Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Question(s) to Pete Bissonete & other expert PRs

Just curious.

Have you abandoned the old fashioned reading?
What I mean is..

Let's use this message board as an example. Do you use the wholemindsystem to read message board posts? Or do you revert back to the old fashion reading when it comes to simple things like this.

Pete Bissonete, from your earlier reply from one of my other post I take it that visualization plays a big role in the wholemindsystem. Do you have any tips for me to make my visualization of the material photoread more evident and solid?

Should the sounding out (auditory memory) of words to be avoided completely? I find visualization more evident as my mind picks up words here and there (trigger words perhaps?) as i activate and/or rapid read. If I make it a conscious effort to completely shut out the auditory part of the reading then I think there is that feeling that nothing has come out of the process and visualization is also shut out. The auditory part just comes natural i think as I activate/rapid read, but I think a conscious effort can shut out the auditory part of reading if it would somehow enhance the PR process. What is your input on this?

I'm not an expert but no you don't PR everything and you don't throw out subvocalization.

What you don't do is slow read everything while sounding out every word on everything you read.

Material becomes more evident and solid according to how urgent it is that you know it. If there's no urgency (like job training or a test) then your purpose will come next. This was my big mistake when learning this. I was going thru all the books I had trying to see if PR worked. Half of them I had no interest in so why would anything "jump" out at me or give me feelings about them. Luckily enough of them did to give me some indication something was going on.

You may be trying to read something that you really don't care about.
