10 Ways To Guarantee Failure With Qigong
1. Practice Qigong Form Only
Forget that Qigong is a composite of Qigong form, energy/breathing and Mind. Just focus on the bit
you can see, Qigong form and ignore the rest. Yes you will look like you are doing Qigong, and
hardly anybody will be able to tell the difference.
2. Learn Only From Books & Qigong DVD's. Don't bother making the effort to find the best teacher
of Qigong that you can, don't waste your time, effort and money traveling to learn from them. Forget
the sacrifice of spending time away from your family and friends to learn directly from them.
Why bother when you can pick up a book from the store, or watch a Qigong DVD and teach yourself?
3. Don't Follow Instructions
If you do have a real live breathing Qigong teacher, the quickest way to guarantee failure is to not
follow their instructions. If they tell you to breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth
and you're not cool with that forget about it. Do it your way.
I mean come on, let's face it, you're actually doing the teacher a favor by turning up every week, why
should you bother following their instructions? The teachers a fool anyway, otherwise they'd know
that they could get better results by thinking about their angels, wearing the right crystal, whilst
humming the right frequency, tensing, stretching their muscles and visualizing the love of the
Buddha's whilst practicing Qigong.
Seriously, haven't they read the book?
4. Have No Idea Why You're Practicing Qigong

2. If you can't tell me in a sentence or two what benefits you specifically want from your Qigong
practice in the next 6 months and in the 12 months or so after that congratulations. You are well on
the way to failing with Qigong. Keep it up.
5. Be Tense
Hey, it's a stressful world we seem to inhabit. If you really want to fail fast with your Qigong
exercises then make sure you do them when you are physically, emotionally, mentally and Spiritually
tense. Qi finds it really difficult to flow harmoniously when you're tense so the tenser you are, the
more likely you are to fail with Qigong.
6. Make Sure Your Practice Is Haphazard.
Don't feel like practicing once or twice a day every day. Excellent you have what it takes to fail with
Qigong. Practice only when you can be bothered, take a few days off when ever you feel like it and
just see how quickly you don't get any beneficial results from your practice.
7. Give Up Now
Hey, come on, you've been practicing for a few weeks and nothing's happened yet? You can't set fire
to cotton wool just by looking at it? You mean you haven't overcome that illness you've had for the
last decade? You don't wake up in a morning feeling ready to jump out of bed kick ass and take
names?
Clearly Qigong doesn't work and you should give up now. I mean it's been a few weeks already.
8. Be Addicted to 'New'
Forget about practicing and practicing and practicing the two or three qigong exercises you know.
Forget about developing the core skills of Qigong by practicing, practicing, practicing. No, it's far
more fun and enjoyable to learn new forms, learn new stuff.
A really good way to fail with Qigong is to never scratch the surface of it by constantly moving on to
a new form, school or style.
9. Keep Thinking All the Time
Similar to #5 but significantly different if you think about it enough, from enough different angles.

3. Forget about enjoying your Qigong and analyze every single movement of the qigong exercise you
agonized over choosing, every single sensation. Approach Qigong as if you were going into a lab and
put everything under the microscope of your mind.
To really speed this one up, don't just keep thinking about what you're doing whilst practicing
Qigong, drag in unfinished business from the day as well. Forget about relaxing and enjoying your
practice. Chew on tomorrows meeting instead and what you're doing. This way you can multi-task
whilst doing your practice.
If you can keep this up for the full 15 minutes of your practice, you are well on the way to falling
with Qigong.
10. Distractions
Nothing says failure like practicing in a really rubbish place. Ideally you'll choose somewhere noisy,
dirty, and busy and if you want to fail super fast you could add dangerous to the list as well.
If you want to fail with Qigong forget about practicing in a place of nature, far from the madding
crowd with fresh circulating air. Thats for people who want to succeed with Qigong!
Conclusion
If however you wish to succeed with Qigong and your practice of Qigong exercises then simply
ignore the 10 suggestions above and do the opposite.
