Ok, I have some questions about when you set up a purpose. I mean I'm not sure how to say this, but is it something you need to like think about the whole time you're photoreading and before and after, just keep it on your mind? Or repeat it in your head? Or do you just establish a purpose, read it back to yourself and go on? Thank you.

Consider your purpose prior to each stage of reading. You don't have you constantly think about it. Bit like putting your wallet in your pocket everyday. At some point you consider spending the money that is in it so you take it along and from time to time you might chect that you still have it handy.

That is the approach for purpose. Know what you want, like what you know what you want to buy when you go to the shops.

When you're not sure about how to set up a purpose...think about exactly how you want that information to postively impact you, by acquiring the knowledge in that book, magazine, etc.

Start thinking about exactly how high a level of comprehension will satisfy your purpose and curiosity for reading.

Taking a few moments to reflect on your purpose on about a dozen books in a row will create an anchor, so you automatically approach any printed information with a positive outcome in mind.
