I got the course about a week ago and I have read the book and listened to the tapes. I can easily get into the photo state and see the blip page. I practically grew up on magic eyes so I have no problem with it. I haven't activated any books yet and I have 0% comprehension of what I have read, but I KNOW it's in there somewhere. I realize that I have been reading slow and the WRONG way for about 17 years so I don't expect it to come naturally right off the bat. If you guys can give me some encouragement it would help . . . . thanks

C.A.B.L,
Pick an non-fiction book that you like to activate and try the five day test as describe in the PRWMS book. Of course, you can get it.

Well, the secret of photoreading is "You already know how to do it."

I would say it's perhaps not a skill that you must reach far for. Instead, when you begin reading the right way, your brain will be conditioned for it, basically.

Naturally you won't have any conscious comprehension until you activate. It's the next step. So dig out those mind probing questions and do some superreading and dipping for answers.

Remember also it comes in layers, so as suggested apply the 5 day test.

Take a book you have already photoread & activate it. Start with your purpose. What is it that you want from this book? What will be different after activating this book? What information will find in this book that you did not know before?

Quickly go through the book and survey it. Find 20 to 25 trigger words.Write down questions for these trigger words.

Superread through the book to find the answers to the questions you have formulated from your trigger words. Your goal here is not to read the book but to scan the pages of the book until you find your trigger word and the answer to your question. Kinda like looking for a person name in a phone book. You don't stop and read every name in the phone book you scan & scan until you find the name of the person you are looking for then you dip. By dip i mean you stop scanning and read the information once you have found it by superreading and dipping.
