- Whether you are an ambitious student or someone who wants to evolve their learning strategy to become an authority in your niche/business idea, Photoreading can provide a fun and alternative way to accelerate your learning.
With so many books available on the market for any given subject it is common for people to feel overwhelmed with the projects which require high volumes of reading. So how can we have enough time and energy to read them all? The good news is that anyone can learn how to Photoread up to 25,000 words per minute (a page per second), whilst improving intellectual confidence and having fun.
So in this video I share with you:
1) My personal story for how Photoreading changed my life
2) How Photoreading works and a demonstration of the 5 step process
The purpose of this video is to help you establish how this powerful strategy can work for you. So press the play button to learn more :)

I took the whole. course with Paul Scheele. It works. No doubt. Stop thinking about it, criticizing it. If you have the training and actually do it then you will know that it works quite well.
I think the problem is they make it seem like you can photo read a book in a minute and remember the whole book. That's not true, and it's possible you won't consciously retain anything, so I understand why people scream that it's a scam. HOWEVER, your subconscious will retain everything and it will be stored in your mind. Over time and from photo reading hundreds or thousands of books, your brain processing, memory, clarity, etc. will become extremely powerful. Your overall IQ will increase and learning the subjects you photo read will be very easy.
This is an example of what photo reading does for me. Let's say I take a subject I know nothing about, like car engines. I'll photo read a couple books, the more pages and more detailed the better. The next day I'll look at a car engine and after some time it'll "click" for me. I'll understand the big picture of car engines and make associations to many other things. Now it'll be a matter of consciously learning the "parts" or details of car engines. That will come easy since you already have the big picture figured out. Compare that to regular education which teaches you parts and hopes you figure out the big picture. No wonder so many people struggle.
Your subconscious is holistic. Photo reading is a holistic method. Therefore it's results will come in holistic ways. If you expect for the data to immediately come to your conscious mind, it won't, since it's left brained. Over time you will gain tremendous insight and will spew out "golden nuggets" about everything, and your view of the "big picture" will grow since you will become holistically intelligent. It's not something Western civilization understands at this point in our development (West = Left (brained), East = Right (brained)). You also learn that what you surround yourself with makes up what you think. By putting every page of every subject in front of you, your mind expands. Compare this to people who only look at Facebook videos and memes all day, watch empty TV shows, and fear mongering news. No wonder the average person is so simple. Now you have the secret to success (surround yourself with it), positivity (surround yourself with it), etc. Even better, all the subjects that I gave up on and thought were impossible for me (calculus, music, sales, physics, etc.) feel easy.
Storngly agreed on this one. There are no perfect methodologies, every method have their own roles to play. In this case photoreading plays it roles on the right brain (the bigger view, a vision), normal reading is more on the left brain (detailed).
Hey, we don't know each other, but my name's Evan. I hope you'll read this comment eventually. Could you do me a favor and send me an email at Evanwilliams256@gmail.com ? I need advice on the topic of photoreading. Thanks in advance
I am glad to hear that this system work. I have tried photoreading several times with no results. I don't know if I am doing something wrong, or the system does not work at all, or perhaps it does not work for me because I am too left-brained. I didn't know if I have to give up or to insist more until I get results. However, I would prefer a speed reading technique that leaves me with a concious memory of what I have read.
I've been photo/speed reading since my early teens and I'm 32 now. So I can give my HONEST input from experience. If your doing easy reads ie, books that are stories, magazine's even scientific journal review, you can do photoreading It's not rocket science. It's just a lot of practice after time, you'll gain confidence. Certain material you can't speed read, because your going to have to stop and let your brain sort it out and actually memorize, like Pathology books, and books that contain facts that need to be memorized and reviewed multiple times. over and over.
I may have been able to read say...60 pages of path in several minutes, I was able to grasp concepts and ideas, I formed an outline in my head. But I sure as hell didn't memorize the receptors, names, actions and clinical correlation and did a comparison to others from that one read. It would take me several runs and needed to reviewed several times.
News that matter what was the technique you used?
So, i have a little question... How i read in Photo Reading? Okay we have the Photofocus and all of that but How do we read really?
Do we read from the up to the down or what?
That confuses me.
@@antonmahl2407 when you photo read you don't actually read at all. You relax at first and then use peripheral vision to see all four corners of the book and flip through pages. The idea behind this is that your subconscious mind will store everything it will be exposed to. It won't be available to you (conscious mind) though unless you use the other essential steps of the process mentioned in the video.
Can you tell me
You used “your” instead of “you’re”. How much do you really read? It’s difficult for me to take your comment seriously
The people that say photo reading is a bunch of crap and whatever are the people that are living in a limitation mindset. They need to get out of their heads because this stuff really works. I photo read my psych book the day before the test and past the test with a B. I like to mention I never paid any attention in class because I badly wanted to test this out. If you are open minded you will get it. In all honesty it is a paradigm shift. The key is to have a open mind. If your cynical individual or narrow minded individual or lazy individual then photo reading is not for YOU!
Hey I have a question : how much time and in which way did you learn photoreading? I can only agree with your phrase saying that people live in a limitation mindest, on the other hand they don't do this without reason, because everything not "normal" to close minded people is mostly interpreted as bad, sick or criminal because they want to live in a save world. Their save world only consist of things they already learned and are normal to them, thats why it is so difficult to teach old person how to use a computer...
What courses / Books you used to learn and how long did it take you to master??
I took the program over 20 years ago and never got it to work.
I'm going to try it again.
Thank you for your help.
Just finished the book. In my opinion the only part in the book that isn't useful is the photoreading technique. Its full of circular logic, made up anecdotes and NLP inspired persuasive language but if you can stomach being told to Imagine yourself doing something over and over than there are some useful bits of information in it.
Clarify what you want to learn, browse the overall structure of the book like contents page and density, then speed reading through it looking for key themes/ideas and use a mind map to write these down to aid in memory retention.
Than there is synoptic reading which involves using that process over a large number of books or articles simultaneously, to find similar and conflicting ideas and analyzing them to get an in depth understanding of the topic.
The photoreading technique itself involves more or less going cross eyed and flipping through a book back to front and upside down and then going to bed so ya...
Overall i found the book useful however i would of preferred if it was honest and just called itself a manual on how to read efficiently and left the photoreading out. But having said that i only bought it cause of the idea i could photoread. So in that sense its like hiding the broccoli in the chocolate cake. Got me and i'm glad i ate the broccoli.
1. psychological component: Motivated (concentrate, correct environment)
2. technical component: repetition (page flipping, highlighted words, raise questions, first/last sentence of paragraphs, etc.)
3. mysterious component: whatever you say.
Analogy: how to enjoy at an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Thank you. Now i finally understand how to do photoreading. For now, this is best video out there. Other videos only tell you how owesome is photoreading etc. but you actually explained how it works. :)
You can discuss about the actual photoreading part, the magic part, whether it works or not. For me this was not the most interesting point. I actually also felt after the photoreading part that the words felt 'softer' and it gave a feeling (real or imagined) that i already had seen the text. It was ok, but no superhuman. BUT...
The interesting part was for me the next part. In stead of reading a book from the beginning until the end, now reading it in layers. Beginning with the whole picture, the chapter titles, bold words, sentences that pop up while browsing through the book, asking all relevant questions what the book is about, how it works etc., and again going through it, reading only the parts that catch your eye to answer all your questions.
This layer approach of a book is the brilliant part of this technique. It follows the way our brain works. We need to start with the framework and then fill in the details. And by asking questions you force yourself to understand the subject.
I have read so many books from the beginning to until the end, in my school days, and i remember that often at the end of the book, i had forgotten about the first chapters. It took ages, it was so difficult and I always kept a fragmented way of learning the subject, never understanding the big picture.
With this technique it becomes so much easier and pro active. Just try it and see for yourself.
So my suggestion: stop saying that this technique doesnt work at all.
Include the photoreading part, but most of all: enjoy this wonderful layer approach that makes so much more sense!
I must say after years of wanting to photo read it's finally here and I am stoked. it's true it is so true you can photo read but the key ingredient is You Must Believe. and Don't Stop Believing. what happens is You Keep On Believing even in the mist of your frustration your memory gets better
this is awesome
gracias muy bueno tu video y explicación
I ĺove the photoreading and you too Love ❤
Thanks for sharing....this is encouraging..
Thanks for sharing this video. I definitely plan on learning this soon.
一目十行 Yi Mu Shi Hang is a Chinese idiom that literally means to take in ten lines at a glance. Which means to read rapidly. The concept of photoreading/zoxing/super speed reading is a right brain function that uses the rapid processing speeds of the right brain. Taking in information as a visual whole. When you look at the world you see it as a whole instead of seeing it piece by piece as we do when reading therefore it is not totally out of possibility that taking in vast amounts of information at a glance is possible.
Modern Science can try to use all their arguments to try to disprove this human ability, however how many times has science been wrong throughout history? Therefore I see no reason to have such absolute faith in scientists who have not used the techniques themselves for a sustained period of time. Almost like a person telling you that beyond the mountain is the end of the world.
True.
This is a great, consise and efficient video. Thank you!! I'm subscribing tor your channel!
nice one
I believe it because I taught myself to draw right hand brain method. At one stage I could draw an image from the screen in fineliner you need to have a very intimate and detailed understanding of the image and all the aprts and how they fit together in a visual. I think peoples concept that its like magic is kinda why they think it doesnt work. the brain is a muscle and it takes time to learn to use it.
Thank you !!!
Selling meath here !!!
I have adult ADD and find it quite difficult to retain what I read. I believe, though, that if I learn ways to learn faster, I'll be able to remember more things (including mnemonics). So, I'm willing to learn this method as well as other speed techniques such as speed/rapid math, gregg shorthand (to take faster notes), mind mapping, etc.,
It is said that one needs to have about 10,000 hours to master in a field. If I can perform all these speed techniques, I'm certain that I could cut that time in half or more
@@michaelschweigart3517 did it work?
good man... good explanation... i had been looking for someone to break down the steps in a simple video that wasn't too too long and here you did it bro.. im just confused on the activation step.. i have the book and i know about dipping and super reading and all that.. but you just randomly pick sections to read based on just cuz u think it would be a good section to read.. and then magically the answer is there... haha i guess i haven't even tried it.. all ive been doing is learning how to do it but haven't put it into practice.. i hope this works man.. i think it would change my life too! But good video again
I agree! Thanks for sharing the steps!
I honestly can't believe how rude a lot of people are being in the comments, but the people that came with a good heart to learn really enjoyed it and thank you!!
Veronica Davis Yea, good call! Im ready to learn, try it out without judgment and see if it works. Most of these comments' minds wont even suspend disbelief to try. Good luck to the both of you on your learning.
Veronica Davis Precisely. I learned photoreading and nowadays read between 10-15 books every day. Before I learned this technique I was flipping burgers at McDonald's and couldn't speak proper English. I learned to photoread, got Ph.D's in quantum biology and cognitive neurophysics, co-authored a book on advanced structural and biochemistrical analysis of oxes' feces and applied syncretic black magic, am on $6000+ monthly earnings from teaching my skills to people, and generally find I'm saving a lot of time just photoreading through shitty Tom Clancy thrillers that I used to spend hours on. Really makes you feel sad for all those "professionals" who spent years learning their stuff when I know I could replace them after a week's study. If they get bored of their job they could always buy consultation from me. Let the haters hate.
***** interesting!
How long did you take to learn it, and did you take classes?
I've been trying, unfortunatly not for to long, but see the dynamics of the whole thing and understand the basics, and I believe/know the power of the subconciouss. Since I'm into alternative energies etc, it's not hard to grasp that this works! Just call it "physical limitations" at this point etc :)
Do you have any tips, which from your observation, that worked better for you?
Can you teach me pls? I've been trying but its harder than i thought and can you give me your gmail or something. So I can speak in private.
Can you photoread ebooks? Most techs apply to regular paper books that are getting less frequent due to convenient access to ebooks. Speedreading is similar but for electronics speedreading there is rsvp apps
Pauls,s photo reading book is sufficient for learning or we need extra info. from other sources. if any kindly mention them or self study methods
I have been involved in reading computing technical books, that are 1500+ pages. which are sections in many parts, and chapters to help learn computer programming.
How does this approach allow readers of this type of learning material? Due to the amount of ongoing shifting in thinking, trying to absorb the heavy contents meaning, and the complex degree of theory.
I started photoreading 2 days back and Two questions are just troubling me:
1. I can see and maintain blip but the page is not as clear, is it alright because when I focus on page while maintaining blip, I can only read the centre word.
2. I tried activation but super reading, skittering and mind maps but can't really understand the basics. How can I improve?
hey. what if the reason im reading a book isnt as specific as wanting to know the answer to a question. for example. what if i am trying to learn how to drive. but i dont have time to read the entire book the traditional way. if i photo read the drivers manual. will i retain enough information to be able to write my drivers exam?
When you go through the book, on the post view you'll start to form questions about things you are not certain of or want to know more about.
Use those questions to help you find information in the book
Then start doing practise tests and see how well you answer the questions.
Alright Jez
Have you every wondered how some people are able to read and capture information faster that you can? It's because of the techniques they use. This 5 step process devised by Paul Scheele utilizes 90% of the brain's activity in order to allow people to read at 25,000 words per minute. When I discovered how this work for me it was life changing. Enjoy the video and please share with anyone you feel will benefit :)
And how do you know that it utilizes 90% of the brain''s activity??
ForsakenGod96 he doesn't, he just wrote a random number. fact is, most of the brain is always utilized.
Warning text written below is written just to get some thoughts out of the writers head, it has low credibility but if you don't mind that you can always read for a laugh:
Indeed reading is a skill you can train, but like everything else in life. its not easy, the highest reading speeds by the autistic are 10k words per minute, that's rainman speed. More normal people have records in the 4500 range. In other words, yes you can train reading and yes you can easily reach much higher speeds than the average person that doesn't train. But you have to train it often to keep the speed up, just like learning to type faster. You have to train comprehension to do it as well. There are tons of techniques on how to read faster. Its probably a good idea to learn a lot of them, if you want to read faster. You can read a ridiculously high speed in no time, but you are likely to lose it just as fast. Also you are likely to want this enough to lie to yourself. So you don't actually read that fast, because your comprehension will be lower. It takes a lot of training to become a speed reader. Good news though, is that is all it takes. If you want to become several times faster than other people at reading, you just have to train like athletes have to train to become several times stronger, than the average person. Its always a good thing to remember that technique is extraordinarily important, and while you can learn much from tips, you won't really learn much unless you find something that works for you, set goals, and train the right way. People who train in gyms should know this well. Unfortunately, accelerated learning, isn't widely acknowledged. Thus not a lot of information is out on it, I have no idea whether photo reading actually works, since I don't use it myself. but I have heard many claims on the subconscious mind over the years, as have we all. Also it is notable that after some time, they are usually disproved. Fun thing is though that I do use what here is called photo reading, in order to train what I can perceive when I read, as in how many sentences at once I can read with low comprehension. Its also a good thing to note I'm a novice within this field I haven't even reached a natural reading speed with high comprehension of 1500 wpm yet, although I'm getting closer week by week, I see a long road ahead.
RomeTWguy Are you a Doctor? How do you know this? Where is your scientific proof of just spouting off this information because normally humans only use 10% or under of there brain. Instead of just spouting off information you pulled form your ass back it up with links etc.
swordfish00007 I am not a doctor, and in fact the OP was the one spouting random nonsense. studies carried out using mri scans and common sense tell us the we most of the brain.

can I know how long it take to know how to photo reading ?
how many books per day need to read?
How to read ebook on laptop, is there any tips pls?
hey paul....... does photoreading useful for mathematics ?
Some years ago I saw a video on CZcams of a guy teaching some techniques of memorizing mathematical formulas.
I have to read the sane paragraph 4 or 5 times just to understand it... Is there something wrong with me?
depending on what you read.
can't believe you wrote that man!!!
I believe in magic...MAGIC!
Lmao. I love this comment
1) Prepare
2) Preview
3) Photoread
4) Postview
5) Activation
6) Believe that it works ( It does believe me ) But the mechanism for that part in the brain that holds beliefs also needs to be activated as it is harder to remember something you don't believe in, learning is easier when you believe in what you are doing makes a difference to your life, so believe that this process will make a difference, the magic is to wait and see the magic happening when you get pleasantly surprised.
Hey! I need help in photoreading
Can u help me
Hey Paul do you have a class on Photoreading or teach this 1 on 1?
I wish so as well
hi Paul, a quick question, is it still working with you till now? :)
Should I photoread one book at a time, or can I photo read many books straight and then take a rest?
Read all the books you want.
There seem to be a lot of people crying about this being a hoax and claiming that photoreading is fake. I can truly say from my personal experience that though it took a long time to really get used to and master, my life has changed dramatically since learning this method . I can read a 700 page novel cover to cover in 10 seconds and remember the author, the title and even the publisher after one reading. Simply amazing!
I am impressed.
I couldn’t turn over 700 pages, without reading them, in 10 seconds!
can you give me tips base on your experience
It is hard to believe what you said in your comments as there is not any proof how can we believe that within 10 seconds you read whole book just in 10 seconds until you upload any such video.
lol
I see the words blurry when I photoread... is this normal? what should I do?
That's good. Leave it a day and activate. If you can see the words your not subconsciously taking them in. If you can't see the words but they are blurry your subconscious is taking them in.
Its very weird but it works.
daz samuels Can you explain it please ? Does it really works coz i'm not able to recall the information which i photoread :|
貌似可以增加信心
This is for making money? or real? I haven't seen anyone who's really proved that theory.
derren brown did a thing about it and it worked for him so i think it is a real thing
but im pretty sure this guy is talking bullshit and this is not the way to do it
John Ham Derren Brown himself has written in his book that Photoreading is bullshit. Book name - Tricks of the mind.
Thumbs up if Derren Brown brought you here
not really specific answers ? 9:13 ?
Mmmm tangerines.
What if there was a way to read a technical manual in 10 minutes? A book in 5 minutes? A magazine in 1 minute? Give me $100 and I'll show you how!😂😂😂
I don't understand, how does having a floating tangerine above your head help you concentrate?
You are a big guy and you don't look it but you're smart and you read lol :)
Expanded vision technique worked i saw the sausage :)
Gonna try photo reading Donald Trumps book
how? I didnt understand that part...
I don't understand a word. Where are you from?
Anna Brown That’s strange. I am from Mexico English is my second language, and I understand him perfectly. Perhaps you have to pay closer attention and not loose interest just because someone has an accent.
A lot of nay sayers in the comments section. Regardless of what the majority seem to think I've seen good results with photoreading
+Theodore Woodford
ok Theodore then make a video showing its legit. WE ARE TIRED OF THESE GARBAGE VIDEOS.
+Dean Beyer What's the point? There are so many videos and the comments sections are just full of people that don't have the patience to work it out for themselves. If you want a tip, it's an exercise in trusting your intuition.
Theodore. When you grow balls to make a test that this works because the only videos on youtube are testimonials i will pay you $50 to your paypal account. But you have to have 70% or more retention and read 1 page per second
That's not how photoreading works... the photoreading stage is only a part of the system. It's iterative passes at increasing levels of detail. Consider it like the concepts within the book being resolved higher and higher as you choose what is important to assimilate. It's not just scan a book and know it.
Prepare - Preview - Photoread - Postview - Activate.
Essentially, you ascertain your purpose for reading, see what it is that you're expecting to get out of the material, if that's specific topics or concepts or a general sense of theme etc. What then follows is a scan of contents pages, flipping through the book for headers/illustrations/index and things like that.
THEN you do the photoread and you might choose to do it in multiple passes or come back and scan certain passages at a slower rate.
Then the postview takes around 15 minutes to reconsider your purpose, find trigger words relating to your questions or interests on the topic.
Finally, after putting the material aside for some time, be it 20 minutes or a day, you are ready to activate. This involves reminding yourself of your questions and trigger words and letting intuition guide you to dip into the book, scan sections, speed read sections or traditionally read sections depending on what you're aiming to get from a book.
I don't know if that works out at a page a second average. I guess my photoreading stage works around 2 pages a second but my activation stage may take an hour. I'm not an aficionado but it still makes reading more entertaining and considerably faster for me. Honestly that's probably one of the most in depth detailing of the photoreading system you'll find without buying the book. As for your money, keep it, knowledge should be free.
+Theodore Woodford
You see that is why we feel paul scheele is a quack because in his book he claims speed vs retention and does talk about the 5 steps but never mentions how useful they actually are. Take for example browsing the internet. Am i going to go back and review all my web browsers!?? Of course not! The only people i know that can really speed read are:
1 darren brown the hypnotist from the UK
2. Howard berg worlds fastest reader
3 richard welch (performed tests at arizona state university).
I am calling the department of psychology today in arizona to see if this is legit because ive spent a whole year searching for the holy grail and this is not what Mr paul scheele promised
Paul. in the photo reading community there is no proof the method works. The only proof is testimonials by people who say it works. at least on youtube. Would you be kind enough to finally do this concept some justice and make a scientific test. Proof of concept? All we (the people of youtube) really care to see is a simple test showing how fast you can go and how much of it you can remember. All you need is a stop watch and a friend to ask you whats inside the book. Not that difficult.
I got a great idea. How about you try it. Instead of waiting for some else to do it, why don't you be the one to show proof of it.
It doesn't work that way, it speeds up the process, so you can read in hours versus days - why not learn it for yourself - you will have to let go your cynicism though. Henry Ford said whether you believe you can or cannot - you are right!
Nice video. Load everything into long term memory using mental photography. Remember 100% of what you learn from your effort. Learn more about it.. Just google search [[ Linda brain power system ]]
+Alex..Its amazing technique. Reading one time and retain all the info for life is really unbelievable.
I make pdf-tachistoscopes(pdfs converted to videos at 60 frames/pages per second). JPtCeNwCU1FCmVW5Qx1zpsk=
Some people read faster because they read faster. Gimmicks don't work. The slower and more insecure learners will turn to gimmicks. There is no substitute for hard work. Using gimmicks will only leave you with gaps in knowledge and skills that will only harm you.
Tahnee Thompson that's exactly what I said.
bwt 95% of people dont think they can draw either. its cos they dont know how to switch off the critical left brain that says they can't. read betty edwards she actually says similar things to teach people to draw. which everyone can.

You would be quicker reading the book ....

Basic understanding of neuroscience and working memory will tell you this is pseudoscience. I am a neuroscience undergraduate student with a minor in psychology. I'm not an expert yet but I can say that this has no basis in what we know using empirical tests.
The "photo reading" part is actually the most useless part of this entire concept. Skimming the text is more useful and where you got all your results. I am sorry you and the many others who bought the courses wasted so much time (or money) believing in this concept.
I am seeing from the other comments that people (from experience) are attributing their acquired knowledge to "photo reading" without them taking into account that they skimmed the book and performed practices that have been proven to be beneficial such as meditation, positive mindset, pre-reading texts, and affirmation exercises. So, people skim a book and perform practices that are actually healthy for your brain and attribute their success to photo reading... If you know anything about pseudoscience then you'd know that this is how many pseudosciences start.
Please put it to the test and see what happens.
Have you slowed this video down a little bit?
Arabic language Pleas
this is total khara
Actually no. Believe it or not ive spent $500. 1 year. 4 hours on youtube last night till 2 am and currently there is no one willing to test the proof of concept so your wrong there are only testimonials. Who cares about testimonials we want to see if this really works
Skip to 3:09 to skip the crap
his accent made it hard to understand him
+Sharleen DeVore there are subtitles available on youtube videos and it looks like they are inbuilt by the uploader in this video
What a load of crap!!! please do that photo reading and go have the MBA exams...you will pass...yeah right
can't believe I'm watching this BS
Then don't watch it and stay ignorant. If you'd really investigated it you'ld know that it works.
What a waste of 10 minutes
I dont believe this works
Why Tangerine? Apple could works too ! this stupid and you need superpowers to understand a book using this way :(
