I envy...er, admire you, max! You definately have gift of knowing how to pleasure read. From the way you talk, you seem to enjoying to the point that it's tempting.
I read on several sources that a parent's influence on a child determine's their reading habits. Did your parents do it with you? or did they tell you good things about reading? This is just a hypothesis, I know, but it's convincingly true.
I know that pleasure reading definately can boost up PhotoReading results, because of that already-programmed urge to pick up a book!
Hey, Alex, after 20-30 minute sessions, do you need a break because your session was intensive and exhaustive, or merely for incubation? I ask this in the case of you "Getting into the flow," which is a state I need to use as well. Speaking of flow, I read "Finding Flow" from Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. Contrary to it's point, I automically tend to shy away from challenges, but most likely because I fear failure. I get a little...what you say, "brain-locked" while using PRWMS and slow down. However, I'm getting more proficient at the TT technique. Hehe, it's a mysterious phenomenon!
