SRI RICHARD JI, I WILL DO THIS. YOU HAVE ALREADY GIVEN ME A PARTIAL READING IN MESSAGE 412, WHICH IS ACTUALLY WHAT INSPIRED ME TO REQUEST A FULL VEDIC READING FROM ASTRAL GEMSTONE TALISMANS ONCE I FOUND OUT IT WAS AVAILABLE THERE. FYI, WHEN I ORDERED THE READING ON WWW.AGT-GEMS.COM/BIRTHCHART.HTML, SOME OF THE EMAIL LINKS DID NOT WORK, SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE ALL OF MY RELEVANT BIRTH DATA. DO YOU HAVE A SUGGESTED EMAIL ADDRESS I CAN USE BESIDES INFO? IF YOU PREFER I ADDRESS THIS IN A PERSONAL EMAIL, I AM HAPPY TO DO SO, BUT I THOUGHT OTHERS MAY HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM AND WILL WANT TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION ALSO. WARM REGARDS, DIVA DEVI We have quite a few PGA's working for us full time at 4 locations > plus the WWW, and they do charts every day.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Hello, 1. Where have I come from? Think about the challenges you have already faced and overcome in your life. Think about what you are most proud of, and your biggest accomplishments. 2. Where am I right now? Think about your life as it is. How do you feel about it? Are you happy? Is it all that you want? 3. Where am I going? Keeping your current goals in mind, reflect on where you want to be. Picture this place in your mind. Think about the steps you'll need to reach this place. 4. Have I given myself the best chance to succeed? Reflect on whether your past actions were enough to succeed at your goals. Next, make a list of the things you should do immediately that will help you begin living your dreams and give yourself a reasonable timetable to bring them to fruition. 5. Is my life an adventure? Do you wake up in the morning ready to greet a new day? You know in your heart whether you're excited or bored. Are you learning new things and going places you have never been before? If not, write down what it will take to make your life the adventure you want it to be. Trust me, my friend, if from time to time you review these questions and your answers, it will almost guarantee that you will move in the direction of your dreams. And remember that, along the way, you'll probably need to adjust your blueprint plan. As we go through life, we are constantly adjusting and changing our direction to meet our current goals. Believe me, if you do follow this plan, you'll be well on your way to fulfilling your dreams.
