10 uses of Speed writing

  1. Recording telephone messages
    ➢ when callers speak quickly, you need to write quickly to note everything down.
  2. Writing shopping lists
    ➢ this can be a chore, but with speedwriting it can be done very quickly.
  3. Taking dictation
    ➢ be a more effective PA; take faster notes when your manager dictates.
  4. Making notes in a lecture
    ➢ make sure you don't miss anything the lecturer says.
  5. Taking minutes or notes of meetings
    ➢ don’t miss anything important because your writing is not fast enough.
  6. Ensuring you note down everything your manager wants you to do
    ➢ many busy managers “rattle off” lists of tasks – make sure you write them all down by using speedwriting.
  7. Getting your “to do” lists finished more quickly
    ➢ good time management – your “to do” list is finished in half the time.
  8. Journalists interviewing and reporting
    ➢ don’t miss that important point in an interview because your writing isn’t fast enough.
  9. Quicker diary entries
    ➢ your diary will be neater if you have less information or you could in fact fit in more information.
  10. Writing plans
    ➢ keep your creativity flowing by writing much faster
