Don't worry. It's a small investment (the book) and with the help of the forum, we should be able to iron out any of those different interpretations you might have.
On that note, if you buy the book, I recommend getting a paraliminal tape as well. It's my personal observation that many times a person having trouble with the accelerated learning state have problems because they don't have the course, where Paul describes it in great detail and leads you into it. That's why I suggest the paraliminal, because some of them get you into a similar if not same state. I'd recommend the Memory Supercharger one if possible. (Anybody else have other suggestions?)
Good luck =) The book is highly recommended.
