"Dear Mr. Tony, how are you? I hope all is well. I saw yr latest FB post, and wondered if you had any advice for me. Maybe 20 years ago, I was at a family event and one of my aunt's friends was in attendance. She is known to be able to read palms/tell fortunes and she asked if she could see my palm. She gave me one piece of 'good news' (which has not come true) but the second was that I should never drive a car and that has affected me till today (I attempted a driving test once but failed). I am a Christian and not particularly superstitious, but my aunt was convinced of her 'prophecy' and accuracy because a few things she has said concerning my family came to pass, including that of my mum and my brother. So my aunt (we are close) is also very against me learning driving. I don't think I have the guts yet to learn driving immediately but how could I start to overcome this 'doubt' so it doesn't stop me from learning this practical skill? (Minus other factors that my mum also failed driving and I don't think I have the best hand-eye coordination?) Pls don't feel obligated to answer but if you feel like it, I would appreciate any wisdom on this, thank you!

Hello ___________!

As a general rule, never allow others to tell you what to do or not to do, especially when it comes to your personal development and happiness. Rely on your own objectives and your own initiative. While the palm-reader's foresight may have truth, what she is really saying is, "Go ahead and drive a car BUT always be extra careful." Her warning, to your own benefit, will always be in your subconscious.

Everybody changes with time. If you like, try to take a driving test again and see if you are much better at it now. You will be IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DRIVE. In the past your skepticism was holding you back. See if it still has control over you now.

Know what you really want. Then, go get it. Your spirit guides will abet you.
