Stweet, - I'm interested in knowing how you measure your success or failure with a book? How many activation layers and how long before you decide?
Lot of people pick up a book and think they know their purpose but they cannot articulate it. If you cannot do that you're not building that body mind connection. For some the book is part of the course. And that they think is their purpose. It's not. The purpose or prepare and tapping your purpose is identifying what that book can do for you. What is
Your purpose when you read a non-fiction book?
but need to write about the book entirely, will it help me do so? Is this possible with photoreading?
If your purpose is to summarise the book in a few pages, yes it can be done. Naturally you need to acknowledge this is your purpose. >>>
so that I can<<< summarise the book for others to consider reading.
Good reading actually tries to predict what the author will say next or how what suggestions they offer to solve the problems they discussed? Have you even followed the authors train of thoughts? Do you realise, How to (title) often cover many things involved in a subject you can always have more than one purpose.
Your purpose of summarising a book is one of many possible, So that I can help my son, daughter, mother, father. So that I can start a new career, so that the interviewers can tell I know enough to be considered for a job.
If you think a purpose is redundant then for you reading the book is even more redundant. Because you told you greater mind that you think it's redundant. You're succeeding in making a mess of reading.
We all know 'purpose' drives the process of photoreading, but now this has been so reduntant, it has really started to lose its meaning.
When I read that. I couldn't help groaning. That sentence is a wonderful example of self programming. Now consider is that a statement you want your non-conscious mind to act on? Because act on it will.
We always, always have a purpose for everything we do. Most of it is habit driven. And acknowledging our purpose is our greatest taboo. No I'm not joking.
As kids when our elders asked us why we did that? Didn't we think things through? How did we come up with such a dumb idea?
What do we say? I don't know... Auto response when asked what is your purpose the habitual answer is I Don't Know. But yeah I got a purpose.
The point is you're not consciously allowing yourself to acknowledge it. Stop saying purpose is redundant. And answer my challenge either here or in private.
Name 5 books you activated and what was your purpose and if you discovered more than one liSt it.
Very rarely do those who hope to learn PhotoReading do that with me. Those who do start to understand how to bring their purpose to conscious mind..
To say that purpose is redundant is giving in to I 'Don't Know' And if you don't want to know you aren't going to succeed with activation.

I am asking in addition to question of Stweet.
Do we base our purpose from the books on the basis of our goals (short or long) or from our vision (/mission) of our life?
I prefer short term goals. Often students have books that will see them through 3 or more years of education. They work with the book over the course of a year. Keeping an eye on the long term goal and working with the book for the more immediate goal of passing this particular section of the course is a huge stretch and a harder stretch on self motivation.
It's easier to focus on the more immediate goal of "activating this chapter for 20 minutes so that I can understand the lecturer better tomorrow." Will give you better insights than a goal of, "being successful in my own business which I'm planning to start in 1 or more years."
