| 0:00.0 | If you don't give your brain the stimulus it needs, it'll seek entertainment elsewhere in the form of distractions, in the form of daydreaming, in the form of mind wandering. |
| 0:08.7 | Look at it like this. If you're driving in your neighborhood and you're going slow, are you really focused on driving? |
| 0:13.9 | No, right? Because if you're going really slow, people now are doing, they're texting, they're checking their makeup, they're singing music, they're drinking their coffee.

Same thing with faster readers. When you're going faster, you have no time to distract yourself to think about other things, to do anything else other than focus on the act of reading and what's in front of what you're reading itself.

| 1:39.0 | I will have found, I will be the Phoenix rising from the ashes. |
| 1:43.2 | So your work is so incredible and obviously relatable to everybody. |
| 1:48.5 | I'm curious in your observation, because you have like, |
| 1:52.1 | are you in a hundred and ninety four country? |
