It means very little what others think of you

When you take things personally, you feel offended and react by defending your beliefs, which leads to conflict. You end up making a mountain out of a molehill because you need to be right, and prove others wrong.

Following this advice from Maria Duval: It matters very little what others think of you. Whether good or bad; do not take it personally. What others feel or think about you is their problem, not yours. It is their way of seeing the world.

Some people will think you are lovely and some will consider you as annoying or selfish others will see you as skilful and others as clumsy: Their opinion of you will depend on their belief system.

Maria Duval: Do not take insults from others personally

Many people feel down and dispirited when they heard other people throwing insults at them or criticize them. Those who are weak-minded may even stray into mental turmoil as they struggle to contain these harsh words reverberating inside their minds. If this is not controlled, it can lead on to even more tragic events...

Psychic Maria Duval has come to address this very common human actions of insulting one another. What Maria says is that we are all responsible for our own actions, as all of us have our dreams, and each one of us is different. When you take an external insult at you too personally, you are assuming that others know what your world is like, and trying to set your world against theirs.

Maria Duval adds that when a situation seems very personal, even when the odds are bad against you, what is being badly about you has nothing to do with you. Those words are just purely their own opinions and what they conclude in their own minds.

Importantly, you should not confuse what others do (the objective facts), what you do (the feelings and emotions that arouses in you) and what you subsequently do (your personal reactions and decisions).

If someone comes to you and say you are really a big muddle-headed and clueless person, how will you react? First of all, Maria Duval advises, do not ever take those words personally, because what this person is actually confronting their own feelings, beliefs and opinions. They are trying to make you feel guilty and if you take it personally, you will take it and soon, assimilate it.

Online Psychic Advice

People mostly consider psychic advice when faced with a difficult situation. In our life, there are circumstances when everything seems complicated. People are unable to understand what to do and everything seems blurred and bleak. There may be matters that may not be discussed with known people and these can be testing times. In situations such as this, people tend to turn to a psychic reader.

The ever-increasing demand for psychic advice is a result of people having fast paced and stressful lives. This belief in the unknown provides solace to customers. With very little time to spare, people no longer visit psychic faculties at regular periods. Acquiring these services is very easy with the advent of online psychic advice.

People may experience unrest during the night regarding their work or household fights. It is now possible to contact an online psychic at any time of the day or night to get an answer to problems. The method allows a psychic to conduct a psychic reading, irrespective of where people are and what the situation may be. Advice is just a click away.

It is obvious that people will be skeptical about consulting an absolute stranger. What is more bizarre is the fact that people are willing to talk to someone who is not physically present. In order to build the trust of the prospective customers, many of these online advice sites provide free online psychic advice. This practice is very beneficial, since potential customers will be more open to the service when there are no financial obligations.

It is true that people would rather experience a live psychic reading. However, the demand for free online psychic advice is growing. A benefit of these services is that they are able to provide psychic predictions and responses as and when a person needs them. However, we do not always have the time in our busy lives for this service. Free online psychic advice services fit very well in our busy schedules. It is important to realize that these services are extremely personal and results will vary from person to person.

A Glimpse Into the Psychic World

Now that I no longer work for any on line psychic company, I want to talk about some of the things that go on with these companies. There are two very large companies that have psychics working for them. These psychics are considered sub-contractors and are responsible for their own taxes. Since these companies do not send out 1099 at the end of the year, they basically are telling their sub-contractors declare as much or as little as you want to the federal government. By doing this, these companies can also declare as much or as little profit to the government.

Although there are many sites online for people to get psychic readings, most are part of these two companies. A reading on - yahoo for example, is really connecting to one of these two sites. I remember there was a company that offered 99 cent readings. This was part of one of these companies. It had 'new' psychics working on there for them to get clients who would then be transferred to the main company.

The companies charge anywhere from 40% on up when someone calls a psychic. As I have stated over and over again, there are no regulations or guidelines for psychics. Anyone and everyone can claim to be psychic. All these people have to do is agree with what the caller is asking about and give positive feedback. It does not matter if this is the truth because most of these so called psychics would not recognize the truth if it bit them in the butt.

Hollywood made a big deal about soul mates. Now almost every one of these psychics have something saying how they will be able to connect you to your soul mate - just call them for the ridiculous amount of money they charge per minute. Are you interested in someone that is married and has children? No problem, that person will definitely leave their family to be with you forever. Just to make sure, the 'psychic' will use a 'love spell' on that person.

Spells do not work. Candles do not work. Curses only work if the person whom the curse is put on believes in them. Subconsciously the cursed person is making the curse work. All three of these are a bunch of garbage.

People also call psychics to find out their future. We make our future. The choices we make today affect our tomorrows. There are no easy answers. There is nothing that can be done to reverse previous choices. There are no spells that can reverse time, although I have seen where psychics claim this can be done, for a price.

Some of these companies have spyware. Anyone that calls one of these companies and 'chats' automatically has downloaded this spyware onto their computers. There are soldiers that still call these companies, although the military has forbidden their computers to be used in this manner. This gives the company access to military information. We are now talking about troop movement, logistics, and military plans.

There are callers that are mentally ill. They steal from family to pay for calls to psychics. The psychics probably know this, but a buck is a buck and how they get it does not bother them.

I have seen where some so called psychics claim to have predicted events. This is because they have seen where true psychics have put predictions on line. When these predictions come true, others immediately claim to have said the same thing. No one checks if this is true. They just automatically believe it.

I am thinking of one specific 'psychic'. This woman charges something like $7. a minute and she does not know her butt from her elbow. The word 'psycho' should be used in front of her name. This woman claims to be a top psychic, and tells people what they want to hear. She also makes it a habit to say negative things about any psychic she knows is real. She has been listed on scam sites for years, but people still call her.

http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff181894.htm This is for anyone that wishes to read about psychic scams.

I have mentioned groups before. Any psychic that belongs to a group keeps notes on every caller. Anyone in the group can access these notes. If the same person calls another in the group, the second psychic amazingly knows everything about the caller.

If anyone is interested, go to any psychic website and check out what hype the psychics are writing. Automatically discount any psychic that mentions spells, candles, etc. Next, discount any that mention help with love life. Also ignore any that claim to be a top psychic. See how many are left on these sites.

The companies that run these sites know most of their so called psychics are phony. It does not matter. As long as they make money from lonely, confused, unwary people, they will continue to allow it to go on.

If anyone reading this feels as I do, that something must be done to start protecting innocent people from some of these scam artists, call or write to the Federal Trade Commission. If enough people demand an investigation it will happen. We stopped Ms. Cleo. We can clean up this mess also.

Prevent emotional poison - Speaking in a "right" way

In your daily interaction with others, follow these simple rules so that you can express your energy as a form of words wisely:

- Do not use words against yourself (putting yourself down, words of criticism, blame, shame, reproach, etc. )

- Simplify your language as much as you can. Be as concise and specific as possible. Don't use words or expressions you don't really know the meaning of, as this can lessen the clarity of your thoughts.

- Don't be judgemental.This is the worst form of emotional poision and the negative energy it generates will inevitably come back to you: You will be "casting a spell" on yourself!

- Never give your opinion about people you don't know.

By following these simple rules from Maria Duval, you will sign new agreements based on truth and you will gradually free your mind and your personal relationships of all emotional poison. Your words will become purer and more true.

Using True Words

It's common knowledge to know that it is better to think before you speak. The old French adage "turn your tongue seven times in the mouth before speaking" makes a lot of sense, as what Maria Duval says.

But the idea of true words most importantly means not rejecting, judging or critising yourself through the language you use. In other words, don't use your own words against yourself.

This also includes other people. For example, if you meeting someone you dislike, and you treat them as if they were some kind of idiot (even of you don't say anything out loud) you might think that you are using your words against them. But in actual fact, what you are doing is using your words against yourself, because this person will hate you and their hatred won't do you any good at all. So, if you get angry and use your words to send them your emotional poison, you are in fact using the, against yourself.
