Hi everyone,
I recently ordered the PR book and I have a few questions. Now the book costs about $15, and the full program around $250. So what advantage over the book does the full program have?
Also while researching the pr program I have read about how there are some other steps you go through other than the actual photo reading. But on the infomercial the guy who demonstrates it only reads through the stuff once. Is this something you can do when you get more advanced or is it false advertising.
Thanks for the info.
Jon

Im still an amateur at this but what they do on TV is NOT false advertising. When they demonstrate on TV the person isn't going for maximum comprehension, rather, they are just activating the material pretty much as it is asked.

With patience, it will get easier, as it is getting easier and easier for me everytime i photoread/activate.

I am the guy on the TV show.

I went through the chapter in the book twice. The first time I PhotoRead it; the second time I super read through it (no time for dipping!). Because of the editing of the program you have to look closely to see me go back to the beginning of the chapter.

When I PhotoRead off the computer it was one time through. The question answer session was the activation. Pictures came to me as he asked the question. I sorted out the pictures, and answered.

Strive to do as well as I. But be prepared to go through lengthy activation sessions feeling you are getting nothing from the activation. Eventually the book will gel and you and quit activating. Beginners can typically activate in 1/3 the time it would take to read the text regularly.

I can just picture you saying that. (not that I can picture you as you really appear, but there is some image in my mind that works quite well )

pete,

what you did on tv, is that what people are calling 'processing'?
or is it something different?

how could you super read the material that fast?

i only remember you going through the material really quickly (and boy, was i impressed!)

i thought that maybe you just photoread it once or twice and could answer those questions immediately.

i thought, and is there, a way for a person to photoread the material and at the same time gain conscious knowledge of the material?

thanks
tom

I did go through the chapter in the book twice. When you catch the show next time, record it so you can see the fraction of a section when I flipped back to the beginning of the chapter.

Was my super reading fast? Probably. Not any more fast than (oops, before the grammar police arrest me, I mean "faster than") what I normally go. It goes to the point that people tend to super read too slowly.

I had little conscious knowledge of the material until Matt asked the questions.

The chapter hadn't even gelled for me (if you don't know what I'm talking about read the "works on all material" article in the PhotoReading section of the website).

The questions actually served as a mind probe.

Can you do it? Probably. But I wouldn't focus on it now. Spend your time mastering the system by fully activating material. Keep challenging yourself, and you'll be there eventually.

In the mean time, remember the promise of the show: you can get through information three times faster with PhotoReading. Master than, then go for four times, five times, ... 18 times.
