Just our old reading habits are hard to kick.




Yes, that is the main problem! But when was the first time you released your old reading habits?

Sometimes it is amazing to hear how people start to believe something that is unbelievable in our minds.

Sometimes it creates disappointment to realise that you're not on their timeline. Too many people compare rather than just do it.

A third test

Right now i am capable to complete my activation in 20 minutes(5 page chapter)

1)5-6 min preview (7 trigger words = 7 questions)
2)30-40 sec Photoreading
3)1 min - postview(to see where everything is located)
4)Incubation 20 min
5)Activation - 20 min

I think i've got everything but to stay on the safe side, I will Rapid read this material


Best wishes,
AndriDem

Have you already PhotoRead the whole book? If so it isn't necessary to PhotoRead it again. And if you do PhotoRead it again include the two chapters before and two chapters after as well (especially if it's only 5 pages)

Also for so few pages do only a single 7 minute activation and that's fairly generous but it's more than enough if you're going to follow it with a rapid read anyway.

I am photoreading only chapters. And the magical thing about SR is that it works by itself. What I mean is that my eyes are deciding all by itself where to photoread. And i can't go further before i dipped in. And I feel really that the paragraphs gel. But i sometimes i have doubts about this process. I mean that i am just regular reading(although i understand that I am not). But i think this feeling will soon disappear.


Mind maps are great. They help me to remember important dates. But someday i want to remember them without making notes, but until the time has come I will do mind mapping.

I suggest you PhotoRead the whole book and be done with it. Then you just need to activate the chapters.

Ok will do. Is it normal that sometimes a newbie photoreader feels that he is regular reading although he knows he is not?

It's normal for a newbie to fall into the trap of regular reading. When dipping keep it short remember to pull out and get back to superreading when you have some of it but not quite all of it.
