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.

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.

Well I have found the problem, NO focus. I lasted two minunts. Had a friend time this. By your units, I think that my control is good. But one question, is the point of energy supposed to roll to the next spot or is it supposed to be "poping up", disipering then "poping up" once more?
