PS. Why do I have a feeling that I am not sincerely helped but rather examined like a criminal like "what did you do wrong?"
I didn't read Alex's questions like that at all.
Here's my take: You came in asking why it wasn't working for you. Alex asked specifically what you were doing and how you were attempting to use the system.
No one can tell you what you were doing wrong until they first know what you were doing. Once that is understood they can analyze your process and offer suggestions for improvement.
You might try searching the forum using "activation" as a search term. Read through the advice in the threads that come up in the search results. Then analyze how the processes you are using compares to what has been outlined in the responses given to others.
When I had problems of this nature (I only have the PR book too) they were due to my own misapplication/misinterpretation of some of the steps after the Photoreading step.
Based on some of your questions to Alex you might want to try reading the PR book again or even Photoreading and activating it. The 5-day plan is on pages 76-77. Mindmaps are discussed on pages 65-67 in the Activation chapter. I found Chapter 12 - Questions and Answers to be helpful as well as the Quick Reference Guide that starts on page 146.
Alex is a great teacher. You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you were to assume her offer of help was anything but sincere.
