No Control?, How do you know you got it? Options

It has been pointed out to me that my energy control/power is rather lacking. I have personally never had an issue with it, but it is going to pester me until I can devise a way to test that hypothesis. So that being said, I'm left with a problem, how do I know I'm <insert possible explanation here>?” Some things that where suggested to me include such diverse causes as binding, chakra problems, and general un-focus. If I do have a problem I would think, it would be in the later two. Because I have never been the most balanced person.

So to make things perfectly clear how do I test whether or not I am indeed lacking power and control? And how do I go about finding the cause?

Thanks in advance.

See how long it takes you to run a mile. The average person takes approx. 7 min.
Me maybe on a good day 13 min.

“…you don't eat right or drink enough water or get enough sleep, if you suffer from depression or anxiety…”

Well, yes, that is the general list… but I rather knew that I was taxed. Could it be having that much of an effect on my control? I only say that because my aura is fine if faint (has been for some eight years.) I certainly try your energy ball idea, maybe and this is me at my most hopeful, I won’t be that far off from others.

Thanks

I think energy ball games of that specific intention are more about how much energy you have, and capacity isn't necessarily the same as control.

Capacity, Focus, Control, all different, and they don't mean exactly the same things as when they are applied to material matters.

The exercise cited before is great for capacity. One could argue that if you have good control, you'll be able to do the exercise, but i was able to make energy balls when I first started, and had poor control myself. The best measure of your control of energy is how well you control your thoughts.

To test focus, simply hold a particular energy for maybe ten minutes - ten minutes and I'd say you've got exception focus.

A good way to test control is to localize a point of energy in one point of the body, then shift it to another point, another, and another, and so on. When the shift is basically instant (vs. taking a moment to 'warm up' in a different spot) you have exceptional control.

All of those are good things to understand about your capabilities with energy.
