Ya! its normal.
But with practices suggested in the PR book, you can improve your vision to full lines and even paragraphs.

You run your eyes down the middle of the page, making a column which is about an inch to an inch and a half wide. Your eyes will jump outside that column. If you need to dip anything along the edges. Trust the process.

One last question that bothers me in the process of activation: If i SR or skitter, I sometimes don't get the meaning of the sentences or the paragraphs.Like in skittering: i recognize all the words, paying attention to those that carry meanings and still don't get what was this paragraph about(sometimes I forget what was this particular sentences or paragraph about). Is this normal?

P.S thanks for your replies

If you don't get the meaning it probably isn't relevant to your purpose or question.

The conscious mind can only handle 7 plus or minus 2 bits of information a second. In order to have something conscious you have to for the time being forget everything else.

Ok, for example there will be a paragraph about the Estonian independence: Who fought for it, where did it happen and so on. What if I recognize the useful parts and still can't remember them? (it is a part of my purpose)



Best wishes,
AndriDem

Mind map. Mind mapping aids the memory. Create associations using your memory web. Mind mapping is the easiest way to do that.

It's important when you learn something new that you have no connection with to create the connections for remembering. The more you do that the more automatic it becomes so it seems like you're just remembering

Another technique is analograffiti.

But remembering is one thing - understanding another. If I understand correctly: All the unknown phrases or paragraphs, that I put in my mind map will help me understand the material? Using 3-4 words like in the manual is said.

You asked me about remembering.

I've never met anyone who mind mapped and didn't understand what they were mind mapping about.

OK, i will while SR keeping my purpose and my questions in mind and trust my intuition. Then everything important will go to my mind map.

But i've read here somewhere, that you can combine skittering and SR. How?



Best wishes,
Andridem


P.S Sorry for bothering you
Thanks for your help!
