Hi,

How do I PR just 1 page at a time? Like when I copy chapters of books and all I have are separate pages. Or web pages? I know that I don't have to see the blip page because in this situation, I don't have two pages at the same time. Do I just focus on the center of the page and focus on the white spaces that the words create?

Yes just use the imaginary X technique Page 84 of the book explains (Einstein with the lighbulb)

Oh, ok thanks. I guess I should have known that. Sorry. So, everything is the same except for that. Does it matter if I see the words blurry? Or is that encourage?

One more thing; so, let me get this straight, when I PR I only look at the center of the two pages and the blip page? I thought that I had to start from the top and work my way down with the blip page and imagine the corners and stuff. If that is wrong than the only thing moving would be the pages right???Help

Text blurry is fine. Just avoid forcing it by going cross-eyed. You want to be relaxed looking through the monitor / page gaze. That is if the monitor or page were suddenly taken away your focus would be sharp on an object about 4 to 6 inches behind it (not important where exactly) Just grab a book, take it outside, focus on a object some distance away from you and then slowly pull the book up into your visual field about 12 inches in front of your eyes without changeing your focus (it's still on the other object). Notice the blip page.

Thats what you see when you gaze in the middle of the book. The point an imaginary X would cross if you drew a line from the outer corners of the book. At the same time you that you are looking at the center crease you notice the corners of the book as well. Unlike with regular reading where your mind only sees the words in an area of perhaps 1 inch in diameter. With Photoreading your mind sees both pages of the open book (or the whole monitor screen in one instant.

The only thing you need to move are your hands to turn the pages - your gaze remains in the center of the book. Remember to blink and breathe

PERFECT! Thanks a lot AlexK for helping me AGAIN. That made a lot of sense. I have a real good idea now and I am also reading the PRWMS book too. I thought I didn't need it since I listen to Paul Scheele's tapes, I guess I do need it.


Thanks AlexK

Speaking of p-reading stuff online...:-)

I'd be interested to know of books online (preferably free), but any source is cool. Anybody found any good online libraries?

Thanks!

www.questia.com has over 400,000 books on about everything. You can even view some books for free, but full access is like $20 a month, Enjoy.

Also I want to thank Alex for clearing up some issues I was having (Just started PR a week ago, doing much better now)
with PR. Peace everyone
