OK, the mental block comment stems from my frustration in not understanding the 'purpose'. I'd like to know more on a great many subjects such as Fung Shei, finances, different areas that might assist me in gaining employment, learning several programming languages, interests such as vitamins and minerals that are part of daily life and many other things.
Scheele states in the course manual that purpose can include a general overview or detailed chunks. I've quite a few books that I've avoided reading due to time involved hence my PhotoReading interest. The purpose for these are going to be generalised as far as I can see - wouldn't this be the same if you went to the local bookshop and bought the last best selling novel? What's a purpose here other than generalised enjoyment?
As for the Vitamins and Minerals book, yes, it did fit the criteria. That's what I was told to find. Yes, I do have a curiousity on the subject and would like to comprehend the pro's and con's of the vitamins and minerals my family consumes on a daily basis. I still don't understand why this isn't a valid purpose for reading a book.
I'm trying to be positive when I approach my Photoreading though I do get frustrated when I'm unable to grasp some concepts. ( As much as I ask, my tape player isn't answering back 
)
Cheers
Martin
