Default Another Intro Thread =D

Hey all,

I've posted here before, but that was months ago, and hadn't visited SP in ages. I saw it in my bookmarks, and decided it was about time to come back and have a look!

Well, I'm hooked. I've read lots of the articles, and am currently downloading the rest of the podcasts.

First, a bit about me. My name's James and I'm a 15-year-old student from the UK. Not really sure what else to say, but ask whatever you want and I'll answer! (Within reason ).

I'm starting to get a problem though; I have no idea where to start. I know this is going to sound stupid, but with some of the articles/podcasts I just get confused and can't seem to understand (I blame being 15 ), which is really annoying me. Or sometimes I think I understand it but when I try it myself it just doesn't work.
Take, for example, podcast #003, "Consulting Your Intuition". I understand it, but when it comes to the practical parts, like the imagining, I just don't seem to be able to get anywhere. I've tried, but I get nothing. I've had images, and can give them meanings, but a) they don't seem to make sense and b) I think it is my concious doing all the work.
I've found this with other articles and podcasts too.

Can anyone just give me some advice? I'm not really sure what I'm looking for as far as advice goes though, that's the problem. But any advice is appreciated.

Thanks all,

James

Welcome, Drakelet.

Think of this site, the podcasts and all the rest as kind of a smörgåsbord. Some stuff might be very applicable, other stuff only so-so, and other info just not very relevant to your current situation. Take what you need, leave the rest.

Thanks! But what's a "smörgåsbord"?

I understand what you're saying though, and will follow that advice.

smörgåsbord = buffet. Usually found in Chinese and Indian restaurants under the banner of, "All you can stuff yourself silly with for $4.99"
