When applying Feng Shui to your life, there are several approaches. You may be planning to move to a new home, or even to build a new one, in which case you will have a blank canvas on which to work. More often, you will already be settled in a home, but would like to have some changes or improvement with the atmosphere there or to solve some particular problems in your life. The problem-solving approach is often the most productive. It is better to focus on solving specific problems rather than to make over-all changes to your home. Make sure you don't use Feng Shui to create problems that don't exists. If life is going well, limit the changes to fine tuning. Implement one solution at a time and evaluate the result, before going on to the next one.

The first step is to spot the problem you have. If you have been living in a home for a while, please assess how your life have changed since you moved in. When people move home their lives often change for better or worse. Make lists of areas where you have had problems, and those you would like to improve. Relationships, finances and career usually figure in either or both lists. Next work out more specifically why you are having these problems. If you are in financial difficulties, for example, is it because your income has declined or your expenses have shot up? If you can't find a romantic partner, is it because you don't go out and meet people, or overwhelm those you do meet? If you don't have a enjoyment of love with your partner, is it because you don't have a love corner in your home? If your career stands at a dead end street, is it because your efforts are not being noticed or you have lost your ambition?

The answers should suggest a solution: to make more money or cut down expenses, to be more sociable or less aggressive, to be more sexy, to be more assertive, to be more motivated or set your horizons higher. Only now can you begin to think of applying Feng Shui to make sure your environment is helping you to achieve your aims rather than frustrating them.
