Yes, I do feel that getting enjoyment from something is a benefit.

But now I also understand that you are under pressure. Please do follow Dana's advice and get PR to work for you. Good luck.

Qwerty,

I can understand that your mum wants to see some evidence of it working. Afterall it's not much good if it possibly waste this much money on something that is going to end up sitting in a closet.

If you want to prove to your mum it works I hope you use a shorter book as the course, Dana and others have advised, for your first book. I can't see how a computer programming book would convince your mum. I'm sure she expects to see some results that she can relate to your school work . It would prove something if you were able to say to your mum that you could comprehend the relevant information out of one of your text books in just 2 hours. Afterall with practice it gets even better than that.

Anyway keep having fun with it.

Alex

Hey, don't let the moralists get you down. I understand PhotoReading is a big investment in money, and time. (Although it saves time in the long run).

My advice is to experiement with lots and lots of little books. When you get good, you can start AutoFlipping (a cross between Spontanious and Manual activation, where you find the information "at random"). I did this with a friend who was asking about the novel Fight Club (my first attempt to PR ficton). I didn't know the answer, (because I hadn't done any step execpt for PhotoReading), but I opened the book "at random" and put my finger on the correct paragraph discribing the scene he was after. If you can do that, and do it repeatedly, you'll convince your mom you made a good investment.
