          ^Additional Exercises - Reading, Studying, and Learning\

Practice applying the systems you have just learned to any reading material
of your choice.  The first few times you apply the systems to technical
reading material, they will slow down your reading speed.  However, you
>won't\ have to spend time going over the material again and again, because
you will remember it after that first reading.

As you become more proficient at applying the systems, you'll find that you
are reading closer and closer to your normal reading speed.  What's more ,
you will only be reading the material $once\.  The Memory Master systems are
applicable to %any\ type of reading matter, and the more technical the
material, the more useful the systems become.

As you read, you can remember facts, figures and prices in a business
report; names, dates, events and places in a historical novel; names and
applications of new drugs in a medical journal; names and quotations in a
political report; specifications and dimensions in an engineering magazine;
- absolutely |anything\ !#

If you want to, you can even memorise the page number on which a particular
quote or fact appears. Simply associate a Key Word from the fact or quote to
the Peg Word that represents that page number. If you don't have a Peg Word
for that particular page number, make one up that fits the page number
phonetically - the system will work just as well.

Taking the idea a bit further, you can associate section headings, diagram
numbers and chapter titles to page numbers. You can, to all intents and
purposes, effectively memorise an entire book this way !
