hello Teim ,
summerfield is absolutely right,you are on the right track,
as paul sheele points out in the begining of the course itself,don't try hard or struggle to learn PRing,take it easy,and be calm,even if your concious thoughts,keep telling you that pring doesn't work,or you're not doing it right,
Try the following:
1.SMILE FIRST,because smile helps you to reduce tension,
and Affirm the following words (say it as if you were telling it to someone else)"photoreading works for me,i am on the right track,and i'll eventually perfect it"
the above suggestion worked for me,when i was too learning the pring and i was stuck in activation using Super reading and Dipping stage..
2.trying to memorize while PRING actually interferes with comprehension,set your purpose that you want to make all the important information available to the concious mind..you may not have a perfect recall of everything you acivated but you'll have the guist and you'll know where to look for it..
for eg: i activated a history chapter,
even though i knew why the battle took place and the consequences of the same;i hadn't observed the dates,
after activating it using SR and Dip,i mind mapped the details i had comprehended,and went back to the text for the dates stuff..
3.dreaming:its really incredible! that you can find simple thing as dreaming to help you gain the knowledge..
just to test,day before yesterday,i photo read a novel and affirmed that i would like to dream about the book tonight..surprisingly i got the dream,in my dream i was being chased away by hundreds of crabs,from an airport,in some city..and i regretted that i didn't called a taxi for the ride at the airport just to save money...
well guess what!! the person in the novel was also being chased by the crabs and he finally got a ride while he was hanging by a thread !! i was really blown away and i actually read that chpter over three times because of my astonishment...
and i did another test; yesterday i didn't photoread any book,and consequentially i didn't got any lucid dream as i did daybefore yesterday..
here's what you can do:go through the photo reading course all the way from the begining to the end ,untill you feel satisfied,because every time you go through something whether its a music,book,lecture,you'll find something new to motivate you...because Pring did'nt work for me in the beginingg either,but now i am delighted that i too can photoread..
hope it helps,
bye,
karthik
