always multiplies itself and never reduces. Now the question arises — how to tell true love from fake love. This question has a very simple answer. We can never know the real feeling of the other people, but we don’t need to worry about it. If our own feelings are true then it is definitely a true love. We do not need other people’s acceptance or approval for it. In love it matters only that we are ready to give. It is very easy to give love to others and we will always get many times more love in return. However, there is one condition, that is, our love should be f
