5 Spiritual Blockages

Five states of life that you may like to improve on.

Spiritual laziness - when you feel like meditating or doing some spiritual practices, you will give yourself excuses to do it later, like maybe i shall take a short nap first, watch this TV program first, or any other excuses you may think so to "justify" your decision.]

Judgment - I begin to conclude that I don't like this person, that friend, my teacher, my colleagues and even myself! And I get easily affected by things or actions made by this list of people.

Doubt - You have growing self doubt about yourself and ability. You feel you are stupid and less clever compared to other people and you don't think you can win over this inner doubting monster of yours. You feel your life is a big waste of time and you are not making grades in life.

Craving - Well, it's simple, you find yourself more and more drawn to things that are more "exciting" or "interesting" than the tasks in your to-do list.

Restlessness - Your mind races and you cannot concentrate. You start remembering things you need to do. You have bills to pay, errands to run, calls to return and you have no time for anything else right now.

Psychic is not against religious belief

Since Marie Callas is a psychic, maybe I should clarify this common thinking that becoming psychic is against religious beliefs.

It's just old school of thinking because everyone has psychic powers. I believe that our source power or source energy comes within. Even in the bible a verse resonated with me. I cannot remember it word for word, but it was something like "Does he not know the lord lives within him". I take that to mean that my source energy is within me not in a church or in a rock. The bible even talks about a psychic at great length, ever here of "Joseph", you guessed it. He was a psychic and if it was fine way back then, it's fine now to become psychic.

Learn from your Past

We can always look at our lives as a great story. The past with its triumphs and troubles can be seen as a necessary part of the story that brought us to this moment. Through these ups and downs, we learn and we gain.

It’s often assumed that our past, our yesterday is just something to get over. We discard yesterday as dead and gone. However, these lessons are gifts from Heavens, mean to test and train our characters. But only if we can see it in a positive way and raise our life through the lessons we have learned.

Only you can answer yourself this question: What have I learned from the past so that I can really move on to the next level of life? Think about it, no matter your age, you can derive something meaningful and apply to it. So let’s focus on the positive themes in our lives, including the positive ways that we’ve overcome challenges.

Nature

Nature is beautiful.

Every element in nature serves a critical purpose on this earth. The link between the components that make an ecosystem is strong but the bond is weak. A minor tweak in the system can cause havoc and even catastrophe.

I just so sad that people are disregarding this fact and our nature has been so ravaged that one day the whole system is going to crumble or the ever increasing human demand is going to destroy our planet once and for all.

Take for example, it is said that the total fish quantity can only supply our demand for sea food for about another 20 to 30 years. Isn't that scary to know?

Just as nature needs its elements and resources to maintain that balance, we humans have found many ways of harnessing and using them for our very survival and everyday life. So far we have been taking so much without giving back the returns, I think we need to assign more Earth Days per year to create more awareness to more people that importance of environment and nature.

Positive v Negative People

Optimism is synonymous with positive mood and good morale. It is also linked to successes in athletic, academic, career, business, better health and lasting relationships. And further more, positive individuals are much more attractive to people than negative people!

Negative people tend to react strongly to stressful events, sometimes by denying that stress is bothering them. Negative people tend to react strongly to stressful events, sometimes by denying that stress is bothering them. Moreover negative or pessimistic people tend to avoid dealing with their negative situations and they give up more easily when problems or difficulties arise.

Positive people are also much more stress resistant. They are perseverant and they don’t give up easily. And it is in this way that they seem to get closer to their dream or passion each step of the way. Medical research has shown that positive people have better health and they age well. All in all, when you are not such a positive and optimistic person, there is every reason to learn to become one. Remember it is all a matter of choice!

Let’s get back on track! Focus a clear positive goal ahead of you and challenge yourself to see difficult situations as opportunities, instead of allowing them to bring you down. Together, we shall see each other at the top

Overcoming doubts in your mind

Doubts can quickly swallow a person's new found belief and faith. When doubt sets into his mind, the defence to fight against this enemy will determination how strong this person is mentally. If he is strong and has such impregnable faith, he will be fine but if the belief is weak in foundation, a shaky ground will allow doubt to devour the building in a short while and this may result in serious consequences.

Our mind starts racing and starts drawing conclusions and ideas from anywhere and everywhere. The majority of the time we have no idea if there is even validity in our thoughts, but we keep letting them work in our minds anyway. For example, many people doubt about Marie Callas' ability as a clairvoyant and whether she is able to promise what she has said.

To overcome doubt, first, we need to set our mind on hope. Hope is a feeling of what is wanted will happen, a desire accompanied by expectation, or to want. Once hopeful thoughts begin to enter our minds, anything can happen. Our perceptions and attitudes begin to change and we start to see the world, our selves, our friends, and our family differently. We are no longer confused and unfocused by thoughts of “What if” or doubt, but thoughts of possibility.

Lastly, moving from doubt to hope involves a change of mindset. This may mean that old habits need to be stopped or that a new habit needs to be implemented. What mindsets do you need to change? How can you begin to harvest hope instead of doubt? Having a mind of abundant hope is intoxicating. Begin to live this way today!

Self confidence

I met an old friend yesterday while strolling at the city centre with Ruth and he asked me whether Ruth was my wife. I told on straight that when I marry her, I'll invite him to the ceremony! He had a good laugh. I think my self-confidence really rubs off to the people around me recently. Once a person has self-confidence, anything is possible. Marrying her is a big possibility, and it's definitely in my plan because Marie Callas said this year I would encounter something 'blissful'.

Believing in oneself and have firm faith in your own ability and traits. Of course that does not mean got to be stuck up. I'm never a stuck up person, but I guess my attitude towards life was wrong previously that's why things have remained mouldy all these years. Marie Callas has taught me to be different and confident in fact.

I'd like to mix more with people with self confidence that's the best way to improve oneself isn't it? Once your mind starts to focus on that, your thought will emit the signals and soon you'll get what you want.
