This leads to frustration. Even after 4 th activation pass and still know nothing about the story!


That's why you do 6 to 9 activations. And then rapid read to conclude. One would only use this book as for literary discussion and school text. You don't do it for pleasure reading.

Okay. Thank you.

I find textbooks comparitively hard to activate. Do u advice rapid reading them directly without other activation methods, with a purpose in mind?

Textbooks with the "hard to read" style. No I wouldn't just go into rapid reading. When they are hard to read it means the stuff is new and if you want to understand, remember what you read it's better to give it more layers. So I would at least give it a couple of 10 to 20 minute activation layers before I rapid read. It is one text a rapid read serves to discover if you missed anything and check your understanding of what you activated previously.

Also if you're finding textbook difficult to activate, PhotoRead them again. Usually you can PhotoRead a textbook daily for 2 to 4 weeks and notice a difference in the activation.

hello Alex,

While activating novels for literary review, I usually finish my questions and find plot, characters, timeline etc within first 3-4 activation layers. But the book remains to gel.

So, what do I make it to 'gel' when I am done with my mind probing questions but want the book to gel?

Thanks!

Decide if you need another activation layer or two then do a rapid read activation layer.
