A Psychic Skills Self-Assessment

Your Unique Psychic Knowingness
Have you ever noticed that the résumés or biographies of many psychics begin with something along the lines of, "I've been this way since I was little?? I am one of those people. I cannot recall a time when I wasn't psychic. Even if the word psychic has not resonated with you in the past, a lifelong journey working through your intuition is not a rite of passage. In other words, if you do not remember or believe that you were psychic as a child, it in no way makes you less qualified to be so now. Everyone may be born a psychic, but many have yet to realize, understand, or utilize their abilities. A Psychic's Handbook will meet you where you are. Whether you remember being psychic or something is just now enticing you to gather information, some part of you wants to explore your psychic knowingness.

Checkup: Psychic Self-Assessment Baseline
This psychic self-assessment checkup determines your baseline for psychic knowingness, which will help you begin assembling your handbook. Let's start with an honest psychic self-assessment. Answer the following questions based on what you are like instead of what you aspire to be. If you answer honestly, you will advance much more quickly because, from the beginning of constructing your handbook, you are releasing the need to be right, or what many call "having an attachment to the outcome." You are acknowledging that you are not omniscient. Write yes next to the statements that apply to you and no next to those that do not.
