curvey the written materials
Pull out trigger words from these materials.
‡ Review the information you have uncovered and establish your goal for going further.
‡ Consider the traps of previewing. It may be best to survey briefly, for only a minute, then perform the
above as postviewing after you PhotoRead

c   

Prepare to PhotoRead.
‡ Enter the accelerative learning state.
‡ Affirm your personal abilities and the goal you will achieve from these materials.

‡ Enter the PhotoFocus state by getting a fixed point of awareness (tangerine technique) and the "blip
page."
‡ Maintain a steady state while turning pages and chanting.
Keep your breathing deep and even.
‡ In closing, affirm the impact the information has had and
your ability to activate it.
‡ If you kept your preview to a minimum before PhotoReading, consider performing your postview at this
point.
That means playfully explore the text to survey, pull out trigger words, and formulate questions without
reading to answer them.
10 to 15 minutes is usually sufficient

c 
 

Ideally, wait a few minutes, or overnight, after
PhotoReading before activating. This is a period of incubation.

‡ Probe your mind. Ask yourself questions about the material you PhotoRead. This starts your activation.
‡ cuper read the parts that attract you. Move your eyes
quickly down the center of the page to trigger large blocks of text into conscious awareness. The ideal
state of mind for activation is one in which you are attentive to subtle cues in the periphery
of your awareness.
‡ Dip into the text to read selected passages and answer specific questions you asked yourself. The
technique of rhythmic perusal is the best way to dip.
‡ ckitter as an adjunct or alternative to super reading and dipping. After reading the topic sentence of a
paragraph, skitter your eyes over the augmentation, then read the concluding
sentence.
‡ Create a mind map by making a visual diagram of the key ideas from the written materials.
‡ Explore other forms of activation including discussions and dreaming that use multiple intelligences.

c  

Move rapidly through the text, reading comfortably from start to finish without stopping. Take as much
time as you desire.

Vary your reading speed depending on the complexity and importance of the material.
