There is one point which I wish to stress at this appropriate time. It is something that will prove of great aid to every student of this advanced, intensely practical, time saving method. That is the habit of regular practice.
It has been suggested in the course, that you practice the exercises outlined night and morning. This is my best advice on the matter. There is a definite reason for this. The things which you do just before you sleep at night are more apt to be remembered than those which you do at odd times during the day. That is the reason for choosing bed time for one period of exercise.
You will find that if you have given concentrated thought and attention to the bed time work, that in all probability AUTOMATIC FINGER CONTROL will be the first thing you think of in the morning. And this is just the time to clinch the bargain. Get busy at once and do the exercises over again.
If you follow this procedure, you will learn very rapidly, and soon, the muscles will begin to keep time with your brain, which, after all, is the secret of the whole thing.
