Hi everyone, I just have one question that needs to be cleared up. For direct learning, you just get a bunch of books on a particular subject of interest and then you start photoreading them one by one? and then let it activate spontaneously? So you don't even have to activate it manually with your conscious mind? Any thoughts on this would be nice, thanks.

Carefully select the books that you want to do a Direct Learning on. You want to know that they will be useful.

Consider your goal and verify in a short 2 minute max preview per book that these books do teach/explain the skill set you wish to acquire.

Purpose, affirm, etc, then photoread the lot, closing affirm and visualisation to complete. Then watch for evidence that the skill is more present, chances are you won't notice the skill but someone else might point it out for you. Direct learning is the nonconscious acquistion of the skill so the outwardly actions would also be non conscious almost like the habit of tying a shoe you don't think about it you just do it.

So one day after doing the direct learning you might just realise that you are just doing it.

By the way a very good visualisation script is provided in the Natural Brilliance book in the chapter on Direct Learning (C.10)

That chapter and the outline in the PhotoReading book (p.137) show that the whole process is pretty straight forward.

When it comes to activation of the books... only if you're inclinded to do so. Sometimes it's helpful other times it's not.
