Greetings from San Diego. I've had the course for a week now and would like to share my experience.
After photoreading Paul Scheele's The PhotoReading Whole Mind System on CD4, I decided to have a little fun with it and picked up a book I've been wanting to read for ages. I entered a relaxed state to preview and photoread The Art of Happiness At Work by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Howard C. Cutler M.D. one night before heading off to sleep. The next evening I entered a relaxed state and rapid read the book cover to cover (212 pages) in less than an hour. My speed came out to approximately 1,000 words per minute. I realize that's within the range of a normal speed reader. Yet, I was probably only reading at 400 words per minute prior. I can't tell you what a joy it was to get through the entire book in one sitting. Ideas from the first few chapters were just as fresh when reaching the end. So far, I've finished CD7 and have read a total of five books (The Art of Happiness at Work by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Howard C. Cutler M.D., When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Cover, + the two books by Paul Scheele that came with the course) . Within the week, my speed has definitely increased as well as my motivation to read. I can really see myself reading faster as I spend more time with this system.
