This is the thirteenth session of the ninth series of Lanzarote Sessions, transcribed during a break to the Canary Islands in March 2025. During our frequent visits, I sit in the power of the spirit at least once daily and allow the spirit-connect to share a message with me.

As I sit at my big desk in this sanctuary office, four computer screens lighting the work area, and my Kindle Scribe open on a stand revealing my todo list for today, I can’t help but think I’ve got so much to do this day. It’s Monday and the schedule for the week ahead is a busy one. But hang on a minute, am I supposed to be retired?
Indeed I am, but there’s a mistaken belief that retirement from a normal job means doing nothing anymore. How far is that from being true? Retirement from a day job doesn’t mean a working life ends, it just means retiring from that activity. I’m one of those ‘pensioners’ that has so much to fill my time with nowadays. But I do have a few issues within my makeup that can have an impact on the way I spend my time.
I’m a goal-orientated person, that needs to have an organised list of things I need to do. I update it constantly. I’ve come to rely on it. My list today consists of ten todos, three of which are everyday tasks, and three that are ongoing and incomplete. I find tremendous joy at the end of a day when I tick the final task as complete, and soon after start preparing the list for the next day. But I don’t always succeed in completing all the tasks on the list. Three, as I mentioned, are ongoing and a couple are tick-box simple tasks that’ll only take a couple of minutes each to do. Telling the time in Spanish, for example!
I set myself rewards nowadays. For example, when Friday comes I’ll be getting my candle-making gear out and enjoying a few hours making candles, a creative and relaxing pastime. I don’t push myself as much as it might appear though, and tend to stay within my comfort zones, probably to much, truth be told. One of my worse traits can be my lack of patience. When it comes to DIY, painting and home renovations, I tend to rush things a little too much. I want to get the job in hand done so I can move on. I’ve found, to my own detriment, that sometimes mistakes creep in, especially if I’m tired. My lack of patience comes back to bite me!
Thankfully, I’ve learned not to be impatient with my mediumship. That said however, when I sit to transcribe a message, depending on the pending schedule, I have been known to try to rush things a little too much. In this session, the speaker notes that and offers me some strong advice. It’s the sort of help that everyone could benefit from heeding.
I appreciate that not everyone wants to work with a daily todo list as I do. But if you’ve not tried it, why not start. Yes it takes a degree of discipline and consistency to get established, but I find the rewards far exceeds the chore.
THE SPIRIT INSIGHT
transcribed on Monday, 17th March 2025, at 4:40 pm
I kept you waiting. Your energy wasn’t strong enough. You know that it gets stronger during the connection, but it needs to be strong enough for me to blend with you.
Impatience was mentioned by the previous speaker, but I want to unfold this aspect a little further. This is something you could learn about as well, not just those reading this.
You’ve heard the saying that patience is a virtue, so the opposite must be true for impatience. Haste is not always the wisest move.
When you were preparing to connect for this session, you took too many shortcuts. Your prayer was rushed and your mind was still rushing with thoughts about what I might talk to you about. That is why I held back.
Why you were trying to decide what I would talk to you about is beyond me. You know that is not up to you to decide. And rushing to commence this session is foolish. You have nothing pressing to get on with, so please learn. Impatience is not good when working with us.
Now, I’ve used you as an example in the hope that others will begin to appreciate a little more that connecting and working with us is going to take time to do proper.
So many mediums believe they can stand in front of people and relay our words and messages without first giving it preparation time. Even the greatest of all mediums spent time preparing. This medium relaying my words has developed routines for his work. They are good and well adjusted. Every aspect of this routine is, if you like, the starting sequence for our connection.
It is needed. Don’t ever believe people are able to connect to us without some form of preparation. If they say they don’t need to they are either not telling the truth, or not fully connecting with us this side.
We would like nothing more than the standards of mediums to improve across your planet. If every medium were to establish a routine and use it every time, the connection they make to their connect here would be that much better.
Learn to appreciate and practise patience all the time. All good things are worth waiting for, and with this work, a few minutes is nothing to wait.
The quality of your mediumship could be compared with your patience in this work. Patient mediums are nearly always better than the hasty and impatient ones.
Patience is a beautiful quality in a person. Someone that is not rushed is someone that is not led by their heart first. Waiting is a sign of respect, where a person can make better decisions on balance.
So my friends, I’ve lectured this medium who has written my words perfectly. But I’ve meant for the words to touch you as well.
Remember, patience is a virtue. Live by it.
Goodbye to you.
MY AFTERTHOUGHTS
written at the time of this presentation
🔷 I wonder if I’m in the wrong position in life to be able to dictate to others to stop rushing through their life as if everything has to be done today. When I worked, everything about the job was about meeting tight deadlines and not deviating. Since that lifestyle is behind me now, I am learning to slow down with less haste and more enjoyment of the moment. As I mentioned in the Preamble, I still need the disciplines of a daily schedule, but I don’t believe that to be a bad thing. That said, I take on board the basis of this speaker’s message to me and you. When it comes to working for accurate communications from the spirit people, patience is most certainly our most important asset.
🔷 Yes, it gets my back up when some mediums declare that they can address their gathering without needing to prepare. Personally, I find that approach somewhat disrespectful to those fine people across the veil who want their communication to be successful and accurate. If there’s one important aspect of a new medium’s (or many established) work that should be focused on is their need to be patient. If so many mediums want to become good or better mediums, surely patience is the first and most important facet to harness.
🔷 Yes, the speaker is correct of course. I do have routines, or rituals if you want to call it that, that I follow religiously. They work for me and without them, I think I’d be lost in this work. Whether reading my tarot, partaking in healing, or attuning to the spirit world, I always use a routine that I’ve honed and works for me. It would be an interesting question to ask a medium on first meeting them, “what are your routines for connecting to the spirit world?” I’d be concerned if they suggest they don’t have any whatsoever. Perhaps their experience has led to the routines becoming so embedded that they don’t even notice them. Perhaps!
“Learn to appreciate and practise patience all the time. All good things are worth waiting for, and with this work, a few minutes is nothing to wait.”
THIS SESSION WILL BE RELEASED TO THE MAIN WEBSITE AFTER 29th SEPTEMBER 2025
