"Talent" in psychic or mediumship development

​Lets talk about "Talent" in connection to psychic or mediumship development for a minute.

Talent is not some kind of magical fairy dust that some people were born with, and others not. Talent comes from having a certain understanding of something, that makes it easier for that person to get out of their own way and align with how readings work.  That understanding is built off of that person's experiences and point of view. Some people's experiences and point of view make it easier for them to understand how readings work and how to align themselves with the energy and get out of their own way. Some people's experiences make it more of a trek to get out of their own way and align with how readings work. It might take them more effort, but it doesn't mean that they can't be just as successful as the first person.  

The reason I want to talk about this is because developing psychics and mediums often get tripped up by their own limiting beliefs about talent. They stop themselves from developing because they are worried about not being talented enough. Or they get tripped up by the possibility that it isn't their "destiny" to become a reader, or worried that they were not born with the special "ingredient" for them to become a psychic or medium. 

These concepts and ideas of "specialness" aren't helpful and are often the biggest hurdles for students to cross. Our low self-esteem clings to these ideas, as a way to keep us from failing. To keep us from trying something new. To keep us from any disappointment of pursuing something we like and it not working out. That our desires will fail us and cause us more pain.

The truth of the matter, is that if you have a genuine interest and feel truly drawn in this direction, that is a good sign that this is the direction for you, whether or not that means you end up as a full-time psychic, or it ends up being part of a different journey for you. 

Of course, you can't half-ass your way through your development. It can be a bumpy ride. It's not necessarily for the faint of heart. But true desire matters more than any talent/"destiny"/secret ingredient.
