This message may or not have been addressed before. Nevertheless, I find that is wholly relevant to the Photoreading Mind System (if not what I perceive as the very first step) and therefore it must be asked, even though I'm sure it's been asked on this message board over, and over, and over again.

First off, I've just finished the taped course for the whole mind system. As a student at a university whose time during winter break is drying up, I'm having a hard time seeing just how I'm going to be able to employ the steps of the system over the school year. I'm taking 20 credit hours, which is almost as much as two students combined, in mechanical engineering, whose textbooks will not lend themselves to an easy Photoreading experience for beginners.

I understand that all this e-mail seems to do is justify my reasons why I shouldn't employ the system. This couldn't be further from the truth. My question is--how does one who perceives himself to have no time "make" time to practice the system with other types of reading material that will be better suited for a beginner's level of Photoreading? I don't think I'm ready to start out with literature like Catch 22, or complicated novels with a winding story. I'm mostly interested in starting out with biographies and self-help books.

In addition, page 59 of the workbook gives some information which I don't know how to work around. It states "Do not kid yourself into thinking that you are going to create time to practice. Most people will not. Just use it!", and yet, a few lines down, it states "Preview and PhotoRead from one to ten books each day". How can I "make" this time to do it?
