Hi BlkWolf,
I would say that belief is actually more important than the accelerated learning state because if you do believe that the system does not work then nothing you can do will help except to change you belief.
Having said that, the ALS is important as well because if you are not in the right frame of mind (ALS) your results with the system will not be optimal but you will still get some results.
If you are having trouble getting into state I would suggest doing a search on this site for help and if you have the home study course then go back through the exercises in this area.
Hope this helped,
Greg
