Alex Caban says, "I was e-PRO for 5 years and I rarely
have time to read the posts. I try at 6:00am on
Sunday. Just wondered how do you guys find time to
read and post?"

Couple of thing here Alex: First the word TRY, try
tells the subconscious mind you don't have to do it.
If I asked you to come over this weekend and you say,
"I'll try." will you be there? Of course not. Using
the word try is more than just semantics, it's
mentally defeating. So "Try at 6 to read the post..."
just won't work. As I say in my book, "What if Nike
used the tag line, "Just Try It" would you, no. Taking
the word try out of your vocabulary will immediately
increase your success. For example: I've heard agents
say, "I'm trying to prospect. I'm trying to get more
listings. I tried making more money. I'm trying to
manage time. I'm trying to increase my technology
skills." STOP TRYING, JUST DO IT.

Same with reading e-PROTalk and RealTalk, just do it.
Oh if you haven't read them for 5 years, do go back,
just read forward.

Next, learn to scan read. That's done by forcing
yourself stop subvocalizing. Subvocalization is the
act of saying the words to yourself while you read.
It's how we were all taught and we were taught wrong.
And don't tell me you can understand it if you don't
subvocalize, I know better. And by the way Alex you're
not the only one having this problem, 90 % (pfa) of
the population subvocalizes.

Signing off, it's late and I have a lot of reading I
want to do.
