Hello all!
In a page of the website I readed that some girl photoreaded a bunch of books (novels?) and her writing skill improved dramatically overnight.

Do you think that Photoreading a bunch of books about i.e. "writing" can help to improve writing skills, photoreading a bunch of books about "drawing" can help to improve drawing skills and so on? And If yes, I need to activate every single book or I just need to photoread the books and activate them in a single huge pass?

Thanks and sorry for my english.

Learning skills through this approach is called Direct Learning.

For more info on this, either

check out the PhotoReading book (can't remember the pages)

the Natural Brilliance book

the Genius Code Personal Learning Course.

In the PhotoReading book, Paul suggests NOT consciously activating the books.

If you do syntopic reading and you feel that you would like to activate a particular book do so. You most certainly do not need to activate every book for writing reports etc or any book for direct learning.

If you want to go the direct learning path, give it time to appear in your life. It is more often than not subtle in appearing in your life you most probably don't notice that you are applying what you learnt since you haven't activated it. You might be pulled back to a particular book at a later date to activate it... just so you can know what you learnt.

Yes - it can help. PhotoRead around 8-12 books on a particular subject, and then activate the one or two that you feel would be the most cricital, useful, beneficial, and related to the other books and your life.
