I’m a huge training videos junkie.
I love watching training videos of all kinds.
Being part of Empower Network definitely keeps me busy with a tonne of amazing training content related to Blogging and Internet Marketing.
One question I often get asked by people is “Paul, how do you find the time to watch all this training!?”
Well, I have one little secret weapon.
It’s called Enounce MySpeed.
Enounce MySpeed is a small utility that you install on your computer which allows you to speed up the speed at which you watch your videos.
You see, the human brain can usually process audio information at about 1.5x – 3.0x the speed that it can speak it.
This means that when you’re listening to an average person speaking, your brain is basically only working at about 25-30% of the speed that it can for processing what it is hearing.
Which also means that you can SPEED UP the speed at which someone is speaking by 10% – 100% or maybe even more and still comprehend EVERYTHING perfectly, as long as you’re paying attention.
Enounce MySpeed is a utility that I use which allows you to do just that.
It allows me to watch a 60 minute video in about 30-35mins.
If you look at the screenshot above you can see that the utility has already saved me over 384 HOUR of time!
That’s almost 10 weeks of working at a 40 hour/week full time job!
Isn’t that crazy?
What’s really cool about Enounce MySpeed is that it allows you to watch streaming videos, such as the ones from YouTube or other streaming services at faster speeds without the voices on those videos sounding like the chipmunks!
When you first start using the utility you may only be able to speed up your videos by about 10% – 20% before you start to miss things, but over time you can condition your mind to hear at 1.5x – 2.0x or even higher speeds.
I’ve been using this software for a while and 2.0x speeds are super easy for me.
When I started, I would usually listen at 1.5x regular speed.
Try it out yourself.

I highly recommend it!
