First of all, thanks to everyone who saw and gave me any advice in this photoreading forum or personally. All of you are really kind to me as my english is not well but all of you still saw and answered my question.
Days before, i got my SPM result. SPM is a test that government gave to student in order to measure their standard. Honestly, i would post result here so that i can seek for advice and improvement from you all.
I am happy with this result. I learned photoreading wholemind system when i was preparing for SPM. It's about three month from SPM. I finished my photoreading wholemind system course in september and i sit for SPM in november. That means i can only apply photoreading in my course for 1 more months.
A1 is the best, A2,B3,B4,C5,C6,D7,E8 and G9 is the worst.
Left one is SPM result, right one is the test result before SPM(that means photoreading doesnt apply on that test)
Language:
Melayu - B4/C6
Chinese- A2/C5
English- A1/B4
Science:
Physics- B3/D7
Biology -B4/C6
Chemistry - C5/E8
EST -B3/B3 (didnt apply PR on EST yet)
Calculation:
Mathematics-A1/C5
Additional Mathematics-B3/D7
Others:
History- A1/C6
Moral -A2/9G
As all of you can see, i have achieved a great improvement in all subjects that i learnt. Even the moral, i got 9G in the school's test, but in SPM i got A2. . With this result, i also proved that Photoreading Wholemind System is effective in my study as i only apply it on the last two month before the SPM and it made me get A2 of the subject i failed in the test! I would like to say Thank You for everyone who helped me in learning photoreading wholemind system. I would continue to seek for the knowledge with photoreading wholemind system and i hope i can continue to seek for advice from you all, my honored photoreaders in this forum.
=============================================
Well, however, i still wonder that why i didn't get A1 for all subjects......:D
Nowadays, i realized that i have not any improvement on my study and photoreading wholemind system. I would like to share my skill of photoreading wholemind system with all of you and hope all of you can give me advice and some tips of improvement. Thanks to you all.
My Photoreading Wholemind System
>>>>>First Step: Prepare<<<<<
Purpose>Affirmation>Time Setting>Ideal State of Mind
I always set my purpose before i start the whole system. Generally, the purpose i would apply to all study material is ' I need the information of this <book> so that i can <main purpose>, and i also can improve my photoreading wholemind system during the study, and improve my english during the study.
*****(Yes, i set the improvement of the PR and english as the side purpose. Now the question comes to my mind, is this purpose really helpful and effective in my PR? I believe that i set a right main purpose for every books i PRed, but i am not sure that these side purpose can really help or not.)
After i set my purpose, i gently close my eyes, and said to myself, "as i study the <book>, i am relaxed and focused." "after i studied the <book>, i am full with confidence." "When i need the information of the <book>, these information would simply flow in my minds, and i am easy to get this information to accomplish my goal." "i can accomplish everything since i set my mind on."
After the affirmation, i would ask myself several questions,
Is the information in this <book> important to me? Why?
Is the information in this <book> worthy to me? Why?
What is the information i want from this <book>, detail or just overview?
How many times i would use to finish this book with the whole Photoreading wholemind system?
Then i would go into the ideal state of mind by imagine a tangerine and put behind my head. I imagine my field of vision is widely opened then i start the next step of PR system, which is Preview.
*****I have some question about the tangerine. Can i imagine an abstract thing such as a holy cross which has not smell and sound but have a warmful feeling when i imagine it and put it behind my head?
>>>>>Second Step: Preview<<<<<
Check the headline and other things on the book's cover, copyrighted date, author's preface, author's biography and etc>Read the first page and last page>Take trigger words every 20 pages.
*****I have some questions about this trigger words. When i take the trigger word from the book, i take the words that i feel really interesting for me. However, i do not know is those words fits to my purpose or not. Many times, i randomly pick out the words which i did not recognize at all!
Then i would review the trigger words i took from the book and ask several question to myself.
Do i want to further? Why?
Do i want to change my reading point? Why?
How many times i would use to finish my study?
>>>>>Third Step: Photoreading<<<<<
In this step, i would start to recreate or reset my purpose of studying this <book> based on what i got in the preview step.Then i would start to enter the resource level by simply relax my body on a bed.
I took three deep breath, and the fourth breath, i imagine a flow of relaxation and healing comes down from my head to my toes and all tension is out from my body. Then i said "three". After that, i took a deep breath again, and imagine i am in a dark field and only me, tangerine, and the <book> Then i imagine all my concentration is on that <book>'s. Then, i said "two". When i said "one", i imagine i am running on a wide grass field, and i jump up, and i am in the light, then i said to myself(mental sounding), " as i photoread, my concentration is absolute." "all that i photoread makes a lasting impression in my mind, and is available to me." "i desire the information of this <book>, to accomplish my <goal>."
Then i open my eyes, and start to photoread. After i photoread, i did some affirmation and close my photoread step.
*****Here is the question. Do i need to start the mind probing instantly after i just finished my photoreading step? I always start mind probing after waiting for 20mins~1 hour. This means i start my mind probing before the activation step.
>>>>>Fourth Step: Activation<<<<<
Before i start my activation, i would review my goal and purpose. Then i start mind probing. After that, i did superread and dip.
The step seems easy but many problems start in this step.
*****Firstly, is it effective that i start my activation instantly after i just finished my mind probing?
*****Secondly, i realized that except the book that i need to do exercise and test, i gave all the book 5 times of activation and 1 time mind-map and the length of time is 20mins. I mean even the book that wrote by PhD, i also finish it in two hour activation. I thought i knew it well but it is weird right?
*****Thirdly, i realized that i can get 70% comprehension in every study but honestly, 70%...is really few. What i mean is, is that got anyway to allow me get 78~80% of comprehension in just 1 hour and 40mins of activation? or do i have to expand my time of activation so that i can get 78~80% of comprehension? I tried 30mins rapidread but i can only get more 1%~1.5% of comprehension from the book......(optimistical view)
So this is my photoreading wholemind system and my question. I would like to seek for any advice and view from all of you. Thanks to you all.
Best regards,
