Many people have been making logs and I have seen that it is helpful for those reading it and for those writing it, so I decided to make one.  I'll say what I do everyday or at least say what is new and exciting
What I can do/want to do:
Psychokinesis: I was able to spin the psiwheel 360 degrees one way and then 180 degrees back (no hands), but then school came and I stopped for a while.  Now I can shake the psi wheel at best.  I practice with pendulums a lot and practice a lot with rolling things.  With pendulums I can make them swing if they're stationary and make them swing a little more in the way I want if they aren't.  With rolling I roll the object one way and either make it keep going or make it go the other way.  I have made a pencil go back one ridge.

Telepathy: I absolutely suck!  I mean with the influencing people to do things, I am okay.  In school I walk and tell people to move out of my way and they generally do move a little, but it hasn't worked with people in front of me who can't see me because I probably don't expect them to move and they didn't already have an intention to move.  So please help me with that

Aura Seeing:  I see auras, only about an inch thick though, and the colors take a while to see and when I see them I have difficulty deciphering what they are.  I have however seen my own and I know it is green.

Energy Manipulation: I can make a psi ball gather in my hand just by cupping my hand and telling it to gather.  I have tried flaring, but have had no luck.  I felt so close once.  I made the biggest psi ball I have ever made before and told it to get brighter, but got nothing.  I did see some purple blotches eventually (happened two separate times), but I assume that's nothing.  Oh and I suck at programming.  I'll tell the psi ball to do something and it'll just stay there in my hand

Astral projection:  I  might have gotten to the vibrations stage, but I don't know what that feels like.  I pinch myself every now and then and tell myself that it hurts and therefore are awake and once in the morning I dreamt that I pinched myself and it didn't hurt and then I felt like my head was spinning. 

Precognition:  No luck

[Osmiral]

What technique do you use for psychokinesis?

[meushiman]

I move my awareness into the object, give it a push or whatever, remember any feelings I got and how the object moved, and then try to feel the feelings again and think of the object moving how I saw it.

Today, I tried to move the psiwheel and had no luck.  I pushed it and then tried to move it and it stopped.  So, I gave up a little and accidentally moved the psiwheel when I moved my arm.  I tried to move it again and it moved 45 degrees and stopped

[meushiman]

Alright last night, I was trying astral projection and I got to a point where I actually achieved something.  I thought I opened my eyes a little because I saw what was right in front of me, but cut in half horizontally by what I thought were my eyelids.  This happened before, but I just assumed that it was me opening my eyes.  Although, I finally achieved "opening" my eyes later on and noticed that things were somewhat blurry compared to actual vision.  Like things still had shape and definition, but were less defined I guess.  So, I felt my eyes and felt that both of my eyes were closed.  I then got 1. a little scared and 2.a little nauseous (no idea why).  I felt a little sensation near my dan tien (for those who practice tai chi) and also in my head.  The dan tien one felt like something was trying to punch its way out and the head one seemed like my mind was half in and half out of my body.  I could not move out of my body or in any direction during this.  Oh and I made a bird house rotate the way I wanted when I saw it rotating by the wind and then failed when the wind stopped

[meushiman]

Alright, I looked inside my room with my eyes closed again.  Do you think that's the start of remote viewing or astral projection?  Also, how would I be able to move my sight past just what I can see by moving my head.  It's like I am seeing with a different set of eyes, but the eyes are in the same place as my regular eyes

[TheUnforgiven]

I believe that is more remote viewing than astral projection.

[meushiman]

I figured, but I should still be able to move my sight around, right?  How can I do this
Oh and I haven't been writing on this log in a while because I've been real busy, but nothing exciting happened while I stopped posting.  I practiced making psiballs and looking with my eyes closed

[TheUnforgiven]

Well in short yes you should be able to. How can you do that? Well the simple answer and most obvious one is pratice. The more you pratice the better you will get at a skill. So next time you try to do this actually try to move your perception around and see what happens. Try and see what works for you. If one method doenst work make up another one, try something else. Its all guess work. Stopping now 'cuz I realize Im not helping much. You already should know that.

[meushiman]

Nah, that's good advice

[meushiman]

You know I don't feel my title of Full Member is right for me.  I would say I am still a noobie.  I mean ooooo...I can move pieces of paper and look at auras, but only see it as a transparent aura with no color.  And when I say move pieces of paper, I mean make them shake a little.  I can move pendulums as well, but not very far and I can make a pen roll one way (physically) and then make it roll back a little (with psionics).  Guys, the truth is, I need help

[meushiman]

Alright, so my family had a birthday party for my dad and there were these ribbons hanging from the ceiling with his age on it.  I made them turn in the way I wanted, but then after a 90 degree turn, the string got too winded up and tried to turn the other way.  I maintained its position.  Also, I tried to levitate a balloon.  I felt confident, but I don't know why and it turns out the confidence didn't help so....any do you have anything that could help?  It could be on anything: levitating balloons, astral projection, telepathy, precognition, any of the things I said I was interested in at the top.  Please, I need help

[meushiman]

Sorry I hadn't posted in a while, I've been busy.  Although, I have made a pendulum start moving faster when it was barely moving and also made it change direction.  Also, I took the pain away from a growing pain.  But, when I took the green energy away from it, the pain came back after like one or two seconds.  That's probably because I didn't really want to mess with the growth of my bones though

[meushiman]

I am getting pretty good at getting rid of pain, but whenever I get rid of a headache my face turns red and warm.  Thoughts?  Also, I have gotten good precognition without really trying.  I was playing Mario Party and was able to tell what mini game we'd play if I didn't really concentrate on it

[meushiman]

     The precognition continues.  I was just on the bus and I saw a yellow car in the parking lot of a Stewarts and thought "Yellow car!"  It's a game I play with my family.  Basically if you see a yellow car on the road, thefirst person to say yellow car gets a point.  By the time you stop driving, who ever has the most points wins.  Commercial vehicles like buses, taxis, etc. are negative points if you say them and so are cars in car dealerships.  Anyway, I saw the yellow car, thought "Yellow car!" and then someone in the back of the bus screamed "Yellow car!" 
     I have absolutely no control over my precognition.  I know I have to zone out and not really think about it, but how does that help if the things I want to know (like if I what I got on a test I just took) won't show themselves because I thought about it.  I mean in the Mario Party I was thinking about it a little, but I want to be able to predict what my whole day will be like before I know of any plans for the day.  Advice would be appreciated

[meushiman]

Alright, I have started noticing that I have been shocking things more often.  Nothing big, but usually once or twice a day I touch metal or a person and I shock them.  I'm not too concerned, but is this normal?

[Akaran]

In the colder and drier months it's much easier to pick up static electricity. I constantly get shocks when I touch anything even remotely metal. When my rubber shoes touch metal chair legs my feet get shocks through my shoe. When I touch anything that has metal inside it I get shocks. It's normal, trust me. Heh.

[meushiman]

I was just wondering because I touched my light switch in the morning and I saw a blue spark shoot into the switch from my finger and I started doing a form of energy manipulation involving electricity.  Basically, it's like an electro-psi ball I've been making.  When I make it I don't feel the usual tingle in my hands.  When I make a psi ball I get a tingle in multiple points on my hand.  When I make an electro-psi ball I get like a streams of the tingly feeling up/down multiple regions of my hand.  Moreover, it feels indescribely a little different.

[Akaran]

Yeah. I've touched my rubber shoe to a chair leg and got a blue spark. I win.

[meushiman]

Alright, let's not try to create a competition out of this because I would see electricity jolt across from body to my chair in music class all last year.  I did that on purpose though. 

Although, I guess in terms of progress I have reached one of those points in practice where you're like "I don't want to practice."  I am so discouraged by astral projection.  Every time I think I am about to ap, I realize that my actual body is moving in response to my wishes to ap. 
For psychokinesis, someone stole my toothpick for the psi wheel again and I'm using that as an excuse. 
For healing, I haven't had a pain in a while, so I have nothing to practice on. 
For energy manipulation, I keep creating the electro-psi balls and created a pretty strong feeling up through my fingers today when making one.  Also, I still have Willis helping my relative
For telepathy, I use telepathic suggestion a lot to get people to move out of my way in the halls and have had minimal success.  But, with telepathy itself I have never gotten time to practice with someone on my symbolism.  Wait is that just for sensing?

[Akaran]

I think it can be in both, although when someone thinks of red, you should be able to pick up red and not black (because you view black as an angry colour.)

Neeros has written a good article that you can really get started with if you follow it. It's great because it shows how you can learn to do magical operations which manifest physically in a relatively short amount of time.

The problem most people seem to have is they can't focus properly and they don't believe in themselves. Those are my two main problems. Heh. You need to know your spell/whatever will work. This is why some people fake it until they make it. This doesn't mean falsely believing you've done something when you haven't, or believing that you can shoot physical fire out of your hands. This means when you are healing that knee you know you can do it, even if you didn't do it in the past. If you fail, shrug and move onto the next thing. Even after you've failed you should have full conviction that what you are doing will work. That's hard I admit, but you need to have that belief.

One exercise I've heard of is not telling yourself that you'll do something unless you'll actually do it. This may mean setting some of your goals a little lower than you'd hoped but at least you'll achieve them. Then you know that what you choose to happen or do, happens. This may mean saying no to whatever the general consensus is in your area, but you need to exercise your will. If you don't want to go to church, don't go to church. You should also find out what you really want and what you really like and dislike.

These things are beginner exercises to most magical systems, and the psionics area is greatly lacking in them. Except for maybe a whole bunch being DBZ wannabes.
