hey guys i have come to the conclusion that photoreading is a great tool for reading non-fiction books quickly with great comprehension.

that it is supposed to work with dictionaries ist just as amazing!

HOWEVER, it doesn't help you with emails, newspaper articles, mail, forum post like this one, etc...


i thinks for emails and letters as well as short notes and novels may speed reading be the better choice. what do you guys think? how are you all dealing with that?

my last question: can you photoread ebooks?

For short memos and small newspaper articles (under 2 pages) ,
I find normal reading is best.

However, if I have a series of short 8 -10 page
publications to read for work, and pressed for
time due to pending business meetings
or other appointments,--
I quickly PR the short 10 page publication(s) and let the
material incubate, while I go to my business
meetings. Later, I activate the materials,
and read the material with great ease.

For short novels, for pleasure, I prefer regular reading
to savor the material. If it is short reading,
that is required by the boss and/or not my particular
choice for reading, I will PR
it so I can read it as quickly as possible, upon
the activation steps. I end up developing interest in
the material by PR ing it, most of the time.

You can photoread ebooks, exactly as you
do regular books. Find the imaginary
X, if you are reading from the computer
screen. It is nice to print out ebooks, also,
if possible.

Lolu asks"when i print an ebook and collect it in a folder, i won't be able to see the blip page! that doesn't matter?"

My reply: As long as you are in ALS, can see the imaginary X from the
4 corners simultaneously, concentrating on the white spaces between the letters and graphs, then you are doing well. The same goes for reading
ebooks off the computer screen.

Hope this helps.

Funny I use PhotoReading for the forum, news papers and articles. It's explained on disk 8 of the classic course.

Check out chapter 8 of the PhotoReading book (3rd edition English version)

very interesting. how are you doing it in the forum? do you pr it all and then rapid read it?

but how would you do that? considering the getting in state etc you would actually waste time.... not even speaking of the time you have to wait until something can be activated...

Getting into state is a mere 30 seconds or with experience just the intention a part of my purpose. photofocus and page down. See the questions and answer them.
