Get two entirely different dictionaries. Photoread one and use the other to make a list of words. First photoread the one dictionary in a totaly relaxed, uninterupted, undaydreaming mood. Then make and take your list of words and try to remember where on the page these words were in the dictionary you just photoread (maybe wait 20 minutes). Try to guess which column, how high up in the column, and approximately how many words down the word is. This should prove that photoreading works. You may even get almost instant recall. A dictionary is "THE" book that beginner photoreaders should practice on.

The course recommends that you photoread 5 to 10 books a day so that your subconscious mind gets messed up and over time you actually become a photoreader. Although you will never remember what you read in the first 100 to 200 books; time and practice is the key. While doing this random photoreading and learning and remembering nothing, get to know and practice the other steps to photoreading so that they become second nature and when the photoreading begins to click in you may just be an instant master. It all must become second nature before it does click in.

The blip page can be found by making your eyes cross-eyed. Point your right eye at the left edge of the book and then point your left eye at the right edge of the book and you should get that mysterious one inch wide page in the middle that is the blip page.

When PhotoReading you do NOT cross your eyee! You relax your gaze and allow your eyes to focus beyond the book slightly - rather than crossing your eyes are actually parallel. The blip page is an optical illusion created by the slight divergence of your gaze and is not the important part of the PhotoReading process...it is nothing more than a tangential side-effect that lets you know that you have the relaxed gaze that is not "hard focusing" on any one part of the page.

The dictionary game is a useful tool to prove to yourself that something is happening during the PhotoReading process, and PhotoReading the dictionary also helps build neural pathways. However, I recommend PhotoReading anything you can get your hands on that interests you and activating whatever you want to know more about. One of the prime components in the whole PhotoReading process is purpose.

GhoSTz,

The best way to get started is by getting a copy of the "how-to" PhotoRead book at the bookstore or library. Read it inside and out, so you learn all about the basics, all 5 steps, each technique Then, you can start playing with the techniques right away, and post questions here.
