You enter the Accelerated Learning State to make the self instructions and affirmation of purpose statements before PhotoReading to help lower some of your defences. If you don't feel relaxed then you have all the more reason to take the time to enter the Accelerated Learning State. The lack of being able to focus on the book is going to make it difficult to take in the information.

So no. You cannot say them later and expect it to work because you haven't done it for the very reason you need to do it. To lower some of the resistance you have to PhotoReading so you can get the information in and then later get the information out.
