I PRed about 25 books two or three weeks ago. Can I activate them today without having to PRead them again?

Also once you photoread a book (without any activation yet), how long will it remain in your memory?

to add a question

after activation, do you find it stays in your memory well for a long time?

You're going to activate 25 books all at once?
Well why not. Give it a try.

I would pick one. Invest 5 minutes and PR it again and then start the activation on it.

You may be able to activate the books. However, I think you'll master the systems sooner if you take small steps and build with success. Do the best you can to get that success. I believe that's the main idea behind the 5 day plan.

Good luck,

Shin, there are many theories as to how memory works. Please, try it and post your results. I always assumed that a PhotoRead book would stay in the preconscious indefinately. (After all, books aren't really "activated" in Direct Learning).

One thing I have noticed with activation is the more I've photoread a book, the faster it goes. One book I PhotoRead about 6 times before activating, and I blasted through it in two hours of activation. One book I only PhotoRead twice, and I'm still activating it.

Because preconscious memory is rather difficult to access, (i.e. there is less "re" in the whole "remember") it's hard to say is there is such a thing as "long-term preconscious memory). I think we should rule it in until we disprove it, simply because the belief it exists it more empowering than a belief that it does not.
