From your post, if I am reading it correctly, I get the impression you are waiting for spontaneous.
You need to apply the manual activation techniques of superreading and dipping in 20-30 minute sessions. Reread Step 4 Activate from the photoreading book Page 54 explains the 2 types of activation, spontaneous an manual. The more you practice manual activation the greater the chances of spontaneous activation.
All the information enters into your inner mind. You just need to train it to make it available to your conscious mind. 
That's what manual activation does.
Yes they can apply in your life, without you really noticing. However to boost it along you use the direct learning technique of photoreading a few books with the same general topic. Even them it is wise to practice manual activation on some of your reading material so that you inner mind understands what is expected of it when you are photoreading.
