Hi all--
I want to know if a person can combine the use of paraliminal tapes, Photo Reading, and the Memory Optimizer to create a genius I.Q.?

Jonah,

Throughout the past years, there has been much evidence supporting that techniques utilized by Learning Strategies and other accelerative learning courses can stimulate brain patterns and improve overall IQ. Win Wenger, author of The Einstein Factor, introduced Image Streaming which uses all areas of the brain to collaborate and improve on the IQ. "Growth of the Mind" by Dr. S Greenspan reinforces Wenger's technique. He wrote that children who answer with creativity and own thoughts tend to be better off than a rote yes or no. "Sparks of Genius" by R and M Root-Bernstein explained that the general people believed that a typical depiction of a genius tended to be an extremely well-educated person who uses complex formulae to express their own intelligence. But Root-Bernstein said that they (Einstein, McClintock, etc.) had attained their theories and insights from creativity and visualization. For example, Einstein started his relativity theories from his imagination.

Other factors can't be disregarded either. Enjoying vast fields of skills such as music, art, and even fixing your hamster's cage will have some effect on your creativity. Not all of the "genius" source lies on one factor. But as you see, even Learning Strategies encourages the use of the subconsciouss, the source of these insights and the whole brain.

But these things do not occur overnight. What separates us from the best and the rest is that some are more efficient and better experienced on the brain. They already have an excellent growth of the brain they started to use as a child. As evidence showed, intelligence is 48% hereditary and the rest from the environment. I hope that answers your question.

But that leads me to another question. Some people exhibit tremendous effort on these tools. I see people doing these things all the time, but why do some people display genius-like aspects but some don't? Thanks.

jo31p,
Thanks for the quick reply. I forgot to mention 'flow' but I figured 'NOPS' of Photo Reading (NOTICE, OWN, PLAY, STAY WITH IT) is the same.
To answer your question about the genius, I think the one who succeeds is the one who isn't afraid to try something new and fresh,
while the other, thinks that the only way is though the 'established educational system'
(i.e. If Mr. Klausmeier taught that you had to learn physics in a classroom with a teacher, he would belive that, but not that you could learn physics through sports.)
One is open to new ideas and ways the other is not. BUT they have the same potential.

I hope this helps.

Everything builds and works synergistically with everything else. I've noticed my desire to workout increase since my time with Photoreading, for that I have no explaination and I ain't complaining. I think that all you mentioned will work by themselves but even better together because your giving your brain a variety of things to do and not just getting carried away with one thing which may lead to boredom. You may find yourself getting interested in things you had no interest in before.
