6 activation layers is a lot and I often find I lack the motivation to follow through with 6+ passes through a book/chapter.

Any suggestions?

How much time are your activation layers and how long does it take you to read the same book traditionally?

If it's a short chapter, 10 minutes.

If it's a long chapter or a book, 20 minutes.

I wouldn't normally read a whole book/chapter traditionally and I never have.

Change the time to 6 minutes for short chapter and 17 minutes for the book. You know what that means? Set a timer.

The only reason one would not to be motivated is if they habitually let the task take longer. If it's only 6 minutes or 17 minutes. How hard is that really?

Hi,
Can I jump in here? I know that it has been about a month since this thread started, however I think this is common for Photoreaders. What I found that worked really well was for me to be very specific as to what I wanted to get from the material I was Photoreading. For example, if I had set a goal to find a new job, then I would Photoread books in several areas over a course of a month lets say. I specifically asked for ideas on how to change my cover letter and resume to stand out and get me the interview, therefore the books that I Photoread were resume books. There was plenty of motivation. I also wrote down my ideas as they were coming in. In the beginning, I wouldn't stop to write them down and by the time I was done Photoreading, I had forgot them! LOL! Now I always stop if I am getting the ideas, quick write a couple of words and then go back into state, and continue to Photoread until I am done with the book.

I hoped this helped!
