Dana, Thanks you for sharing the that story from a student.
I am still learning to PhotoRead and I as don't have any stories, yet. But I do find the hardest thing about Photoreading is just the commitment. But like all things in life, ( a diet, excersize, learning a new langauge or anything else ) it takes commitment, Time, and effort. I have made a goal to stick with this for the next 6 to 12 month of practicing because I am dertermined to make this work...which is why it's 2:40 in the morning now. I for got to practice and was in bed when I relized, I commitmentand goals..so I got up and went through my PhotoReading practices now..and thought I'd check this message board to see if I could learn anything else from other people sharing their stories.
