|| This summary written on Friday 23rd August 2024
Many of the students of mediumship that I’ve known over the years share a common trait – the lack of desire to change and to learn.
There’s a common phrase, “If you want to change something in your life, you’re going to have to change something in your life.” As they say, the height of insanity is continuing to do something the same way yet expecting different results. Students of mediumship are often too selective with their ears. Hearing only what pleases them at that moment.
On the other hand, an enthusiastic student is always listening, always learning, and therefore always growing. I, too, have selective hearing at times. I believe I’m a good student of mediumship, but I can be a little stubborn when it comes to making necessary changes.
The speaker for this session is aware of my habits and suggests sensible ideas that we could all benefit from doing. The list of five ideas is not hard to undertake. The challenge will be in committing to them over a long period of time.
POST SCRIPT
In the past, I had done a similar exercise, which I have found in my journals. Reading through it, I’ve made changes to some of my intentions.
THE WFSIW SESSION
Hello. Many people connect to their people here and ask the same question time and time again.
"What do I need to do to make this process of communication easier?"
Some of the teachers here will suggest a few things that might help. But the teachers are aware that the querant isn't taking it in. If a teacher suggests ten things to the connected person, more or less every time they appear to only hear the one or two things that suits them at the time.
We still believe it's a worthy cause, to spend time sharing ideas with the earthbound student. We know that if they hear the same ideas time and time over, one day they'll be ready to hear the advice.
You are one of the worst type too. How many times have your earth tutors given you ideas and you've chose to selectively pick what suits you? I'm not complaining. Truth is we all have done it at some time in our journeys. Eventually we all cotton-on to the advice and then act upon it. Quite natural it would appear.
I wonder. What if I were to share a few pointers with you, and your readers right now? Would that be useful? Perhaps treat these as a personal check-list to follow and reference once in a while.
Write these down and please, only write my words.
① Write on a paper what exactly it is you want to choose with your spiritual unfoldment. Write the details in full and take your time doing it. Adjust it, if necessary until you are happy you have you your statement correct. Dont worry, this is for your benefit-not others.
② Write on the back of that statement what it is you believe you need to do to bring that statement into fruition. Remember, you will most likely have to make trade-offs. Less pub or telly time perhaps. An extra hour in the morning or evening devoted to this statement. Those first two exercises are the most important.
③ Write a list of your weaknesses regarding this work. What things you can do and those things you cant. A piece of advice - don't include anything about your abilities to connect with us; that is a by-product of your work.
④ Make a decision to trust, once and for all, that you are as good as any other person doing this work with us. So, on your paper, perhaps you only need to write a reminder, such as "I trust my abilities".
⑤ Your final item for your list. Write the date and the time, and make this the starting point for this new phase in your journey.
Thats it. There's no magic. All you need is a purpose and cause, and a determination to open yourself for the work ahead.
This medium was uncomfortable writing this list. He wanted to add his own interpretations, but I stopped him. Why? Because this list is for everyone, including him, and there are areas of improvement he could do to one or two of those list things.
You may be thinking that I've made it sound all so simple and for that I apologise. The steps are simple, but each will take time. The nitty-gritty things, such as bonding with your own spirit a little closer, trusting you have people from this world with you. Clarity of mind and vision, and other techniques can be learnt along the way. Your teachers are all capable of helping you with that.
What I have shared with you could be considered as your road map, your direction forward.
As this medium knows only too well, we're not always keen to advise, even though you ask so often. So on this occasion it was decided I should wipe the slate clean and reset your journey if you should need it.
One of the biggest lessons my connecting medium has learned so well over the past few years of his time is to trust himself. He does that so well now, as I am witnessing as he pens my words.
Many of the recent speakers who have spoken through him are good friends in my community here. They are loving, caring and beautiful individual souls that want nothing more than for you to realise that life is eternal, and wonderful. Have a lovely journey. I'll come back and speak again soon.
Goodbye, and good luck with your lists.
MY AFTERTHOUGHTS TODAY

104 days after the session was transcribed
As I mentioned in my preamble notes above, I have completed similar exercises to this one in the past. This session allowed me to update mine and give fresh thoughts to some of my expectations.
I get the impression from the shape of this session that the speaker didn’t set out to share this exercise. It appears that it was added to the speech as he or she was talking to me.
The speaker was keen to make sure that I didn’t write my own thoughts, instead only focusing on the connection and writing what the speaker wanted me to.
I believe that if one thousand students read this session, fewer than 1% would take the time to complete the exercise.
