I think I learn better by watching videos than reading.
Do you (or anybody else) have other good TGM instructional videos available to watch?

This website has a lot of good videos free or otherwise, Air. YouTube.com has lots of free videos under TGM including Ben Doyle, "Dirters" w/Steve Elkington. I feel the need for video as it gives me a roadmap. Use the search function here. Send us some videos from a cell phone!

I have ordered the "Alignment I" videos and bought The Address video and Brian Gay video. But I am struggling with the book.

Join the club. It isn't easy. However, once you get started, stay with it. It is a most helpful resource. Carry it with you wherever you go and when you have a little dead time, open it and get acquainted. The more you do it, the better you will like it.

I wonder if it takes a certain sort of mind to be able to digest this in a good way? I may view this more positive in the future (I hope so) but I find it overcomplicating to describe that you are holding a club with both hands and swinging it back and thru ( the ball), reviewing it in 5 or 6 or 7(or more?) ways, all with their own aspects, defintions and labels. "You can get afraid of the dark with less" (effort than this) (a clumpsy translation from my native language)

Rich Hunt as Richie 3-Jack did made a good effort at clarifying the book a bit. You might try there on his blog.
Personally, while I also find the Yellow Book complicated, I wouldn't live without it and use it often for clarification and edification. I suggest you take it in snippets.
As with me, keep it close at all times and just look. I think the more you use it, the more acquainted you will become and the more useful it will be. Granted, it is very easy to get frustrated.

My experience is that it is very difficult to learn something I don't understand. So I feel the learning process has to be simple enough to be able to learn what's necessary, before moving on in stages to more difficult stuff. Not learning something because it is too difficult at one stage also makes it incomplete and ineffective.

An easy reader version or TGM light would be a good first step. We have to learn to crawl before we can walk.
