Forget the PhotoReading book and just listen to the next CD of the course and don't try to learn the system just follow along perhaps even with the acceptance that all of it won't sink in or work the way you want the first time.
Remember what happened with the Star of Wonder exercise? If you can change the rules of how you think PhotoReading should work and just try your hand with it on a couple of other books. Follow the suggestion to spend 20 minutes with activation.
It may help you to know I went through a block of frustration. In the end I just gave up and did it to get it out of the way and just be finished with it. It led to 20/20 hindsight. 1 that I did learn something and two I didn't get anything until I actually did finish it.
When I did the dictionary game. I had the weirdest of experiences where I got three hits and then remember saying to myself this is so weird it can't happen again. So I picked 3 words that weren't in the dictionary. Sure enough it didn't happen again. Three months later when I managed to retrieve the dictionary from the awkward corner where it landed, after I threw over my shoulder I realised exactly what I did. At the time I decided to forget about that part and continue with the rest.
It was only 3 months later I realised that it worked exactly as it should have worked. At the time I didn't know enough about the system to realise... That was perfect evidence that I was getting something from PhotoReading only I didn't understand enough about the system to see it at that time.
That's why you often see post that say Just do it. Notice it, Own it, Play and Stay with it.
So I appreciate your frustration with the PhotoReading book and manual. So instead work with the CDs and finish the basic course. Work with a couple of other books. You're invited to work with the Natural Brilliance book or your own. I suggest you take the opportunity to work with your own. So the next two books are your own.
