Hi.

Alex, what is "focused mind", how you feel it and how you develop "focused mind"?

In few of your post I can see you talk about "focused mind".
I can't finr this in the book?

Can you please explain more, how you feel it, how it "looks", how you can develop it?

It is for activation, for knowing answer about some topic in the book (purpose?, trigger word?, probe question?) when you ask yourself?
Is it "that" what I need to develop do get answer without normal reading book, just PR?
Spontaneous activation?


For example here http://www.learningstrategies.com/forum/...age=0#Post55335 you talk about it:
"Purpose. If you haven't got a purpose for reading you'll find yourself using the passive reading approach which boils down to rapid reading at best.
Purpose will help you to from mind probing questions and find answers with a focused mind. Then you'll find you can get the same comprehension from the book in 1/3rd the time it takes to traditionally read the book."

Thanks.

P.S. I did start with PR about 1 year ago, but I can't get one week to learn it completely/better.
I work 12 or more hours per day, and I need rest in any way.
Help me
Regardless of I didn't learn PR completely, I read mush quickly then before.

Sorry how I feel when I am focused has nothing to do with being focused or you being focused. It's a personal thing.

You know you have focus when your mind stays with what you are doing. You forget time and it seems to go quickly. You're getting answers, getting the work done at a steady pace.

As I said, "Purpose will help you to from mind probing questions and find answers with a focused mind.

Find your purpose... then you find a more focused mind.

Spontaneous activation is just something that happens... if you do anything to try and make it happen it's not spontaneous activation it's manual activation.

Alex
