i agree with her. it is mostly good for after you learned a lot of information you want to remember. make sure you follow all of the instructions while the tape is playing. the first 15 times i listened to the tape, i followed MOST of the instructions, but last night i heard the part where he said "this good experience is repeating over and over" so i kept on thinking of the success i would have from getting better memory over and over, and i felt much more empowered. the tape is also for a long-term use. the more you listen to it, the better your memory will get. listen to it every day or once or twice a week, whenever you have the chance. i listen to it at night most of the time. after a few weeks, you'll notice a greater effect, and after some months, your memory will be much better than other people around you. remember, the best effects are long term, they just start small.
