Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Quick Question

Ok, im just starting the course, had a quick question though. As well as going threw the recommended steps would it help or hurt to PR about 25 technical books daily (4 days a week) without activating directly? They are sitting on my bookshelp and are all on my "must read" list, but I wont get to them normally for about 4 more months.

My job itself will likely activate them, and when I finish the course ill start activating them properly.

Would this be over doing it? I have the time, they are all on the same subject (roughly), and by the time I get to actually activating the last one ill have PR'ed it about 30 times.

Bottom line would it be worth the 1-2 hours a day? (if I gelled all of these books in 3 months id be.. set)

I suggest you first do the whole photoreading course right the way through. Once you get to tape 7 you'll understand the process. You'll be able to decide if you would rather manually activate a book during 1 - 2 hours, even partially. Since once you start activating them, some books might be fully gelled in 1 to 2 hours.

For developing spontaneous activation 3 to 10 books a day is what most people find comfortable and activation one of them per week. If you can handle just photoreading books 25 a day have fun with it

If you Photoread 10 books a day for per week and activate 1 or 2 per week you could have them activated in 3 months. It will probably be easier to decide your best course of action once you've done the course.

For some time now I've been hearing the term "gelling." I just completed the seventh tape and I never heard of that term before. Can someone explain this to me? Thanks.

Joel.

it means that the book is coming together for you - that you feel you got all the points that you wanted out of the book and that you do not need much more. It feels like you understand enough of the book and do not need any further activation passes.

We use the term gelling to describe the feeling/understanding, that the activation process is building to make sense for us.

Because activation is done in layers at first it our understand/comprehension doesn't seem solid or sound. With each activation layer it becomes more solid or harmonious to our conscious mind. At first our comprehension is like it's in liquid form... you feel like you have nothing to hold. As it 'gel' it becomes more possible 'hold' onto the information.

For you it might make more sense if we described it as tuning a musical insturment. At first it sounds flat, with the tuning process (activation layers) the sound is pulled to the correct resonance. Until it sound harmonious to you.

It's just a way of describing the journey from vague comprehension of the text to sound comprehension of the text. Once it's sound right to you it has 'gelled'
