Ok I am going to bust you balls a bit because I fell into this same trap many years ago.

Ok stop right there. What would this have to do with Magick? It is just common sense. If you party, stay up late and drink....why is it Magick that your life is unfocused?

That is complete bullshit. Take every one of those books and toss them in the trash. They are written by wannbe gurus who have no real skill or knowledge. They want to turn these skills into a religion.
Some of the most skilled people I have met at any of these things drink, eat meat, and drink coffee. They ENJOY life. They laugh at the kind of advice you have been given.

I am not sure but there is no real way of verifying this beyond his personal belief. My opinion is that I disagree. First I would have to have an accurate way of measuring your vibrational level. Since that does not exist the rest is crap. The only thing that would make that true is if you believe it.
If you believe it will lower something then it will. It is a less than helpful hypnotic suggestion to give someone.
I am not going to even address Kenrick...My opinion of him is so low that I ignore anything that he says.

Well there I was at saki bomb Friday last week at mt favorite sushi bar
I have a few observations.
First, I always find it interesting when someone's FIRST thought is that the problems they are having must have to do with Magick or Vibrations. You want to be able to focus? Get sleep, eat right, stop getting drunk.
Second, Life is easy of you avoid the extremes. Balance is the answer. That means you can drink but not to the point you have hangovers. You can eat meat or anything else as long as you have a balanced diet. You can party but not every other night.
BALANCE!!!

Psychic influence is bullshit. I have never seen it work. It is a path for the weak minded who are afraid of face to face influence. Weak people will never be able to psychically force anyone or anything to bend to their will.
You question says everything. You are NOT getting the results you want in life and the MORE you follow this crap the LESS you will get. Already you are trying to blame your vibrational level for your failure. What are you going to try to blame next...the planets?
You want a better life? Try common sense. Try to learn the skills of communication and self improvement. Make a flexible plan.
Stop believing in fairy tales and start believing in yourself.
So what are you going to do Jonathan? Think of another excuse or make a plan for success?
Time to think,
Tom
