This reading-based routine emerged from my desire to master cold reading without any prior knowledge. I aimed to develop a reliable method for delivering readings confidently, minimizing the risk of error. By incorporating bold and specific statements, I ensured that even if I veered off track, I could always rely on a strong conclusion to validate my performance. This approach is grounded in two key principles.

One principle is what I refer to as the ‘pigeonhole’ principle, while the other is a simplified version of my ‘confirmation’ principle.
