Avoid actual eye contact for the entire conversation by looking near or around the eyes. This part is also a good tip for anyone who struggles with eye contact. The next part comes when you need to make a strong point or get the listener to really believe you. All you do is switch to actual, direct eye contact. It catches people off guard but is subtle enough that it seems like nothing has changed.
Speed reading is basically just practice. Look up youtube tutorials and keep at it until it feels natural. Just don’t use it to actually read or you will miss things. My dad made me learn how to do it when i was a kid. While it’s uncomfortable for me, it does help me a lot when I’m in a rush.
What’s the eye contact one? And how do you teach speed reading?
