Subject: Watch Out For Psychics Who Say "Nothing

is Set in Stone"

Recently, someone e-mailed the following feedback
and question about fate, free will, and psychics to us:

"First, I want to say that the older I get the more I

believe you are right that the major events in our life

were planned by us before we reincarnated. While

many may find this frustrating and not want to believe

that they don't have total control over their future, I

actually find it comforting.

"There have been many times in my life where I have

put forth great effort professionally and personally and

things just didn't work out despite how hard I tried. It's

actually comforting to a large extent to know that those

things just weren't meant to be and there is a larger

plan for me.

"Unlike other people who may find your philosophy off

putting or limiting I like knowing that the next step or

steps in my life are inevitable (if I understand you

correctly) as long as I put one step in front of the other

and take action and do my best along the way.

"I wanted to ask though, I have been to psychics

before and many of them have been quite accurate in

predicting events in my life though their timing has

been off, why is it that many psychics believe that the

future is not fixed and free will can change anything?

This actually frustrates me when they say this

because I don't agree!

"Major events in my life have unfolded despite my "free

will" and efforts to change them. I just don't believe

things are ALWAYS in my control. You would think a

psychic would realize this? Why is it so many don't?"

Our Response

We believe it's important to always proactively take
appropriate action and assertively strive to reach your
goals, yet also realize that the belief of being able to
entirely "control your destiny" is largely futile and an
ego-self construct.

Our Direct Your Destiny (tm) e-package goes into detail
about this and empowers you to make the most of all
areas of life.

Directing your destiny is about taking the most
appropriate action (free will), which is innately part of
your destiny, and also directing your future life destiny
through doing the right thing now--destiny is something
that extends beyond this life, into future lives.

As we recommend in Direct Your Destiny (tm), keep
forging ahead in the direction you feel is optimum.

We believe the major events in your life are predestined,
as is meeting the major players. The minor ones may

not be, unless they influence you greatly. For example,

if you have a "chance" conversation with a stranger who

gives you information that leads you to significantly

change your life direction, that was likely destined. You

then used your free will to achieve your destiny; you

moved in that direction and made those choices

because they felt like the best options (such decisions

hardly seem like "choices").

You would think that most psychics would tell you that
many of your future life circumstances, events, and
conditions are set in stone, if they really can predict the
future. However, many of them don't, for one or more
of these reasons:

1. They don't know any better.
2. They don't want to disappoint you.
3. They don't want to believe it themselves.
4. They want an excuse as to why their prediction didn't
manifest and it's easier to blame it on the faulty "nothing

is set in stone" myth, or you for "not taking the right path"

or "not trying hard enough."

So what do you do? Keep doing everything you can to
reach your goals, yet take comfort in knowing that there is
much in life that you can't alter or avoid, and that your
energy is better allocated toward embracing and working
with your fate instead of attempting to override it.
