Hi,

1. You should be able to place the tangerine and forget about it (although, I'll check it periodically).
2. I think Paul suggests you wait at least 20 minutes. However, letting it gestate longer is giving your inner mind more time to make valuable connections.
3. Maybe you're putting too much pressure on yourself.
4. Mind mapping can be as simple or complex as you make it. Maybe you're trying to put too much into the mindmaps. You should be putting the information that you've gathered through dipping. If you're mindmapping the entire book in a sitting, you're going beyond the PR process.
5. The more photoreading you do, the better your skills will get and the more confidence you'll develop with your skills.
